Livly Island 4+

This game is the best thing to ever happen to me

Genuinely. I love this game more than anything.
The negative reviews talk about how long it takes to accumulate enough gold and such, but I don’t think they realize this is also a game of patience! If you are looking for a game with instant reward, it might not be for you. But the payoff when you get the items you want is the best!
The playtime is perfect if you’re looking for a game where you gradually level up over time. It’s the perfect amount of playing a little bit everyday, like when you’re on a bus and looking for something to pass the time.
You can also trade items with people, which is my favorite part. The game has a built-in translation feature, so no matter what language you speak others can understand you!
The people that you talk to in this game are also some of the nicest people ever. For example, there was a Christmas event where it cost less gold to send people gifts, and everyone was sending each other items from their wishlist with no expectation of getting anything in return!
As dramatic as it sounds. I believe this game embodies everything good about being a human being. We’re all just people wanting to get cute little things for our cute little selves and our cute little pets. And we get to see other people’s cute little set ups!
It’s truly a feel-good game and I can’t recommend it enough.

Very Different and Very Cute! (Just one concern and one question...)

I’ve been playing for a few days upon writing this review. Livly Island is a very cute game and the concept is so original! I’ve honestly never seen anything like this. I really love it and am shocked that it seems so underrated in the English-Speaking community because more people need to try it.

There’s just one thing I’d like to mention though, but it’s really not a huge problem. I think it’s worth asking since the developers seem to answer reviews.
I really like the clothing advertised in the Christmas Eve themed pack, but none of the items are listed as available. That goes for all of the packs, even the newer ones...
What I’m trying to ask is, how do I get more clothing items for Homs through the Gacha? In fact, is that even possible, and if not then how can I get them?

One more think I’d like to add, you don’t get different skin tones at first. You’re stuck with the same one. I had a friend of African descent that I mentioned the game to and they tried it, but said they deleted it because it felt racist in that way. I’m sure that was not intentional, but a variety of different skin tones should be a choice from the beginning. You shouldn’t have to have only but a mere chance in the Gacha to change your skin tone and represent yourself.

Developer Response ,

Hi there, Thank you for the review and for expressing your concern with us.

You can change your hom's skin tone by selecting from the menu /item>Hom>Makeup>Face. There is a skin tone selector above the 'I'm done!' button. This is available from the start of the game during the hom customization selection of the tutorial. At this point in time, skin tone is not included as a gacha item - all skin tones are available from the start.

Regarding gathering new items for your hom, by using GP or Leaf Tickets you can pull the in-app gacha at the New Mahara Shop, accessible by selecting /shop > Mahara Shop. Most gachas are divided into an 'Island' section and a 'Hom' section, select the tab you want to pull and then select 'Enter Gacha'. Once you have pulled the gacha, the items you receive will be available in /item under Hom or Island respectively.

Hope this helps.

It’s adorable!

This game is so adorable! It’s very relaxing, and has the friendliest players.

What it is: Livly island is a gacha dress up game. But, unlike most gachas you can trade your duplicate items with other players. Or just send them as gifts! It also includes small pets called livlies. Each Livly species has their own behaviors and appearances. You make potions to transform your livlies to other species with fruit, either from your own tree or from a friends tree! Livlies are very cute and fun to watch, when I can’t sleep I turn on the app and watch my kemaris roll around and that always helps!

I only have a few suggestions that would make this already amazing game, even better.

1. It is very hard to trade fruit since you cannot see what fruit other players have. It would be better if we could view those like dupes.

2. It would be good if we could edit our own post. Sometimes I post something, then find afterwards I made a spelling error! It would be great if we could go back and fix those.

3. This is less important but I would like to see more small kemari sized livlies. Perhaps a tiny sheep livly? A moth/sheep hybrid would be cute. I like small livlies since they take up less space so I can see more of the island. Also they are cute.
