This category covers precious and semi-precious stones, covering the full spectrum from the most familiar jewellery gems to specialist mineralogy vocabulary.

How to Solve Gemstones Levels
Every Word Salad Gemstones level puts 16 letter tiles on a 4x4 grid and asks you to find all the Gemstones-themed words in the pool. Tiles are shared across answers - the same physical tile can appear in multiple words - so the pool needs to contain only the maximum count of each letter required by any single answer, not the sum across all answers. This means you should always think of the pool as a reusable resource, not a one-time allotment.
The most frequent letters across all 50 Gemstones answers are A, E, R, T, O. Focusing on these letters when scanning the tile grid will surface the most words per unit of attention. Gemstone names frequently feature uncommon letter pairs like PH, ZZ, and LL. Spotting these unusual pairings in the tile pool is the fastest path to identifying rarer answers.
When you reach the last one or two answers in a level and cannot identify them, work through every unused starting letter systematically. The answer list on each level page (linked from the grid above) confirms every answer in the game. Use it as a fallback - knowing an answer and learning something new is better than getting stuck and abandoning the level.
