Love! But…
Okay so it genuinely does take a lot for me to be addicted to a game and I absolutely love this one, however I do feel like the challenges are slightly short. It only gives you 3 days to complete all 3 islands and when there is a lot of quests to do it can be difficult to get through them all, but I do appreciate the amount of rewards you can earn!
One other thing that I can’t deal with is the pop ups when you log in… I understand it’s a selling tactic, but everything you go onto the game they pop up when you’re just trying to collect your crafts etc. If it was a once or twice a day thing, understandable. But it’s every timeeee, it doesn’t make me want to purchase them more only annoys me that they’re there and it’s not one but like 4 at a time!
But in conclusion I am thoroughly enjoying the game!

Family island
I absolutely love this game but the things that you have to get to level the buildings and other things you need to get trough the levels are unreal you have to buy in to the game and then again when you buy in once you'll need to buy in more times as you still need tooo much to move on I don't think that's very reasonable it's not right having to get 16ov this and that I think you should change that part when you got on an adventure and you need this and that but cost loads and then a lot more so plz redo the missions to a more reasonable amount also change how much you need to get or build to upgrade your storage and buildings because it cost the eart and some at that I'm on a good high level and you have to wait a long time to get more energy and items other than that it's a really good game only thing is I dislike what you have to get to build or move on on another level is far tooooo much plz rethink in making it a lot more better instead of harder and more cost plz
Also stop updating every other week its getting too annoying know always have to update😤😤😤😤

Great gam
Great game very addictive but it’s hard to complete some levels without having to pay extra money and even then it’s still not enough. I have spent so much money and still can’t complete the tasks. The duplicate card task I keep getting the same ones over and over even when I paid. Some of the extra games where it selects a gift at random doesn’t ever give me the bigger prizes it gives me the smaller ones first then asked me to pay double to get the bigger ones so it’s not really spinning the wheel and picking at random is it. I don’t mind spending my real money of energy gems and cards etc but I won’t spend anymore if it’s rigged and not fair. That’s not ok. It’s is a great game but that lets it down and when it’s fair so I won’t spend anymore untill it’s fair

gets u hooked
Guys, I can’t really say much bad about the game except to get your gold coins keys your saws your pics your shovels all takes to go keys and the gold keys only come around every so many hours on the boat and you make it through the game and you have to leave all the prizes and everything be because you don’t have gold keys open the chest and you can never finish a island because you have to keep stopping to build up energy or the worst thing about the game and it’s my most complaint every time you’re running low on something it pops up they want you to spend money for keys they want to spend money for energy. They want to spend money for everything, some people don’t have a lot of money they live on a tight budget so I mean it’s a great game. I love the game it’s just they get hooked on the game and then they bring out this word they make money off you only getting two hours 2 1/2 hours, I mean and you could get on some chest take 34 so you can’t build up nothing else or your soul or shovels or nothing because you need to go keys and man get you hooked on energy they give you energy you can win energy but then you start getting stuff you need and you run out of energy, then the screen pops up by energytry the game yourselves and see if it’s what you expect. I might have to switch off to another game and play it until they start getting money.

Dunno how it plays. Didn’t get a chance.
I was disappointed with my download of this game. I initially downloaded it due to seeing some ads and it looked interesting. It seemed some effective marketing people got me there there. However after downloading it, I couldn’t get past the load screen. It took quite a while to build to 100 (at a rate of one percent per second), which I thought a bit kind but suspected it just needed to load all the data initially. But then it just seemed to hang. After waiting a significant time for it to do something I closed the app and started again. It reloaded at the same rate, and then when hit 100 percent nothing. Just the loading screen with the man from Ireland, and the little silhouettes walking in the corner. I closed it again to check I had settings or something not preventing it and to ensure it was the right version, then reloaded it. After another approx 100 seconds to get to 100 percent, I waited another exactly 5 minutes go the game to load and at that stage I gave up. At this stage, I deleted the game, re downloaded it, opened and waited a full 2 minutes still without anything progressing past the loading screen. I wish I could write how wonderful this game is, but I truly don’t know. I can’t even get in, and unfortunately that loses my interest in it.

Don’t Bother
I used ti love this game and spent hours on it.. But as others have said on their reviews it’s all about getting you to purchase.. You used to be able to get a Key after finishing the merchants orders on the ship that was one of the great assets of this game but now the developers have even taken that away now so no other way of getting the additional tools other than winning them when you open the chests.. They used to be so helpful to finish islands and tasks..
To the developer: Please don’t even go wasting your energy replying like you have to others on here missing our points and blatantly not even answering what we have been telling you.. Either you tell us to ho check out your social media pages or you don’t even give us straight answers.. Listen to your customers you might be making money off this game now but in a while you will lose money from us all..

Stargazer
Its been nearly a month ive been playing this game. Its very interesting, the task, design, rewards after completing the task and so fort..it is become annoying when you run out of energy. And i am a player who does not gamble to buy anything for any online games just to complete the task and go on to the next level. Where in lets be real here, online games is not only created for free. It is where the creator of the game can get something in return once the players become addicted and buy the gem and anything to continue the game. Its not that they dont hear the issue, that what the game creator being rewarded by there effort of creating the ideas for us to enjoy. But unfortunately, iam one of those player dont buy any for the sake of any online games…cool game i love it, i can hold on to my get more energy, i have high tolerance in waiting hajajja “patient is a virtue”.

Good and fun game, but sooooooo many pop-ups when starting
This is a very fun game, I used to spend lots of time on it. Usually play it when there are several minutes between different things or during a short rest. But now this doesn’t work anymore. Those pop-up windows almost took off half of the play time off. So, now the cycle is: start the game ( exciting) - close lots of pop-up windows (not that exciting ) - finally closed all pop-ups and start playing but still two or three pop-ups (feels bad) - play the game for several minutes (not that interested anymore) - close the game.

Frustrating
I have really been enjoying this game for many years but have to agree with so many. There are far too many quests which cost far too much energy. Don’t suggest I join the Facebook groups. I have but there are still not enough tips that can magically produce energy unless you spend a fortune. I constantly create food but run out of salt which seems to be the key ingredient in one way or another for food. I’m a pensioner so possibly have more time than a lot to play but you really need to be able to be playing at least every hour and a half to collect all the energy which builds up. It’s just not do-able. We all know you need to make money but I watch loads of adverts which you will be paid for but still nowhere near enough energy is created. We made tribes for no apparent reason. Just wasted rubies doing this. All in all, I can only play at a snail’s pace. I refuse to line the pocket of the developers from my pension.

I used to like it more
Be smart. Don’t start.
I started playing more than a year ago. I originally thought events would be short and occasional. I quickly realized that events were long and more than just frequent. In fact, there is always an event island. ALWAYS. At first there were very few or no pop ups saying that I could give them money… $2, or 9.99, or even $20… I was so excited to pay for people to make the events that happened so frequently that there was no excitement to see that there was an event. They say that you can get energy producing decorations by completing events. It takes so much energy to complete an event that I gave up on completing events. I also learned that most the energy items are limited use anyway. When I first started I was excited to make meaningful progress to developing a thriving island that I can explore. I’m not sure that they have given access to the entire whole island to any players. The characters can go to a new island every few days and demolish huge barriers but they can’t seem to cross a bridge on their own island to see what is right next to them… So I can make meaningless progress, spending energy and golden tools where it does little to no good, while their actual home collects stumps and disarray because there is no more energy left and there are no more golden tools. I’m not sure how well thought out this plan was.
