Clash Royale – How to get free gems and gold

Clash Royale is the latest game in the Clash franchise by Supercell Oy (the first one, of course, being Clash of Clans). Just like in its predecessor, gold and gems play an important role in this MOBA/card battler hybrid, except possibly even moreso. They’re rather difficult to come across at times, but gold and gems are very valuable and can earn you more cards and other various goodies. Read on for some tips on how to get free gold and gems in Clash Royale!

One of the main ways to earn free gems is by completing the achievements. Tap on the icon that looks like a blue ribbon in order to bring up the achievements. Complete one of them, and then go back and collect your reward for free gems. Otherwise, if you go to the menu there won’t be any rewards but you can still use it to find out what you need to do to earn more gems.

The normal chests give you 20 or so gold, as well as a semi-decent chance at gems. Normal chests are the ones that reappear every few hours or so. You can earn them from battle, but not all that often. Bizarrely, it’s far more common that you will end up earning silver chests during battle.

Silver chests have an even better chance at earning free gems. Gold chests, even moreso, and then magic chests, still even moreso. The crown chests, which are available once every 24 hours or so and then require 10 crowns earned in battle in order to get them, earn you goods equivalent to a gold or magic chest, so collect these chests as often as you can as well.

The better the goods that are contained inside of the chest, the more than you will earn when you open it, but the less common it will be to find. In addition to the gold chest, you can get a giant chest, and in addition to the magic chest, you an get a super magical chest as well.

Finally, if you want to earn free coins and free gems, take a gift card for iTunes or Google Play that you got for your birthday or Christmas, and use it on this game. Do so and you will be set to go for awhile. The only Cardinal rule with this is don’t use everything up all at once.
