The Gambler can be unlocked from the Class Shop by spending 55 Diamonds. It is among the cheapest Classes in this survival-horror title, so beginners will have no trouble obtaining it quickly.

Diamonds for purchasing Classes can be acquired by completing Badges, opening diamond chests in the Cultist Strongholds, and reaching Day 50 and 99 in the game. New players will have an easier time collecting the currency, given that Badge rewards can only be collected once.

Level-up requirements and perks of the Gambler

Players who equip the Gambler Class spawn with a random item. This is chosen by the game itself, and there's no way to influence it. You can get a Bandage, a Strong Axe, or any other item upon spawning in the wilds.

Like other Classes, the Gambler has three levels in 99 Nights in the Forest. Their requirements and provided perks are listed below:

Level	Perks	Requirements
1	50/50 chance of upgrading/downgrading standard chests on opening them	N.A.
2	60/40 chance of upgrading/downgrading standard chests on opening them	Open chests: 0/70
3	+10% chance for chests to also drop coins	Open chests: 0/150 Open ruby chests: 0/10

Leveling up the Gambler may require multiple playthroughs. Although you can find standard chests anywhere in the forest, ruby chests are a rarer find. They can be found in the deepest areas of the forest and in the Cultist Strongholds.

Note that the ruby chests, also known as strong chests, downgrade after being opened by a player. So, you'll need to be the first to spot and open one. Alternatively, you can play solo and collect all the treasure's contents for yourself.

The Gambler boasts no substantial fighting, logging, or cooking capabilities. Nonetheless, it is a fun Class for those who want to throw caution to the wind and test their luck in 99 Nights in the Forest.

The Gambler's ability to upgrade standard chests is especially useful when playing with a team. It can help others gain powerful tools and weapons before they set off to find the missing children.

Besides its potential to downgrade chests, the other downside of using the Gambler is its lack of fighting perks. The user will need to be reliant on others or quickly find powerful weapons in 99 Nights in the Forest to survive the cultist waves and wild animals.
