This game is absolutely amazing and you should definitely download it and play it, but there is an issue where the game softlocks before the game even starts when it says “Checking version” making me unable to play the game. The current version of the game is version 2.21. Other than that this is a very fun game and probably the best Kariosoft game to recommend to a person who hasn’t played a Kariosoft game before. The premise is easy to understand and learn compared to other games with some advanced features in it so it’s not as simple as it seems. -Apple Quest

I beat it years ago and back then on a different phone account paid a little money just out of appreciation for the developers of the game. Just recently I decided to go back and play it through again. This was the first Kairosoft game I ever played and so far I think it’s still my favorite. It’s simpler and less flashy looking then some but it side steps what a lot of free to play games do by IMO having what grind there is be reasonable and decent to play out. You can choose to pay for certain things like getting rid of ads, but it’s also not all that necessary because the ad only plays when ever you first start up the game again so it’s not constantly interrupting and pestering you, and the only other area is where there is one spot where there is a tiny banner with ads often for Kairosoft games and stuff but it’s fairly easy to ignore.After playing this I got disappointed by how in contrast Kingdom Story does a lot of the things that other FTP games do that annoy me with the grinding, gems, annoying pop ups, and pressure to spend real money, but Beastie Bay remains a fun monster collector, rpg/town builder/rollercoaster tycoon-like and a good user friendly experience!

The last time I played this game was a few years ago, and it was virtually perfect, but now a bunch of changes have been made that just make the game bad. The music used to be simple but enjoyable; the current soundtrack quality has decreased greatly in comparison and feels like it just adds a bunch of unnecessary noise. I have also noticed many spacing errors in the text where there used to be none at all. Furthermore, choosing to quit the game used to send you back to the title screen, which was helpful when you wanted to undo a mistake, but now it boots you out of the app altogether forcing you to wait for it to load up all over again. All in all, the current version of the game feels like the developers tried to fix something that wasn’t broken and ended up breaking several things as a result. It’s a real shame. This app used to be one of my favorites, but now I have to let it go. I’ve given the game two stars because as far as I know none of the actual game mechanics have been changed or broken.

Happy day! Plays offline all I wanted! Will be upgrading to the 5$ iAP when I can afford it! Tank you very much! Also please do the same with Dream house days, bon bon cakery & kingdom tales! I played the older version that ran offline for a long time, this game is addicting as the rest, going out finding monsters, battling monsters, clearing areas, finding new areas to sail to & discovering & opening them fully, on top of making a decent tourist spot with your island to make money, it's a juggle but a very fun one at that. It's slow at first but keep at it it gets better & honestly not pushy on iAP at all.
