Mutations

A mutation is a rare bonus a gem can have when you dig it up. Any gem can get one, common or rare.

First the game picks which gem you found. Then it rolls for a mutation, starting with the rarest. A find can have one mutation at most, and most finds have none. A mutated gem sells for more coins. For example, a Shiny gem sells for 2x its normal price.

Raising your mutation chance

Your mutation luck starts at 1. Mutation luck 2 makes every mutation twice as likely, 3 makes it three times as likely, and so on.

• Pets. Pets with a Mutation luck power add it to your mutation luck while they are equipped: Bramble Bear, Geode Golem, Lava Crab, Frost Owl, Void Moth, Corona Lion, Breeze Sparrow, Lantern Shrimp and Comet Fox. See them on the Pets page. Fused versions of some of these pets add even more.
• Mutation potions. A mutation potion multiplies your mutation luck (for example 2x) until it runs out. You can buy them with Robux in the shop, and the Merchant sometimes has them too.
• Codes. SPARKLE and CRYSTAL give a free mutation potion. See the Codes page.

Pets add first, then a potion multiplies the total. Shovels, rebirths, upgrades and game passes do not change your mutation luck.
