Top Game!
Mon Dec 25 2023 PaganwitchIAI have been playing this game for years. I honestly cannot ever see myself not playing it. The reward system is great. I love how if you choose to purchase things, the game keeps track and rewards you for being loyal. I just got a new iPad, and I am so excited to start the adventure again. The variety of mini games is unmatched by any game of its type. They are also quality mini games. The cooking challenge is my favorite. Aside from that, there is so much to do! I love exploring and digging up that treasure under the plants. The hunt is so satisfying! They continuously update the game and make improvements.
The best thing is, they have actually used my suggestions that I have left in reviews. My game went wonky for a while on my phone so I contacted them. They responded, worked on the issue, and although it took some time, there it was back and running one day with a message letting me know it was fixed. Please don’t stop updating this game! I am a loyal supporter. I want to thank the developers, and all of the people that keep this game up and running. This game has given me hours of entertainment.
Got scammed
Sun Dec 10 2023 Maserati91This game is actually pretty fun to play. There’s many places to adventure to, I’m not sure of the story line because I usually just skip through it. There are many ways to make energy however the amount of energy to claim is usually half the amount and when you move on to the next level you only receive 8 points of energy. Okay, no biggie as I said there’s many ways to come up with the amount of energy. So, in the beginning I thought it was just a glitch but whenever I would play and win a game it would say I won a certain amount of blue energy or the purple gems but I never actually received them. I also have spent real money into trying to level up. The game gives lots of discounts however I think they give you that amount but make you assume you’re actually getting the correct amount but youll end up just paying real money.
For instance I bought a discounted offer to activate an offer so whenever I won it would give me the purchased part of the reward and then part I would have gotten even if I didn’t pay. I was supposed to receive 200 blue energy and when I replayed the ball drop I realized I wasn’t actually getting the amount I was suppose to receive. They do it like that so that way you’ll spend more real money.
It’s a shame cause it was pretty fun.
Love this game, but crashes constantly and developers are unresponsive to problem
Tue Mar 21 2023 Social Worker 11Hello, ever since I first downloaded this game it has crashed repeatedly. I reached out to developers, who offered suggestions. I followed them in order and the problem got worse. I then stopped hearing back on my help ticket. I had meanwhile spent real money in the game. I wrote to them on their website to report that the crashes had escalated and that I could no longer get the game to open. They wrote back and said someone would get back to me in 24-48 hours. I kept trying to open the game for days and finally got back in, though the crashes kept getting worse. Today I opened my email back up for the support ticket and replied to it, to ask for an update—it had been open for 5 days with no response. I got an email back which said my ticket had been closed. Meanwhile if I can open the game at all, as soon as I start clicking things the game crashes. This alternates with the game not opening at all. I then reset my device and try again and it crashes. Please help!!!!
HORRIBLE TREND!
Sat Sep 25 2021 UrtinyfriendFirst.. I’m seeing so many ads now where someone is in a bad situation so they move into a shack and try to fix it up. And that’s not really what the game is about. Second.. the horrible situation is an abuse situation where a woman is pregnant and the husband or boy friend leaves them or even HITS them and leaves!.. a boss fired them and hits them .. or a woman and child end up in custody battles.. this one is no different. Some dude shoved the woman and now she lives in a shack. Well how does that promote the game??? Seeing sad possibly real life situations isn’t entertainment to me. I will down load any and all games just to give them ONE STAR if that’s how they want to advertise! No need for ‘feed back to improve the game’ this is just out right WRONG!! If people just advertised what the game actually WAS there wouldn’t be a problem. And 99.9% of these games are match 3 or merge. And yet we never see that part of it. I just want to see honest advertising. I will commend any game for actual game play in the ad. I hope more people agree with me and do the same.
Wow.. just saw another ad for this game and a woman gets kicked by some dude off a cliff. Good way to earn another 1 star rating from me. Seems like so many other games are advertising the same way. Nearly identical ads. Why is this abuse a trend??! So sad that no one actually advertises their actual game any more.
Not enough energy for tasks
Tue Mar 28 2023 DeePry4I really like this game a lot and play it often. (Also want to note that I’ve spent a bit of money on this game). Devs update it often and there are always new events to play, which I love! My only complaint - and it’s kind of a big one - is the daily energy bar is just too small to actually complete the tasks required. You get 100 energy points and often 1 single action costs over 50 energy. Great - so I can play for 2 minutes and then have to wait hours to play again (unless I want to watch hours of ads to get 10 energy for 30-45 second ads, not worth it). I get this is most likely to get ppl to spend money, but unless this is fixed I don’t really recommend the game as there are others similar to this one out there. Devs - if you could even increase the daily energy bar to 250, I’d be happy to add 2 stars bc it really is a great game and the dev team seems to be quick to respond. I just can’t give this game 5 stars bc of that. Until something is done about the amount of energy you get, I’ll keep this rating at 3 stars ONLY bc I like the game so much. Happy to update my review if this changes!
Not made for IPad or people with full time job
Thu Feb 01 2024 Gamerr5683New review: uninstalled and reinstalled game as suggested by the creator of the game. It made the game even worse. I can’t watch any ads, go between islands, or collect gifts for energy (on limited time islands) without the game completely crashing. It has even started to crash while simply trying to make my way around the limited time island. Completely unplayable on iPad. Not worth your time. Will uninstall if an update isn’t released soon to fix these issues on iPad.
Original review: This game crashes every time I try to go between the home island and limited time islands. It also crashes every few ads that I watch. I watch the ad and then it crashes and I don’t get the reward or the ad again. It is extremely frustrating when you continually have to reload the game. Also, the limited time games are quite impossible to complete if you don’t spend real money (even if you watch all the ads that you possibly can). Working a full time job means you can’t be on the game for the majority of the day so your energy charges up and then you get nothing for multiple hours at a time. I really wanted to love this game because the themes of the times events are fun but unless I can get on the game every two hours, it isn’t worth it.
I like this game
Wed Nov 03 2021 stephrob5I’ve read and agree with a lot of other reviews. There is a lot to do in this game which makes it fun. The sharing of resources and only using one energy bar on all islands even social events make it difficult to play. I log on to play and am on for less than 5 minutes before I can’t do anything else. Resources are gone and energy is spent very quickly on one or two things. Money and experience to level is also hard to get because resources and energy are spent way too fast. I keep plugging away and do enjoy what I do get to do. I think there needs to me more thought into the balance of things.
Adding: still love the game and play when I can which is a lot. I feel like the adventure is to actually get special dragons once in awhile. I play a lot and can never seem to get enough of the tasks done to get the special event dragons. Halloween for example I didn’t get the first island dragon and now the second doesn’t look too promising even with 6 days left. The library island was neat but didn’t even come close to that one either. It’s no fun if I miss all of the special event dragons.
I deleted this game
Tue Feb 13 2024 SrhoustonI do not recommend this game. It starts out fun with plenty of energy & manageable tasks. But once you get to level 21, the fun ends. No or insufficient energy can be found after that unless you watch hours upon hours of ads OR buy piddling overpriced packages. Walk away & find another game. Spending money on a game? Sure, I’ve done it. But NOT this game, it just is not worth it. Too little reward.
I edit this review to explain that I did not want to give this game any stars but as most “gamers” know you HAVE to rate at least one star. Also, to add two more observations - the customer support response to the bad reviews is appalling. Canned responses with no actual assistance to any issue or glitch. One response I saw repeatedly was “sorry about all the ads but we need the financial support” so everyone can play free. Really? I mean, REALLY GUYS? This game is not free. Lemme say it differently…it’s free to play for maybe a week. After that, you pay to play. It’s the only way to advance. You charge for almost everything in this game, so stop lying about it.
My final observation is that the game is not as advertised. Many have commented on this, so I won’t dwell on it, other than to note I have not seen a response from customer support on this issue.
Fun AND Frustrating
Wed Apr 07 2021 EcoMamaThe concept of this game and gameplay are great, but the way it’s set up to have limited energy and resources—not so great. To progress you require so many resources (obtained through spending energy), and there are often multiple special events going on that require the same resources. To proceed in the game you really need to spend real money unless you’re cool with just playing for a couple of minutes here and there, not completing special quests, etc. I tried buying packages with extra resources and energy and the little bit of good it did me just wasn’t worth it. I’d prefer that special holiday events and quests didn’t require the same resources that the base game uses to progress, because it’s already slow going there. Ultimately as much as I enjoy it, I get frustrated at how necessary it is to constantly spend money to keep up. It doesn’t feel like a great deal when you spend $—just like you won’t be able to get far at all if you don’t, and KEEP spending at that. I don’t mind spending money on games I enjoy, but when it feels like you can’t even complete basic gameplay without it, that’s a downer.
Great concept, but…
Fri Jul 07 2023 Galazina of ArizonaI’ve been playing this game for probably over a year. I love discovering things, especially treasures with energy. New dragons are hard to get in the time-limited events because you run out of time and energy. I was only able to complete all the tasks in exactly one time-limited event. The amount of energy required to complete tasks is more than you will get to complete them, especially if you do not want to spend real money. The thing that is becoming a deal-breaker for me is many of the ads are starting to take you to the AppStore when you try to close them. If I see one more ad for Royal Match, I think I will scream. This is a major annoyance, especially because the ads help you get more energy. Some of the items to load on the ship take too long to manufacture, so you miss out on the payout if there are items like juices, bagels or sweaters, which require too much time/resources. There are also issues with the app crashing, as many have mentioned. Sometimes the only workaround is to restart my iPad. So, if you want to play a game where you can make real progress, look elsewhere. And, what’s with the gross surgery association?
