DragonVale uses in-app purchases to generate revenue. The game is available to download for free, but the player can pay real money to purchase items to be used in-game.


Acquiring Treasure From In-App Purchases[]

In DragonVale, the items available for purchase in the "Treasure" section of the market are:

Permanent Treasure


Limited Treasure


The purchases range from $0.99 (€0.89) to $99.99 (€89.99). Additionally, the "Treasure" section allows players to exchange 50 gems for increasing amounts of dragoncash (amounts increase as the game levels up). During each 24 hour period of the Light and Dark events before magic reset it is possible to trade five gems for 30 light magic and 30 dark magic. As there are no third-party advertisements used in the game, all revenue for DragonVale development is generated by in-app purchases. It is important to note that it is NOT necessary to make in-app purchases to experience and enjoy full gameplay in DragonVale.

There is nothing available via in-app purchases that is not available during normal game play. The purchase of treasure simply accelerates game progress for the player.

Acquiring Treasure During Gameplay[]

Dragoncash[]

Dragoncash is earned in-game in many different ways. The player can collect dragoncash by tapping on a habitat, and then tapping the "Collect" icon on the bottom left-hand corner of the screen. When a habitat has filled one third of its earnings cap, a small icon depicting a treasure chest will appear above it. At that point, the player can simply tap on the habitat to collect the dragoncash. Players also earn dragoncash through the Colosseum, or from the Dragon Track races if the player's dragon ends in the top three.
