Star Reward Coins are one of the main currencies used in the revamped Star Rewards system in Adopt Me. You can collect these coins simply by logging into the game and then use them to unlock different rewards, including potions, gifts, building upgrades, and special eggs. If you want to get the most valuable items from Star Rewards, knowing how the coins work is important. Some rewards are cheap and easy to replace, while others require saving your coins for several weeks.
How to Get Star Reward Coins in Adopt Me
Getting Star Reward Coins is quite simple. You receive one Star Reward Coin for logging into Adopt Me each day. Your login does not have to be consecutive, so missing a day will not reset the coins you have already collected.
This makes the system much easier for players who cannot play every day. Just keep logging in whenever you can, and your total will continue to increase until you have enough coins for the reward you want.
Star Reward Coin Rewards
The Star Rewards system has several milestones that require different amounts of Star Reward Coins. The rewards become more interesting as you save more coins. Here are the main rewards available:
- 1 Coin: Hyper Speed Potion
- 1 Coin: Small Gift
- 1 Coin: Temporary Aura
- 2 Coins: Small Sip Potion
- 3 Coins: Big Sip Potion
- 5 Coins: Build Limit Increase
- 5 Coins: Streak Saver
- 10 Coins: Massive Gifts
- 14 Coins: Royal Fairy Tale Egg
- 20 Coins: 2x Pet Aging and 2x Bucks
- 28 Coins: Gemstone Egg
You do not have to spend your coins immediately. Saving them for the higher-cost rewards can be a better choice, especially if you are interested in the special eggs.
How to Get Royal Fairy Tale Egg
The Royal Fairy Tale Egg requires 14 Star Reward Coins. This makes it one of the first major rewards worth saving for. Royal Eggs are more valuable than standard eggs because they have improved chances of getting rarer pets and do not contain Common or Uncommon pets.
If you are interested in collecting or hatching pets, saving 14 coins for this egg is a strong option. Since you earn one coin from a login, you can reach the Royal Fairy Tale Egg after 14 coins if you do not spend your currency on earlier rewards.
Gemstone Egg
The Gemstone Egg is the most expensive Star Rewards item, requiring 28 Star Reward Coins. Because of its higher price, you will need to save your coins for a longer period before claiming it. The Gemstone Egg can hatch several valuable pets, including Ginger Cat, Starfish, Orca, Golden pets, and Diamond pets. This makes it a more interesting long-term goal for players who enjoy opening eggs. One Gemstone Egg effectively requires 28 days of collected login coins if you spend nothing along the way.
Amethyst Penguin
One of the biggest reasons to save for the Gemstone Egg is the Amethyst Penguin. This Legendary pet is extremely rare, with a reported hatch chance of around 0.05%. At that probability, the average chance works out to roughly 1 in 2,000 eggs. Of course, this does not mean you are guaranteed to get one after opening 2,000 eggs. Each egg has its own independent chance. Because the Amethyst Penguin is so difficult to hatch, getting one can make it a highly desirable pet for collectors and traders.
What Should You Spend Star Reward Coins On?
If you want to get the most value from your Star Reward Coins, saving for the more expensive rewards is generally the better approach.
A reasonable priority is:
- Build Limit Increase
- Royal Fairy Tale Egg
- Gemstone Egg
- Other rewards based on your personal needs
The Build Limit Increase is particularly useful for builders, while the two special eggs are better choices for players who care about pets and trading.
Cheap potions and cosmetic rewards are easier to skip because they do not require a large amount of saving. The 2x Pet Aging and 2x Bucks reward can also be useful, but it requires 20 coins, so consider whether the boost is worth delaying one of the special eggs.
How Long Does It Take to Get the Eggs?
Since you receive one Star Reward Coin per login, the cost of each egg gives you a simple idea of how long you need to save.
The Royal Fairy Tale Egg costs 14 coins, meaning you need 14 collected login rewards if you start from zero and spend nothing. The Gemstone Egg costs 28 coins, so it takes 28 collected coins under the same conditions.
The important part is that the coins you have already earned do not disappear if you miss a day. You can simply continue collecting them when you return to Adopt Me.
Is It Better to Trade or Hatch the Eggs?
This depends on what you want from the Star Rewards system. Hatching the Royal Fairy Tale Egg or Gemstone Egg gives you a chance to obtain pets that you can keep or trade, but there is always an element of luck involved.
Trading the egg instead can be a better option if demand for the item is high and you would rather receive another pet or item immediately. On the other hand, collectors may prefer keeping the egg or taking the chance of hatching a rare pet.
Before making your decision, consider the current demand and what you actually want from your Star Reward Coins.
Star Reward Coins give Adopt Me players another reason to log in regularly. Since you earn one coin from each login and your collected coins do not reset when you miss a day, the system is fairly easy to progress through without needing to play every day.
For most players, saving toward the Build Limit Increase, Royal Fairy Tale Egg, and Gemstone Egg is a good strategy. The Gemstone Egg is especially interesting because of the extremely rare Amethyst Penguin, while the Royal Fairy Tale Egg provides an earlier opportunity to get better pets.
