HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (312 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Price and subscription19%

★★★★★ So be aware players do not buy emeralds you'll just be wasting money because chapter 11 is all there is and you cannot even start the game over to at the least get compensated for any emerald purchases made .
★★★★★ Buying a second cooking slot for 10 gems (purchased with real money) seemed ok before I did it.
★★★★★ got over a hundred of real money into this game and can never finish it.

★★★★★ However, giving me a time limit to complete quests to move the game forward and needing emeralds to speed up the growing process to even complete the quests on time is ridiculous!
★★★★★ remove the gem system and make the game one you have to pay for.

Store description

Being stranded on a remote island has never been so entertaining! After a shipwreck, your main goal is survival, although getting off the island would be great too. But first you must step up and become the leader of the castaways to prevent chaos and ensure everyone’s well-being. Build a fish farm to catch eels, a quail farm to cultivate poultry and a crab farm to trap shellfish. Also, create a clay pit and a liana farm to source the building materials needed for shelters. Track down rare plants for your magic potions, and be mindful about protection while exploring the island. But it’s not just about keeping safe, dry and well-fed. To escape the island and return home, you must decipher bizarre markings on the ground, collect ancient statues, kill a crab monster and unravel this mysterious island’s dark secrets! Good luck! ● A stunning tropical island to explore ● Over 1000 challenging quests to complete ● 40 types of resources to prep and store ● 33 original and engaging characters to meet ● 28 delicious native dishes to master ● Five magic potions to concoct: protective, transfer, speed, immortality and spirit protection ● 11 farms to build: a fish farm, crab farm, clay pit, lumber mill, liana farm, quail farm, boar farm, ram farm, stone farm, eel farm and a stick plant ● Collections of trophies and statues to piece together ● Game Center Support ● iPhone XR Display support ● iPad Pro Display Support While this game is absolutely free to play, you have the ability to unlock optional bonuses via in-app purchases from within the game.
