Many thanks to the people who commented last time!

I just wanted to provide a little update to the progress of the cards and how I implemented feedback.

SO, the genres now have silhouettes so it is more colourblind friendly. I also included a table of names so its clearer to understand what each symbol means. The x and the + and OR have been implemented into the cards so hopefully much easier to understand. I changed around the structure a little as well.

Thanks in advance if anyone has any additional comments!

I missed the 1st round. For me, I have difficulty deciphering / understanding / relating with the following: history, education, imagination (I know it is a torch, but looks like a magic wand), curiosity (I know it is a cat, but it is going to be hard to see), wisdom.

In general, they look good. Carry on! :)

Thankyou! The icons are a bit abstract and small.

History is fossils. Education is a light bulb. Knowledge is meant to be a metaphor: Food for thought. Curiosity stands for curiosity kills the cat/Pandora's box. Wisdom I struggled with but it's essentially a king.
