# Level System

The **Plooshy Gems** that you are able to extract from the **Plooshy Crystals** in the garden of some homeowners during Quick Time Events can be handed in at any time in the Arcade to level up your **Plooshy**. 

A higher level also means a higher XP value. This XP value is then used as a multiplier in [Soft Staking](/plooshy-points-pp/soft-staking-for-nft-holders.md) so that you can passively gain more points there.
