== Overview Gems ==The [[Gem board]] is a 7x7 grid of :''Main article: [[Gems]] forming ''Support cards and tokens appear on the gem board when played. Supports have a central part of [[Magic: shield value which is reduced by 1 each time the Gathering Puzzle Quest]]support is matched. In each MtGPQ gameWhen a support's shield reaches zero, the player and support gem is destroyed. The game prompts you with a possible Swap if you take some time to make your move. The prompted Swap is not necessarily the [[AI]] take turns matching best one. Gems on the Gem board can also be converted to fill activated gems or other special gems, which have various effects while in play and when matched by [[Cards#Swap|swap]] matching. Special gems are triggered when matched in a match 3, and in their hand with [[Mana]]some cases are also triggered by being destroyed in a match 4.

== Types of matching Swap ==On your turn, when you make a match by swapping a gem with its neighbor to form 3 or more gems of the same color in a vertical or horizontal row, it's a Swap match.

There are three types of gem match:== Cascade ==* ''' Swap''' - On your turn, when you make a match by swapping a gem with its neighbor to form 3 or more gems of the same color in a vertical or horizontal row, it's a Swap match.* ''' Cascade''' - When gems fall into the empty space left by previous matches, or by destroying a gem or block of gems, if they land in a sequence of 3 or more of the same color, they make a Cascade match.* ''' Convert''' - When a card converts the color of gems on the board to make a sequence of 3 or more of the same color, it causes a Gem Conversion match.

At least one Swap is always available == Conversion ==When a card converts the color of gems on the board. If to make a sequence of 3 or more of the board has no valid moves at the end of a turnsame color, it's {{Ability|Shuffle|Shuffled}}. The game prompts you with causes a possible Swap if you take some time to make your move. The prompted Swap is not necessarily the best oneGem Conversion match.

You don't get to draw another card or a second attack again.* If your move on your extra turn second swap causes another match 5, you get another extra turnthird and successive swaps* An extra turn swap is triggered whether the match 5 is a direct match [[#Swap|Swap]] or a cascade[[#Cascade|Cascade]]* An extra turn swap is not triggered by a match 5 which occurs from a [[#Conversion|gem conversion effect]].* Making two or more match 5s in a single move (match plus cascades) provides only up to 1 extra turnswap

== Matching special gems Shuffling ==Matching or hitting special gems can trigger The gem board always contains at least one valid swap. At the end of each turn, if the board reaches a variety of effectsposition with no valid swaps, the board is {{Ability|Shuffle|Shuffled}}. Special This randomizes the gems are triggered when matched in on the board to a match 3, and in some cases are also triggered by being destroyed in a match 4new state which doesn't trigger any matches.
