Tiny Island Survival 9+

This game is so much fun. If you like stardew valley, you’ll love this. I’ve been playing it for 24 hours straight. I’ve a lot of satisfying progress. Updating weapons and raising money and gathering raw materials are all challenging but not frustrating!!! I’ve played so many games where upgrading takes so long and is frustrating because the game either wants you to bypass it with ads that give you rewards or buy coins from them. This is not that. There is an option for opening a treasure chest with coin for an ad but I decided I wanted a challenge and it’s great that you don’t have to rely on that. ALSO!!!! MINIMAL ADS!!! I cannot scream about this enough, all of the pop up ads are max 5 seconds long by the time you click the x and the only ones that are 30 secs are the ones you opt into. They are not in your face and overly frequent. I was surprised at how short they were it was refreshing. Also nice not having the app push you to pay money for everything like I’ve mentioned before. ALSO THE GAMEPLAY. AAAAHHH. It has a simple design and controls and straightforward game but you just keep uncovering more and more layers to the island that are fascinating and make you want to discover more. It is so fun and so simple thank you developers this is an AMAZING find in the app store.

Thank you for the great review!

I’ve been playing for about 8 hours straight and I love this game. It would be awesome if every time you upgrade your tools or hearths you could really see it getting better like a visual change or sparkles or even make skins that you can win over time (for character and tools). Give the tools attributes like critical damage or aoe damage, or even maybe life steal for the sword. Also something like lucky mining or something similar. Also add items like boots that will make you run faster or armor that would make you stronger against monsters or even ad new weapons like bows, guns etc…

It would be amazing if went you and out in one island you can build a little boat as a final goal and go looking for different islands where you can start again and have different challenges. With this the game will become almost infinite my making it harder to progress every time you advance to a different island. It would be cool if there was different minerals and material for different islands so that your tools would look different.

Overall I really enjoyed this game, I think is the developers find a way to add more stuff but still keeping the simplicity of the game this game could be one of the best apps in the App Store.

Thank you for the detailed review! I thank you

So far, the game is great. It’s the perfect time killer and it’s fun to explore and unlock new resources or npc’s across the map. However, there are a few tweaks that I really think the game could benefit from. First off, either give us a way to speed up ore generation wether it be an upgrade through gold coins or materials, or just speed it up in general. When upgrades start to require more than 10 pieces of an ore it’s extremely sluggish having to wait while you just farm extra wood and stone that you don’t need. Second off, please add a gate in the upper right barrier between the iron and the silver. It’s annoying having to run across the perimeter of the map just to get one resource that takes super slow to spawn. Even when you have barriers around both ore generators to protect it from mobs the fact that you have to run around the map just to get to them is sluggish and annoying. Or possibly give us a way to increase movement speed as the character is really slow. That could be an upgrade too and it could cost gold coins or material. One more thing that’s more of a quality of life rather than critical game mechanic change. Allow us to pin upgrades so while we are out collecting resources we can look in our inventory or maybe a whole new tab and see exactly how many resources we still need to make our upgrade.

Thank you for your review!
