Tips

Do you want to hack Clash of Clans for free gems? It's important to understand that hacking Clash of Clans—that is, changing the game's code to give yourself extra resources or items—is impossible, and attempting to do so will typically result in your Android phone or computer being infected with a virus. Never use any site or service which claims to hack Clash of Clans for you, as these services are a scam to get you to download malicious apps or visit malicious web pages. This wikiHow article gives you tips and tricks to make 1000s of gems quickly and easily.

Things You Should Know

You cannot legally hack Clash of Clans and most sites that advertise the ability are malicious programs that will result in your phone getting a virus or your Supercell account being banned.
Changing the code so you have more gems isn't a necessary step, as there are plenty of ways you can get lots of gems without hacking.
Instead, make gems easily by selling your elixirs, using a gem mine, finishing achievements, and other gameplay methods.

Can I use the websites that claim they can hack Clash of Clans?

1
No, they could be fake or result in your account being banned. While countless websites and YouTube videos claim to have a one-stop solution to hacking Clash of Clans, the reality of the situation is that the game cannot be hacked.
- Don't be misled by comments on videos or sites promoting hacking. These comments are typically created by fake accounts in order to encourage others to try the hack.^{[1]

Any service claiming to help hack Clash of Clans is, at best, misleading; in many cases, these services are also scams that can steal your information or download viruses onto your computer or Android.
- Attempting to hack Clash of Clans by using a service is all but guaranteed to cause problems, whether it be because of malware or your account being reported for violating the Terms of Service.
- Best-case scenario, attempting to hack Clash of Clans just wastes your time.

Tips & Tricks

1
Avoid spending your startup gems. Clash of Clans starts you off with a large sum of gems; while you'll have to spend around half of them in order to finish the tutorial, you'll be left with the remaining gems. It can be tempting to blow these gems on as many items as possible, but remembering to be frugal is a great way to start off your game on the correct foot.^{[2]

- Gems also shouldn't be used to purchase resources or decrease building times. Again, patience is your friend when attempting to build up your gem inventory.
2
Earn Clash of Clans achievements. Achievements are perhaps the most lucrative way in which you can earn gems, as unlocking all three tiers of every achievement awards you around $100 worth of gems. You can view a list of the Clash of Clans achievements and their requirements here.
- Simply connecting Clash of Clans to the Google Play Store will net you 50 gems.
- Once you've unlocked an achievement, tapping your current level in the top-left corner of the screen and then tapping Claim Rewards next to the achievement will add the reward gems to your inventory.
3
Remove obstacles when possible. You can remove an obstacle such as a tree or a rock by tapping it and then confirming the choice. This will award you various amounts of gems ranging from 0 to 6.
- Some obstacles, such as trees, will respawn every 8 hours.
- Rocks do not respawn, so consider removing them after removing an obstacle for which you received 0 gems. This will almost always ensure that you receive at least 1 gem for removing the rocks.
4
Build and upgrade the Gem Mine. Pouring elixirs into building the Gem Mine may seem like a strange way to spend your hard-earned resources, but the Gem Mine will automatically reward you with at least 2 gems per day whether or not you play.^{[3]

- You'll need to retrieve your gems periodically depending on the Gem Mine's level. For example, a level 1 Gem Mine can hold a maximum of 10 gems before it will stop producing them. Retrieving your gems will allow the Gem Mine to resume production.
- At its highest tier, the Gem Mine can store up to 18 gems.^{[4]

5
Use Google Opinion Rewards. Google Opinion Rewards is an Android app that allows you to complete small surveys to earn anywhere between $0.10 and $1.00. Completing enough surveys will give you the cash needed to purchase more gems.
- This isn't a hack, but it's a relatively quick way to earn a small, disposable amount of money with which you can feel comfortable buying gems.
- Google Opinion Rewards can be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store.
