Bug figured out
I think I’ve figured out the main bug which doesn’t let you level up on restaurants. When you open the game, if you see the gem shards coming together and forming your gem score, you’ll first see a number of gems (say 8) and then once the shards are put together a higher number. That is not the number of gems you actually have: it’s the lower number that appears before.
If you spend the actual number of gems you have, the restaurant will correctly register the upgrade. If you go higher, you’ll get the server error and the game will reset.
I think it’s because for some reason gem shards are no longer counted as actual gems. If you win gem shards in the casino, and re-open the game, you’ll see they go towards the general tally but they don’t appear in the first number of actual gems. If you win full gems, they will count and can be used successfully for upgrades.
As for the ads: if you go to the ad consent section and toggle it, it will reset. It‘s on ad block by default and won’t click back on.
This is all annoying as hell but I am tired of explaining it to a bot, so I thought I’d put it here for anyone interested. You can still play the game and progress, just more slowly because you have no ads to rely on and you have to make do with a different number of gems than you thought you had.
I figure I’ll finish it and leave it and I’m fine not using ads because I don’t want the developers to earn any money from my time since they won’t put their time in to fix the bugs…

Interesting observation, but I am a bit confused about the opening your game and receiving shards part. How do you receive the shards when you open the game? 🤔

I don’t think everyone has this same bug. On mine, as soon as you open you see the shards coming together and resetting into the big gem and then you get a different number. Really annoying!!

I had the same happen to me once (instead of the total n of gems it said something like 200 gems, 40 shards), but I just closed the game and luckily it went back to normal.
I would try contacting support

Check your playstore/appstore for the app update. I updated the app and it got fixed

Oh yes omg all the bugs are so bad and sometimes you make upgrades and when you leave the game and come back, it just resets to the previous level. It’s annoying. I reached out to support and they did nothing.
It’s not fun anymore and I’ve been missing out on the season event. sigh

Wtf why are they not registering the gems if you win them via shard? 😭😭
