Blast to the Past Hidden Gems

Normal Hidden Gem
The Hidden Gem for Blast to the Past is found during the second grind vines section. After going around the first bend, you'll encounter a spot where you have to jump left to a Box. Immediately jump back to the right to land behind the tree log to where this Hidden Gem is.
N.Verted Hidden Gem
The N.Verted Hidden Gem is found in the section just before the second grind vine sequence. Towards the end of this section you'll run across some leaves guarded by some Sweeping Vicious Viners. After the second one will be an Arrow Box on your right with a Bounce Box and two Locked Boxes. You'll need to spring high off the Arrow Box and while going around the Locked Box, then move back above it to get the Gem.
The Gem is visible in the picture above at the top of the frame, to give an indication of how high up it is: you can't just Double Jump from atop the Locked Box!
Fossil Fueled Hidden Gems
Normal Hidden Gem
The Hidden Gem in Fossil Fueled is found in the early jungle section where you learn how to control Cortex. After turning the first Jurassic Flytrap into a Block, you'll get to the spot where you're taught how to use Cortex's boost ability over a foggy gap. The bottom of this gap is actually safe to be in: you'll find the Hidden Gem hidden behind the tree stump you jump from.
N.Verted Hidden Gem

The N.Verted Hidden Gem can be found immediately after the bit where you cross a giant lava river by morphing Killer Wasps into Blocks. Once you get to the other side you'll find a Bounce Box and a TNT Box on the right, guarded by a Jurassic Flytrap. Morph the Flytrap into a Bounce Block, then spring high and Boost over the TNT Box to get the Hidden Gem!
Dino Dash Hidden Gems
Normal Hidden Gem
Dino Dash's Hidden Gem is found at the sixth Checkpoint, at the lava section just after the second T. Rex chase. If you stand at Checkpoint 6, pan the camera right and you should see on the far right side of the screen this Gem sticking out from a piece of background scenery (you can see this in the first screenshot above).
Head forward past the Aku Aku Box, drop down the ledge, then walk Crash "into" the screen and then right. This will get him behind the scenery and collect the Gem!
N.Verted Hidden Gem
The N.Verted Hidden Gem is found at Checkpoint 3, just after the first vine grind but before you encounter the T. Rex. Jump over the mushrooms and the pit, then walk up to the rib bones you can Spin through. Walk left into the log to collect the Gem!
Rock Blocked Hidden Gems
Normal Hidden Gem

The Hidden Gem for Rock Blocked is located in the first brief side-scrolling section earny in the level. After gliding between two rickety tree stumps, you'll land on a platform with three TNT Boxes in the foreground. Jump over them and Glide towards the camera to another tree stump, from which you Glide again to get to a safe area with the Hidden Gem on it.
N.Verted Hidden Gem
The N.Verted Hidden Gem is located in Dingodile's main side-scrolling area where he ascends the cliff. At a certain point you'll reach the right-hand side and bounce up some Arrow Boxes. Here, bounce right and over the Tricera Beetle to Spin him into the Nitro Box.
This next bit is very important. Walk Dingodile into the cliff-face to get him as close to it as possible. Then, spring as high as you can off the Box on top of the stack to the right, then Glide on the spot. When Dingodile gets the boost at the end, you'll get the Gem hidden under the leaf. This is a very tricky Gem to get because if you don't do all those three things, you can't get it.
