Unlike many of the other reviewers I don’t have an issue with the pay to progress nature of the game, I understand the developers want to sell a product. I’ve been playing this game for quite a while and I have had a ton of fun playing and introducing my family to the game. I don’t like those types of words and feel that hey are not needed because it takes away from the quality of the game. The only other concern I have is the occasional foul language in the story. This causes a lose of energy which is frustrating. I have also encountered a few times that the ads did not load and it went on for me to start playing the scene once I start the playing then the ad will pop up kicking me out of playing the scene. Sometimes the ads won’t load it will just sit and spin. It takes 30 seconds for some ads to just load and that doesn’t include the watch time for the ads. The one thing that is bothersome a little is the time it takes to watch the ads and for the ads to load. It has become just as much fun to decorate the island as it is to play the scenes. At first I didn’t understand the benefits from having the decorations however after playing for a little while I slowly began to understand. I do opt to watch the ads so that I don’t use as much energy per game play. There are options to buy diamonds, decorations, etc in the game however the developers have created it so that purchase isn’t a must which is nice. Recently I started listening to the podcast as well and it’s a good addition to the game. I like that there is a story with the hidden object scenes. I’ve shared with friends and family how fun this game is. I have been playing this game for a while and I love playing. Part of this is because of the stay at home orders, I have had more time to play - with that in mind, I hope the developers will be adding more upgradable buildings (these really help with not getting board waiting to build up coin to buy decorations and then waiting for them to build- which can take 4-5 days to do that- all while having to replay the same scenes over and over) especially since the garden items that are possible with 5-star boxes seem to be feast or famine - my husband has received 4 frog fountains and 3 light posts from boxes, while I have only been able to get 2 frogs and 1 light (and I play way more and am about double his level) I know it’s random chance, but it does get frustrating at times. (I have spent real money in the game - not a tone, but a bit and even with that, I am stalled. So I either have to buy a bunch of cheaper decorations that I don’t want because I have more than I want now or spend many days replaying the same scenes. I have had to spend all of my Gems to speed up buildings because it takes so long for the higher flowered items to build. I have all the upgradable housing, and it cost so much to open the next scene that I can’t keep up. But the last week or so I have started to stall. I have been playing this game for quite awhile and I love it.
