The Shop, formally called Gnome Shop in the first three games, is a game mechanic accessible from the game menu, where one-use items can be purchased with Gems, a currency primarily obtained by spending real money. It is exclusive to the mobile versions, except in Kingdom Rush: Frontiers, where it is also available on Steam. The Shop has a different product lining in every game, except the first two, which share the same items.
In Kingdom Rush: Vengeance and Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance, one-use items are bought from the Items menu, while the Shop is exclusively for the purchase of gems with real money.
Currency[]
The Shop uses Gems as currency, which can be obtained in three ways:
- Each enemy, when killed, has a chance to drop a small number of gems.
- Watch an advertisement for 100 gems.
- Be bought with real money:
- $2.99: 1500 Gems
- $4.99: 2500 Gems
- $9.99: 6000 Gems
- $19.99: 14000 Gems
- $49.99: 40000 Gems
Gems carry over between levels. The player's current amount of gems can be seen near the top right corner of the main screen.
