Not a bad game. It's definitely a bit repetitive, but good when you just want to play without thinking. The one annoying piece has to do with opening treasure gates: it now takes more pick axes and shovels than saws, and there's not much use for saws otherwise. So, now I have less than 10 of the first two, and almost 40 of the saws. Please make them useful in other ways if you're not going to have them used in the treasure gates in the same way as the others.

I've been playing this game for years and it's still the only game I play daily. You can play the regular game, but they have special islands to visit with adventures to explore, prizes to win (energy, tools, bonus chests, and gems). They are constantly updating the game to bring the most authentic and enjoyable experience providing hours of fun 🎉

I played this game for a while about a year ago, but stopped. Recently, I decided to come back and I came back to a different game. The developers say everything is easier because it takes less resources to upgrade buildings and what not. But it doesn't matter if it takes only five hammers as opposed to 10 to upgrade a building if you are unable to find any wood, stones or iron on the island to build the hammer. It's a disappointment.
