After the first few I think each pig is 2000 gems or some large number. I’m not sure most players could cope with spending 1000-3200 gems a day on ToF, let alone many multiples of this. You do win gems on the way, but not enough to replenish pig gems.”
1) Having climbed the tower daily, and tracked how many pigs I hit, I assure you, the tower is indeed random.
2) You will not hit 20 pigs (on average) on the way up. Of the 90 rooms, 19 of them have no pigs. Only 71 rooms have pigs, and the odds are truly 25% per floor. You’ll hit about 18 pigs to reach the top, give or take.
3) The progression in pig cost is: 20, 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, and then 3200 for each one after that. 18 pigs will cost 38,370 gems.
4) The guy with 83 million gems was likely playing on a jailbroken device, or an Android. It’s a common exploit, easily Googled (try “unlimited gems Angry Birds 2” as a search term). I, however, have not hacked the game or jailbroken my iPhone. I do not have millions of gems on hand. In fact, I currently only have about 43,000, all earned or paid for.
5) I *do* pay for gems. I buy the $10 letter every month, as they are the cheapest gems out there (about a third the cost of buying them in bulk), though it takes time and discipline to save them up to the point where they can be useful.
