jeux amusants et intéressants

### 5/5 — An upgrade?

*2026-08-18, version 1.3.36661*

I don’t know if your company takes suggestions and implements them into your games. 

One suggestion I have is for the game Sunshine Island.
My fiancé and I both play the game and we love it. However, my suggestion would be to add an option to give or sell items to people you are friends with to help out with the growth of their progress. Or at least and option to be able to sell items that others need across the platform in an open trade place built into the game. A community market to trade or sell. I believe this could help bring in more people to play Sunshine Island. 

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Can’t just lose in this game and I just LOVE the game mechanics and decorations! Its’ very well balanced game all and I’m addicted and cannot get enough

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-08-16, version 1.3.36581*

Free cash app is where I found it

### 3/5 — Great game, bad customer service

*2026-08-13, version 1.3.36581*

Been playing this game for about a month and really enjoy it. I’ve made a few purchases through the game which was fine . I had an unexpected charge show up on my Apple account so I contacted Apple to look into it. Apple refunded the money and I was then suspended from the game. I reached out like the app said and they said in order to get the game restored I have to send them 9.99 through PayPal because of payment reversal. It sucked but I was like whatever I sent it. They tell me they received it but a second payment was now required of 6.99 (now I’m feeling like something is going but I want to play this stupid game) so I stupidly send it. My suspension has not been lifted and Ive been dealing with this for now close to 2 weeks. I highly recommend not making any in app purchases and hopefully you don’t have to deal with customer service should something occur. I’ll keep this review updated if progress is made.

Update 
A few days after review was made my game has been unsuspended and working fine. I will not make in app purchases and hope I don’t have to deal with customer service again. I have altered my 1 star rating to 3 because the game itself is very fun .
