Kingdom Two Crowns lets you build a mighty base and fend off the money-hungry Greed, but some of these constructions may require gems.

But don't worry Monarch, here's how to get gems in Kingdom Two Crowns and make your building work a lot easier.

As it stands, Gems can only be obtained by exploring the maps you spawn on. Regardless of which DLC you’re in, Gems are obtained through exploration and are dropped from Sparkling Chests, which can spawn sporadically throughout the forested areas of any given map. For challenge runners who love Kingdom Two Crowns’ Lost Island mode, there’s a catch that makes it a little different from the usual game modes.

Gems on Lost Island maps do not spawn, and neither do the chests that contain them. Instead, players can obtain Lost Island Gems from the Gem Keeper, who sells them for a handful of coins each.
