Screen design when searching for Museum artifacts

I am sure that many players will support me.
For many years now, as soon as the “Lucky Museum War Crafting!” event begins, players have been diligently looking for artifacts to improve the parameters of their museum. This takes a lot of time, many, many hours.

On the Artifact Search Screen, only 5 lines describing the benefits and their starting percentage are important for the player. The rest of the information is secondary.
At the same time, the description of the benefits is displayed in small print and after some time the eyes begin to get very tired because they have to concentrate so much.

The design innovations have been very good over the past year.
I am sure that your designer is able to correct this situation and take care of our eyes.
This would be a great addition to "Quality of Life".

I'm not a designer, but just as an example, I'll attach two screenshots - what the screen looks like now and how it would be better. Of course your designer can do much better :)
The main thing is that the emphasis is on five lines describing the benefits of the artifact and their starting percentage.

@Harlems369th, if possible, please include this in future additions.

When I started playing Dominations my eyes were working fine. Now, 8 years later, they aren't and I find it difficult to read the ingame chat or the artifact lines. The letters are way too small for the vast majority of the Domination players as most of us are 40+ and can't see well the objects close to us.

I 100% agree with the original post. Make letters have a bigger font

Very good offer, I'll join you! In general, designers will understand me, in the game it would not hurt to change the “serif” font to the “sans serif” font, remove the “Italic” style and make all the inscriptions a little larger. "Serif" fonts are used primarily in large blocks of text, such as in books, but not for informational one-line messages.
In reality, sometimes it is very difficult to make out what is written, and everything is also complicated by “serifs” - they get confused, for example, “1” and “4”, “3” and “8”, etc. Especially on smartphones, everything is already very small. All this together is very straining on the eyesight.

The museum action is in full swing, our eyes are once again suffering and asking to change the design of the on-screen form for searching for artifacts...
@Harlems369th, what is required for this?

You can have such big font text now simply do crafting in dominationsworld.com (web) and using a 27" monitor.
But the web version are not that responsive, sometime click not registered, better don't do war attack on dominationsworld.com

I would also like a bigger font but to me is not a big deal as I use the PC for such things.

What I would LOVE implemented though is a continuously crafting to minimize clicks. I don't mind paying the full 100 fragments for it as we got those in abundance but when you are crafting literally THOUSANDS of artifacts on events like this week any click spared is a bless.

Also we need to double click to skip the "artifact opening" every time, do you really think we watch the animations after so many openings? Please scrap that also.

It should be 1 click to craft, 1 click to sell and 1 click to confirm sell (3 total if you are selling, 2 if keeping).
Right now it's 5 clicks to sell.

I realize to some this will sound like nitpicking but this week I burned 500k fragments, it was around a 4 hour grind everyday, how do you think my hands are feeling right now? The chances of getting something usable is so small, it's a insane grind, this is NOT healthy.

Constant clicking & the need for a 'Collect All' button are the most common complaints on the forum in the last few months.
Any news on whether or not this is being seriously considered? And possibly when?

The web version of the game has a huge problem with fonts if you use a language other than English. For example, this is what a description of the benefits of an artifact looks like. There are a lot of fonts that are not displayed. I wrote about this in CS immediately after the web version appeared, but the problem was never fixed

The team is aware, but I don't have any estimation or update for you.
