What’s hiding beneath the stone? Your boss takes the shop’s earnings, so for a stash of your own, sneak a few good finds home.
Break the rock. Spare the gem.
Tap to test the surface, charge a heavier blow and rotate the stone. The rock hammer, chisel and sledgehammer each have their jobs; learn how hardness and cleavage affect each gem before a strike cracks—or shatters—the prize.
Take the offer, or take another swing
With the Window talent, a glimpse of color can bring an offer from a buyer. Cash out while the stone is still partly hidden, or keep going to discover what it’s really worth.
Clock out. Make something of your own.
You can only stash a few gems each shift. At home, choose from six cuts, time your polishing and craft rings, earrings, necklaces, brooches and crowns—wear them for bonuses, or fill black-market orders to pay down your debt.
Turn silhouettes into a collection
Discover rubies, sapphires, jade, opals, insect amber, geodes and meteorites, and rotate each find to inspect its luster. Fill your gem codex and unlock talents for a sharper eye, finer craft and more room to sneak finds home.
