What was wrong with scavenging resources from other islands like before? Not a fan of this new version ### 4/5 — perbaikan *2026-08-30, version 2026240.1.93019* kurangin uodate version karena memakan memori, dan perbanyak energinya ### 4/5 — Family Island - Farming game *2026-08-29, version 2026240.1.93019* Excellent ### 5/5 — Fatima *2026-08-27, version 2026240.1.93019* Me gusta mucho este juego m ### 5/5 — Relaxing *2026-08-27, version 2026240.1.93019* I like to play this game . It relaxing to play . But I would say should offer more keys, shovels, and saws , and if going to make watch videos, for stars, increase the stars, or shorten the videos. Like the surveys . The boards are fun and bright colors and different images great, fun game. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2026-08-26, version 2026240.1.93019* Entertaining when bored ### 5/5 — 에너지가 한없이 부족해요 *2026-08-26, version 2026240.1.93019* 에너지 얻는 광고도 겨우 30개만 주고, 그마저도 에너지상자는 거의 없고요. 에너지 없어서 홈이랑 다른 마을 탐험하더라도 선물상자도 문 깨야지 얻을 수 있고 하나 캐는데 에너지 100개씩 써야하는데 게임 진행을 어떻게 하라는 건가요…? 에너지 좀 팍팍 주세요 광고 1개당 에너지를 올려주던가요.. 에너지 아껴서 뭐할려구요.. 게임 진행이 원활히 돼야지 재밌게 즐기면서 게임을 하지 않을까요?;;;;; 겨우 레벨 13인데 진행자체가 안되는… 개선을 해주시길 ### 5/5 — Game lover *2026-08-26, version 2026240.1.93019* Love this game ### 5/5 — Yes *2026-08-25, version 2026240.1.93019* I love it ### 3/5 — Stomme ipad ook gwn *2026-08-24, version 2026240.1.93019* Het is een heel toffe game die ik speelde vanaf mijn acht jaar maar opeens komt er een update op mijn ipad en ik kan maar games spelen van leeftijdscategorie 12 dus dit kan ik niet meer spelen want het is 16 plus verander dit alsjeblieeefg ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-09-03, version 2026290.1.93579* This game has become a sham, everything is based on micro transactions. The Hustle Disco is a scam every first spin is the exact same. ### 1/5 — Family island *2026-09-01, version 2026280.2.93523* Never have enough lives. Time is running out on islands way too soon. Building something can take months as you have to build on the same thing up to three times. Never have enough storage. Expecting way more than a person can handle. Not enough beds to plant. When you do the challenges you get a third of gifts of what we use to get. ### 1/5 — Glitch *2026-08-30, version 2026240.1.93019* Game is good but so many glitch I don’t get energy after completing quest ### 1/5 — Great Game, Terrible Energy System! *2026-08-28, version 2026240.1.93019* This is a fantastic game, but the publisher really needs to listen to player feedback. There have been so many complaints about the energy mechanic—they should focus on addressing that issue instead of constantly asking us to interact with or follow their social media pages; it’s really annoying. We’ve already explored all the islands, yet we still don't have enough energy to continue the journey. ### 1/5 — Sudden *2026-08-28, version 2026240.1.93019* Won’t let me touch anything at the very top and keeps freezing ### 1/5 — Špatná hra *2026-08-27, version 2026240.1.93019* Nudná hra která se furt opakuje (nedoporučuju) ### 1/5 — expensive *2026-08-27, version 2026240.1.93019* game is good but too expensive to use! packages are outrageously priced, you dont get much for price paid, merchant only gives 60 energy and takes way too much energy to finish all the islands. you have gotten greedy ### 1/5 — Sucks *2026-08-26, version 2026240.1.93019* Veel te veel reclame, je kan niet doorspelen ### 1/5 — Ridiculous game unless you want to spend lots of money *2026-08-26, version 2026240.1.93019* Don’t bother unless you want to spend between $20-$30 dollars every couple of weeks to buy energy to play. Total scam. ### 1/5 — From Bad to Worse *2026-08-25, version 2026240.1.93019* Where are the 100% axes? Why are they not appearing anymore? Even the 50% hardly show up anymore. This is ridiculous. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Mostly addictive *2026-09-03, version 2026290.1.93579* I gave 5 stars because I have to play this game multiple times a day and right before bed! Problem has become ads: they have started ads that don’t end. This causes you to have to play the cute game ads. No pry it today that didn’t end either. The screen sat there a full minute until I closed the game and restarted it!!!! ### 5/5 — Totally addicted *2026-09-02, version 2026280.2.93523* Been playing for a few years now and I am absolutely addicted. Can become pricey but you can very much move forward in levels without spending any money at all. ### 5/5 — Really fun *2026-08-31, version 2026280.2.93523* I have enjoyed this game for a few years although it did surprise me when my island changed to an empty island and I had to start again. ### 5/5 — Amazing Game *2026-08-30, version 2026240.1.93019* Family island is the most fun and easy game I’ve ever played ### 5/5 — Fun game *2026-08-29, version 2026240.1.93019* I have been playing this game when it first came out even I still play it when the new version came out. ### 5/5 — Love this game *2026-08-28, version 2026240.1.93019* Perfect game for relaxing and passing time ### 5/5 — Love *2026-08-28, version 2026240.1.93019* Absolutely love this game it passes the time and it’s fun ### 5/5 — Problemas com o desenvolvimento *2026-08-28, version 2026240.1.93019* Não consigo atualizar, já fiz de tudo, inclusive desinstalar e instalar e a resposta é a mesma. Pede para atualizar e quando vou atualizar não tem nada para atualizar e continuo sem poder jogar ### 5/5 — Farming *2026-08-28, version 2026240.1.93019* Been playing this game for years I’m addicted. It’s fun, exciting and you never know what’s gonna happen next ### 5/5 — Family Island *2026-08-27, version 2026240.1.93019* Love love love this game!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
