I love this game! I don’t know about others, but my game will simply say “checking for updates” indefinitely if I do not have wi-fi, so I have to argue thatwi-fi is absolutely required. I have been feeling a little salty about the fact that I can no longer choose the look for what I place in my garden. Unless you buy paintbrushes. Pretty much all game s let you choose between three options. Panthia does as well, if you pay for it. You can earn paintbrushes, theoretically, but they are very few and very far between. I think i’vehad the opportunity to win two or three. So it is not as fun to place things in my garden because I have no control as to the look of them. As someone else noted, money is not required but it is impossible to complete all the tasks in the side quests or prize islands to get the prizes. You would have to spend a good deal of money to get enough energy and crystals to complete these in the scant three days provided. I know it seems like all I did was complain, but this game is so good that the bad things really stick out like a sore thumb. The graphics are beautiful, the game play is easy and relaxing, and the side quests and prize islands add variety (even if you can't finish them). I come on and play a couple of times a day, it only takes 5 minutes or less before I am out of energy and can do no more, but I enjoy it nonetheless.

Edited-I have played this game for a while now. The floating balloons are aggravating. They float over the island blocking structures the player is trying to build. The player has to keep moving the balloons out of the way. More than once I have accidentally spent gems while trying to move the balloon. This is probably on purpose to get a player to buy more gems. Next, even though a wonder has been created, a player keeps receiving items to build the Wonder. This is a waste of energy. Then a player has bits and pieces sitting around taking up space. So a player has to merge the pieces to make more room for other pieces that go with creating another wonder. We should be able to “sell” these odd pieces back to the game. Like the coins, the more pieces merged the higher the value. Receiving energy for the pieces would be great, because the player had to spend energy to receive these worthless odds and ends. To date, I have not spent a dime. If I have objects that take 20 minutes to build, I use all my energy and build the objects prior to leaving the game to do something else. Well I am out of resources to continue building wonders. I have several items that required resources to build and all I have is 4 stick ponies (not what they are called, but what they look like). So unless I want to spend money, which I don’t have to spend, I am done. So when the advertising says play free that is up to a point. Then to continue you must spend $$$$.

Had this downloaded on my phone but wanted it on my iPad as well, to have a bigger screen! It’s super fun, the only thing is that you need to be super precise when grabbing a piece to move and/or the surrounding area when you want to pan around the island. I’ve wasted boosters and accidentally merged things I didn’t want to merge yet because I didn’t specifically swipe what I wanted in the exact place (I tried to close the game once, and I wasted an axe! All I did was swipe up and it moved the axe from my chest and used it somewhere). So the sensitivity of the game or graphics might need some improvement? But other than that, I love it. I do believe they updated it with some great changes, the energy chests no longer always need shovels to open (there are still some that only can open with shovels), and let you watch an ad instead which I LOVE. I rarely spend real money on games (you can only really get a shovel by paying real money. I’ve only ever gotten like 2 or 3 so far and I’ve been playing for months) so to be able to get more energy that way makes the game so much more fun. Because I used to run out of energy within like, 10 minutes and I would close the game after that to wait for it to recharge but now I can play for a while before I need to wait. My favorite part of the game is actually the mini game thing with the pink energies, I think it’s because the discoveries usually take less levels plus you progress through those a little faster, it’s kind of like a maze, I guess? But they are only available once in a while but I wish they happened more often!! Anyway, it’s super fun - definitely recommend!
