Polynesia Adventure 12+

This is a really great game that keeps you involved and wanting to come back and keep playing. The reason I can’t give it a 5 star is that I’m on level 17 and I’m trying to expand my buildings and EVERYTHING needs lumber. Well to make lumber, you need saw blades. The only problem is that you can only get saw blades by completing special orders on the order board or occasionally you will get them as a gift. The annoying thing about the order board is that you complete an order and get the saw blade and it doesn’t replace it with another order that you can complete to get more saw blades. You have to complete multiple other orders before you even have a chance to get more saw blades and since you’ve gotten to a higher level, the orders take a long time to complete. It really slows down the game! I wish there were a faster way to get saw blades. It would make the game a 5 star instead of 4 star in my mind!

Game is really cool but the lag time is horrible. Many times when energy sources mature you don’t get your energy and same goes for the animals and factories. I won’t be spending anymore money until these issues are fixed. I don’t mind dropping some cash to play the game but if I don’t get my supplements it’s a waste of money. When messaging the help center they basically said they are to far away and working on it. They didn’t even give me anything back that I spent or reimburse me for the lost items I never got to collect. Horrible customer service, if you want your customers to spend money be sure you can deliver.

UPDATE-looks like the developers found the problem, I was re-notified after a few weeks of the complaint that they see the issue and told me to stop playing for now. I did not respond. After 5 min they said they fixed the problem and issued me a credit for some energy. Very COOL of them and I’m happy with the response!

Like I said before I don’t mind dropping money on an app game, back in the day I would spend $50-$70 on a new console game that had an ending. These new app games have continued play time so dropping a few buck to play is like a fart in the wind when the game plays correctly and customer service understands when things go wrong!

I only just started playing the game a couple weeks ago after I got to the end of available Klondike levels. This seems to be a good mix of Klondike and Township but the response time to screen taps is super slow (I play mostly while I on my high-speed cable internet at home). Half the time you don’t get rewarded with anything for watching ad after ad after ad. After the most recent update I am constantly getting kicked out when trying to switch between places on the map or when trying to watch an ad to get a reward at home base. Can’t give it a higher rating until the glitches are fixed. Also, so annoying that the order board is constantly asking for things I can’t even make yet. Even Klondike and Township had better AI than that! It costs too much to build every building the minute it is unlocked, and I can’t earn money when I can’t fill any order!

After not quite a month of playing this game I am giving up. The glitches are too annoying. My guess is they do not have enough server space to handle the player volume.
