==Gem Drops==
==Gem Drops==
Each type of block or tree in Growtopia drops a different amount of gems. This amount is usually influenced by the rarity of the block or item, but some blocks drop an unusually large amount of gems as they have been configured to. A good example of this is the [[Mystery Block]]. When one is broken, the number of gems it yields can range from 10 to 50. Another example of this is the [[Pot O' Gold]], an extremely rare block that is only available during [[St. Patrick's Week]], which can yield up to 200 gems when broken.

===Farming===
===Farming===
Farming is the process of repeatedly harvesting several trees of a specific item, breaking the blocks and planting the seeds. Usually this is done with “farmable” blocks whose trees bear 8 or more fruits; since spliceable blocks have about a 1 in 5 chance to drop a seed, a tree that drops 8 or more fruits will generally yield a greater amount of seeds after each round of farming. Gems can also be obtained through the "Break For Gems" system. In this method, the owner of an certain world will place a [[MAGPLANT_5000|MAGPLANT 5000]] on a public builder lock, allowing players to grab a remote and place blocks. The players breaking the blocks will only get gems.

Gems serve as the sole official currency in Growtopia. They can be obtained through in-app purchases, completing Tapjoy offers or through common aspects of gameplay, such as breaking blocks and harvesting trees.

Gems are spent on Broadcasts and on items that are available in the Growtopia Store, such as World Locks and item packs.

Gems group together when there is a certain amount of gems in the tile. As the value of the gem increases, the size of the gem also increases slightly (the table below, however, does not show the size difference).

Image Name Gem Equivalent
Yellow Gem 1 Gem
Blue Gem 5 Gems
Red Gem 10 Gems
Green Gem 50 Gems
Purple Gem 100 Gems

Supporter Rank

Earning 20,000 gems or more through Tapjoy offers or in-app purchases grants the player the Supporter rank. If $30 worth of gems is purchased or a total of 600.000 gems are obtained via Tapjoy offers, the player will get Super Supporter status with 4 new skin colors, the /warp command, cheaper Guild creation and a bigger name/wrench display. This Super Supporter status was introduced during the Systems Update, on September 2nd, 2016.

Gem Drops

Each type of block or tree in Growtopia drops a different amount of gems. This amount is usually influenced by the rarity of the block or item, but some blocks drop an unusually large amount of gems as they have been configured to. An example of this is the Mystery Block. When one is broken, the number of gems it yields can range from 10 to 50. Another example of this is the Pot O' Gold, an extremely rare block that is only available during St. Patrick's Week, which can yield up to 200 gems when broken.

Methods of Obtaining

There are many ways of obtaining gems in the game.

Farming

Farming is the process of repeatedly harvesting several trees of a specific item, breaking the blocks and planting the seeds. Usually this is done with “farmable” blocks whose trees bear 8 or more fruits; since spliceable blocks have about a 1 in 5 chance to drop a seed, a tree that drops 8 or more fruits will generally yield a greater amount of seeds after each round of farming. Gems can also be obtained through the "Break For Gems" system. In this method, the owner of an certain world will place a MAGPLANT 5000 on a public builder lock, allowing players to grab a remote and place blocks. The players breaking the blocks will only get gems.

In-App Purchases

In-app purchases, or IAP, allows players to buy different amounts of gems with the use of money. This is the only legal purchase in the game which involves real money. Purchasing the Gem Fountain will give the player an extra Growtoken, and purchasing the It's Rainin' Gems also gives the buyer 2 Growtokens and a Megaphone. During some events such as the St. Patrick's Week or Anniversary Week events, some bonuses may be given when purchasing gems through IAP.

Piggy Bank

Piggy Bank is a feature where players can accumulate up to 1,500,000 gems by completing:

  • Life Goals - 65,000 Gems
  • Daily Bonuses - 65,000 Gems

Once completed, the Gem Goal will not be available again until 0:00 of the next day (UTC-05:00).
