Yes, you're correct. however those items aren't needed to finish the game, or to progress. The only items that cost solely gems that I can think of are the gem gifting tree, and MAYBE the second breeding island. Can't remember since it's been so long.

I agree that the combat is neat in DC, but not that complex. It's a simple math system. As for breeding advice, everyone know's that's free on the net. I just don't see why forcing someone to spend $20 just to unlock an island you can't use is being done. The islands in DC are tiny, and in the cast of the 4th, really tiny. With what, 241 dragons or so? There's no way you can display them all.

I just feel forcing a $20 purchase to access an island you can't use without unlocking more stuff just isn't right, even from a business perspective. The game has plenty of ways to use the gems you get//purchase.
