And for those " supercell wants to make money with purchases of gems" or " 5 gems is hardly worth it" and for the latter your right for the gemmers who rush their base 5 gems is nothing compared to what they spend. But on the other side of the spectrum are the grinders who level up the old fashioned way. And yes trees and bushes give you gems. But it is better than even if they saved up their gems it still wouldn't out weigh the time and resource cost it takes to grind through a level. no reward system at all. Make leveling up matter and fun. Numbers can be altered or whatever I just wanna see a point to having a level.
