Gems are special Key items. They can be found in many different ways, and are used to open Gem Gates. Gems do not take up space in the Backpack. They are also used to upgrade your treasure chest.
Gem Gates[]
Gem Gates come in varying complexities, requiring 1 or more Gems of any one color. Gem Gates are placed in strategic positions on many Maps to obstruct the Explorer's path.
Gem Trees[]
Gems can be collected from the Gem Tree on the explorer's Home Island or by tending Gem Trees on Neighbors' Home Islands. These trees can be harvested daily and yield one Gem of the color of the tree. Once harvested, you can share the rest via the News Feed.
Other Sources[]
They can be given as Gifts. You can also find Gems while Digging, Fishing or using the Wishing Well, either directly or through pop-ups like Treasure Trove or Sunken Treasure. They can also be shared with Neighbors via the News Feed whenever they are found.
Many Relics you construct on your Home Island often yield Gems, as does the Gem Mine which gives up to 5 of one gem color, chosen daily by the Explorer.
You can also find Gems in various quantities by opening Locked Chests, playing the Monkey Nut side-game, or by finishing special Maps such as Fire God Mountain or Monkey Palace.
Bags containing 1 of each Gem are common Trade-in Rewards from seasonal Buildings such as the Kissing Booth or Snowman.
