- A room moment: four players in the same room do the same thing - jump, wave or dance - within three seconds. Each of the four gets 35 gems, once a day, from level 3. They count in the day’s 250.
- To make one: Jump, Wave and Dance are over the Sit button - rest the mouse on Sit (hold it on a phone) to see them. The Space bar jumps too.

- Winning a Fashion Contest: 50 gems, up to 100 a week. See Fashionista.
- A day of play gives 250 gems at most - The Codfather’s orders and Jimmy’s contracts count in it. Room challenges’ own 30, fish and minerals sold (40 to 90 a day, by your Keep Net and Satchel), the Daily Login Bonus, Fashion Contest wins, medals and other rewards you win once come on top.
- To see what today can still give: My Tasks, then Today (press your picture, top left) - or My Account on the website.
What they buy
- Credits: most of the Store - clothes, characters, pets, collections, hypermoods - and the Market’s shops.
- Gems: mostly things for your home - furniture, Doorways, the At Home NPC - and potions in the swamp.
- Each thing in the Store shows which of the two it costs.
Buying credits
- Packs of credits are sold on the Get credits page, and nowhere else.
- You must be 18 or over, or a parent or guardian pays. Under 18? Ask a parent first.
- A pack can be a gift for a friend: when you pay, press A friend, as a gift and pick them. You must be level 12; they must be level 12 and your friend for at least 3 days. The credits go straight to their account.
- Never buy credits or items from another player for real money.
