Don't waste your money and time!!! This game used to be fun — now it feels like a scam. Package prices have skyrocketed, and progress is nearly impossible without paying ridiculous amounts. Creating items and collecting cards now demands a fortune. It’s turned full pay-to-win. I used to love it, but the joy is gone. What was once relaxing is now frustrating and greedy. I give them one star because they recovered my account. What a steep downfall. 500 bucks to get those useless cards...

I like the game, but it's really frustrating when it's going to take 50,000 energy to make 10 of one item. I don't spend money, so sometimes it takes days to do one thing. Then, you can't get enough resources to make things to upgrade the home island. Also, the mysterious doors where you can get lots of energy are hard to open. Some need like 18 each of shovels, axes, and keys! Update: new set of islands are even worse! No more gifts of energy. I'm about ready to remove the game.

I hate the update. Some good things are larger storage, faster food growth, quicker items being made, simplifying the order board, & an additional resource (beaver). The negatives are, taking away items already earned in previous versions, adding a cow feed bag, & limiting rocks, sticks, & clay to home island. Adventure stuff looks the same, but not, for ex. it's granite not rocks. That beaver is stingy & you can't get what you need, slowing progress. Regeneration is slow. The game is not fun.
