Gems
More actions
Gems are the sole currency in Growtopia (besides the imaginary currency used when trading items, or the Rarity rating). Gems can be obtained through in-app purchases, completing Tapjoy offers or through common aspects of gameplay, such as breaking blocks and harvesting trees.
The Tapjoy offer wall is accesible through the Growtopia Store. It allows the player to watch videos or install apps to earn free gems for use during gameplay. Tapjoy is currently only avalible on the iOS and Android versions of the game.
Earning 1000 gems or more through Tapjoy or buying any in-app purchase makes the player a Supporter. Upon becoming a Supporter, the player unlocks the "Recycle" tool. This replaces the "Trash" tool in the player's inventory and allows them to recycle items to earn gems.

id:Gems 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, it can drop between 10-50 gems. Another example is the Pot O' Gold, an extremely rare item distributed during St. Patrick's Week, dropping up to 200 gems when broken. However, the destruction of these items is discouraged due to their high rarity (particularly the latter) and their resulting value when trading.

Farming
Farming gems is easy once you chosen a method that suits you, using sustainable blocks that drop large amounts of gems. Ideally, these are:
Sugar Cane is highly recommended, due to it being fast to break and therefore easy to farm and the large amount of gems it drops for it's rarity (24). In addition, just 30 Sugar Cane seeds can be traded for a World Lock, giving them an extremely high trade value as well.
