Ruby

Rubies are the premium currency in the game. You can use them to finish construction instantly, purchase special buildings, special tools and other items. Many special events do have to do with spending rubies, like special offers or the Gift Peddler. There are also sometimes way to earn rubies in nobility contests. There are a variety of ways for players to acquire rubies - some requiring real world money and some merely taking time. Some players consider rubies to be almost "game breaking" although this is debatable as some players see them as more of a challenge when up against a "ruby player" opponent.

Purchasing Rubies[]

There are a wide variety of ways for players to acquire rubies - the quickest being simply to purchase them with real world money via Goodgame Studios. Other methods include levelling up, by completing certain quests or simply just by logging in once a day. Players can purchase a varying amount of rubies at a variety of prices. The prices range from £0.99 for 1,500 rubies all the way up to £49.99 for 112,000 rubies.

Value of Rubies[]

In the US, 1 ruby is worth an incredibly small amount, at approximately $0.00117 per ruby. This means that for every $1 you spend, you get about 854.27 rubies. As such, $100 should theoretically buy you 85,427 rubies, however GGE offers a 52% bonus (130,000 rubies) should you spend $99.99.

The daily task, which awards 100 rubies per day, means you are working for $0.117 worth of rubies a day.

In terms of how much rubies are per coin, the Traveling merchant's average prices on coins in exchange for rubies were used.

((30000/2970)+(53000/4960)+(95000/8780))/3 = 10.5355 coins per ruby on average, so about 0.0949 rubies per coin.
