The energy system makes advancement painfully slow at the rate it doles out the energy. It is also obviously meant for cell phones. It would improve the game if you could use the arrow keys to move between screens and to scroll within screens.

There is one other possibility for the symbol of wealth. Maybe it isn't allowing you to buy it unless you have enough points to do the symbol of patience -- if that is the case then the fact that I am 10/10 symbol of patience would make it permabroken -- will continue to try and track exactly what is going on but it isn't letting me buy the symbol of wealth and in a couple of days I will be stuck because of it.
