Gravel Minions are a type of Minion that collects Gravel and Flint.

Description

Gravel Minions are unlocked at Gravel I and can be placed on the Player's Island.

The Gravel Minion collects Gravel. When the minion is equipped with a Flint Shovel, it will start collecting Flint.

Ideal Layout

Due to gravel being a falling block, there needs to be a block under the air to collect resources.
