The Elements of Harmony are a key plot item in the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic series. The term actually refers to two things interchangeably. First, it means a set of six gemstones created by the Tree of Harmony[1] that are used to protect Equestria from the forces of evil and chaos. Each gemstone represents a virtuous quality. The Elements of Harmony could also refer to the six ponies in the show who exhibit these six virtuous qualities and are magically linked to their gemstone equivalents. The six ponies (often referred to as The Mane 6 by fans) are the main focus of both the television show and the Gameloft Game.
The Elements of Harmony are: Laughter, Generosity, Honesty, Kindness, Loyalty and Magic.

The Elements of Harmony in the Game[]
The Gameloft MLP game depicts the gemstones as Harmony Stones set within ruins that are discovered during game play. One of the main objectives is to collect Element Shards resources (pieces of each element) in order to activate the Harmony Stones and ultimately defeat the game's main nemesis, Nightmare Moon.
They are also used to defeat some enemies and obstacles, such as Parasprites (in Ponyville), Changelings (Canterlot), Vampire Fruit Bats (Sweet Apple Acres), Plunderseed Vines and Cragadiles (Everfree Forest), and King Sombra's Corruption (Crystal Empire)
