Community Insight:
We love to do missions and this game is amazing to play with our daughter together and we enjoyed it.
Coming here again on our new device to appreciate this greatness.
Thanks for the upgrade great game The game is very exciting because you have to fin stuff to be able to play a gamethans for upgrade the game the game is exciting to find different piece f the game .great games, Its a very exciting and interesting game keep you thinking.
We love playing this game is addictive but no way to get gems thats what we dont like about it.
Very addictive game like puzzles resolving issues.
Need the newest update Ive finished as far as it will let us go, its a great game until you get finished with it then you steadily wait for what feels like forever for yall to update. When is the next update coming Ive been finished for about 6 months give or take a month.
We need a reset to start the game over or you could add more areas. Graphics are amazing.
Wish they would add to it. Please more levels and adventures.
We really enjoy the game. Some of the puzzles can be very difficult. 5 puzzles are a bit much. Maybe just keep them at 3. Also, if people are able to zoom in a little bit closer might be helpful. Overall, we do like the game.
Ive been waiting for many years, for the game to continue. We keep going back to all locations only to keep repeating. We already pass all challenges. Its sad you haven continue it. And we did spent money and still have diamonds there to play. :(.
Enjoying this game. Every level is so much fun and trying to gather all the items are fun.
For weeks, every time we open the game, it says we need to download an update. It gets to 2% and crashes.
We luv this game a done everything we can do an we cant go further into the game wit the big boat. Been wait for the next chapter for over 3 years. Plz have more of the new chapters out soon. Thanks.
We played this game years ago and just remembered about it again. It is still pretty enjoyable just wish there was less micro transaction.
Loved this game! Been waiting for 5/6 years for the next chapter though. Would love to know how the story ends.
Our review of the game is great! We loved playing this game and would recommend this to all of our friends. Its a good way to spend a few hours as you definitely get caught up in the goals. But we are requesting PLEASE FINISH THIS GAME! We have waited almost 2 years to get on the cruise ship. Please update the game so we can play on with our adventure.
Diamond collection hard but good game.
Thanks for the upgrade great game The game is very exciting because you have to fin stuff to be able to play a gamethans for upgrade the game the game is exciting to find different piece f the game .great games.
You need to allow more zoom ability.
Love this game. Our husband loved it so much, he finished the game and we had to start it over so we can do it ourselves.
We really like the story and the interactions but we think the gem game is a little random and after a while it just gets frustrating.
Surprisingly interesting story.
We like this game, but no closer. Because you stay there on island , dont find others survivors. But we do enjoy the game.
We find this game to be very good, even the match three, but when there is a problem, you do not get back to the customers who have problems. We were leery of downloading because of the negative reviews. It seems the match 3 games are too hard! We have had no problem what so ever and we have not spent any money either. There could be a little more interactive help, but other than that, we love it.
Kind of slow moving which we like, we just have to use a lot of crystals to get anywhere.
We think the puzzles shouldnt be so much we could see if its 1 or 2 to finish a goal but we have to 4 with not that many moves.
The quest seem kind of ridiculous.
Nice graphics we just wish the game had a explore mode.
So far great game but give the option to fast forward through the matching games.
We played this game years ago before the match 3 stuff was implemented and it was so much more engaging back then! Sometimes you had to wait quite a long time for tasks but it wasn't too bad. We really wish they would switch back to timers instead of repetitive match games. Maybe the matching game could be used to speed up the timer instead of replacing it outright.
Too many puzzles with not enough chances to solve them without making a financial purchase.
Id like a refund of our gem purchase since the game ended at level 27 with no notice. Im not going to use gems for tasks that we e already completed. While we like the game, the way that is handled is not good. Bait and switch.
After the May 2025 update, the app begins to download and crashes at 45%. Ive tried restarting our device after numerous attempts. Something is wrong with this update.
Excelente juego.us encantan los juegos que tengan que ver con Islas,bosques,selvas.son aventuras que las vivo con el juego.gracias. Espero mis cristales.
We used to play this back when we were 10. Playing this 8 years later is so nostalgic.
Not too complicated live the details but should be less time.
Fun challenging game. Hard to always figure out what to do but keeps it interesting. Cant wait to figure out more quests. We dont really understand how much more we have to write to. Lear this quest so we guess Im just going to ramble a bit to determine if it Ever will be enough.
This game has been so much fun and challenging.
Best survival puzzle game ever, when you have a crazy day, its a good game for the time being.
Didnt know what to expect from this game. It has kept us entertained and keep coming back.
When you have full amount of goods you can't continue until you get rid of some items.
Like it, not full of ads and fun to play.
Love this game, so fun to play.
There are so many games out there, but this one really stands out and is actually fun to play!!! So far the game has been everything we expected and more. Thank you for making it so realistic and engaging. 5 stars.
The game fun love it sooo much fun love it it was very hard at first but now we got the hang of it we cant play anything else.
Love it. Great game to play. Awesome.
So far a good game. Will need to play longer to see how good it is.
Are good for occupying your mind ty.
