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 7,000 gems or more through Tapjoy offers or in-app purchases grants the player the Supporter rank. If $25 worth of gems is purchased or by Tapjoy, the player will get Super Supporter status with 4 new skin colors and the /warp command since the Systems Update came out, 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. 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.
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.

Life Goals
