Storylines are great but puzzles are ridiculous
The fact that there’s over 10 puzzles per episode is just excessive not to mention how difficult they are without putting money into buying diamonds to buy power ups or extra lives. 1000 diamonds for 5 lives or 5 extra moves is ridiculous especially since getting diamonds takes forever, like why make everything 1000+ diamonds including outfits and accessories. Whole game just smells like a cash grab for easy money by scamming people. Not to mention how the puzzles seem rigged why are you only giving 20 moves to unlock multiple bags, flowers, buckets and get rid of all of the paint? Definitely need to rethink the puzzle aspect if you want people to actually enjoy it.

Disappointing
So this is really a pay to win type of game. After a certain point, you HAVE to purchase the boosters in order to barely pass levels or even get 3 stars. What you score on your level determines the “speaking” options for you character. If you get a 1 star on the level, you get a 1 star option when speaking to other Islanders. This obviously gives you a negative effect and decreases your relationships… unless OF COURSE; you used your purchased diamonds to unlock the better choice & every choice costs 500 diamonds or more 😒😤🙄

Good graphics, disappointing game
I've played (and liked) all of the Love Island games and have never left a review, but had to after being so incredibly disappointed by this game. It's clear that most of the effort went into the graphics, which are nice, and the matching game, which is way too challenging for most people.
The plot lines themselves are so messy and incomplete. I've played through Season 1 twice, once with Levi and once with Talia, but when I tried to couple up with a different person (Reese) on the third try (despite having all 3-star scenes and having good chats with him), the game *automatically* chose Levi at the next recoupling.
I was so frustrated that I quit the season and restarted Season 2 to see if I could get different endings (won with Bobby and Henrik before). Even after having all 3-star scenes and good chats with Elijah in Casa Amor, his name didn't show up as an option when considering a new partner for the recoupling (even though my character told him beforehand that she would choose him).
And even when you DO get the partners you want, the writing is sloppy and the interactions are pretty much copy and pasted for each partner, rather than giving them unique scenes. Combined with how much time and energy you need to play the game, it's not worth it. Don't waste your time (and especially money).

Puzzles
I enjoy playing Matchmaker and find it fun with the storyline and dialogue. I also like that instead of having to pay 1000 diamonds to pick the choice I want, I can just play the puzzles to get stars and pick that choice. But the puzzles also seem to be the problem for me. In the beginning, the puzzles were fun to play, but now it’s just very annoying and frustrating. The puzzles can be too hard at times and I could spend days trying to complete the puzzle instead of playing the actual game. And when I’m finally able to play the actual game and pick choices, I get another puzzle in less than 5 minutes. It takes the fun out of the game and makes me not enjoy it very much. A suggestion could be giving us the option to play the puzzle instead of having us play it and being stuck on it for days. Say I want to pick a choice while in the middle of dialogue, but the choice costs diamonds and I don’t have enough. I could choose to play the puzzle to win stars and be able to pick the choice I want. Besides this, I enjoy the game and hope more stories get added to it.

Ehh
I give this app 2 stars because it’s fairly challenging, however the storyline is unfair. You have to play difficult mini games. If you want more than 20 diamonds you have to pay money and every item costs 1,000 diamonds. I have been playing the game for almost a year now trying to beat the mini games without paying. I finally finished the game and it was so not worth it. It’s fun to just play but a game should not take a year to finish I played every day. After every one line in the book which is only like 5-10 words said there comes a mini game, they need to upgrade.
