I have loved playing this game for well over a year. I have had lots of issues and shenanigans. At level 638, I was booted off....and I started over at level 1. I have erased much of this review now that I got my original game back, with the help of the Wooga staff. I have been playing now(after getting back original account) for several months. So...if you enjoy beautiful graphics, well developed characters, a good story line...this is your game. If you enjoy making 15 attempts to actually get on this game, not being able to collect the rewards you earned without going through ridiculous clueless hints...this is your game. If you can't wait to have your progress stalled for days at a time, causing your teammates to suffer in challenges you are not able to be involved in....and if your life wouldn't be complete without those creative answers from the helpful staff to solve your problem by sneaking in more roadblocks, this is your game. If you don't spend actual money on a "free game" be prepared to suffer the consequences of your decisions..this is your game. Oh and at least once a month, be prepared for a gluttony of shenanigans...stock holder meetings. And lastly...please Wooga, no need for your "sorry you are having issues" memo...you made them . Not let's see if this gets posted and who can actually see it.

I have been playing this game for a while and I love playing. I’ve shared with friends and family how fun this game is. I like that there is a story with the hidden object scenes. Recently I started listening to the podcast as well and it’s a good addition to the game. There are options to buy diamonds, decorations, etc in the game however the developers have created it so that purchase isn’t a must which is nice. I do opt to watch the ads so that I don’t use as much energy per game play. The decorations are nice. At first I didn’t understand the benefits from having the decorations however after playing for a little while I slowly began to understand. It has become just as much fun to decorate the island as it is to play the scenes. The one thing that is bothersome a little is the time it takes to watch the ads and for the ads to load. It takes 30 seconds for some ads to just load and that doesn’t include the watch time for the ads. Sometimes the ads won’t load it will just sit and spin. I have also encountered a few times that the ads did not load and it went on for me to start playing the scene once I start the playing then the ad will pop up kicking me out of playing the scene. This causes a lose of energy which is frustrating. The only other concern I have is the occasional foul language in the story. I don’t like those types of words and feel that hey are not needed because it takes away from the quality of the game. Other than that a great game.

I love this game. It has a good plot/storyline, great seek n find levels. You can earn a lot of the diamonds on your own just by playing and most all decorations and things you “build” are affordable without having to spend your money on them,,,Except the special-limited time decorations and crazy priced to me!! They are usually between $10-$20 for a decoration in a game, I’m sorry that’s just too much, then to buy them with the coins(game money) they were like $100,000 and it takes probably 50 games just to get $20,000. However I did see this set for Halloween is a lot more reasonable $36,000 and us normal folk,lol, can now get them too.. I Don’t Like that it’s been glitching and messing us bad for the past week. Ads won’t load,so you can’t get your new cases, energy discount, upgrade buildings, almost everything needs to play ads at some point, but often if you play it like and as much as I do, if you can’t load the ads your done you can’t get past those unless u wait hours or till the app works right and loads an ad, it will just exit out of the app at random times. There’s time it won’t even load up the game right before it exits the app. It just started doing this. I can play for an hour, or a day and it will be ok, next day I’m lucky if I can play any find & seek levels. Other than that, Love this game, that’s only reason I didn’t give it 5stars

I do enjoy this game. And that’s no exaggeration. There are ads, but that’s managed better in this game than many others. You have control over when you choose to see these ads, so they don’t interrupt your momentum. Although, you’ll find it difficult to make progress without watching some ads, or paying money.I have 2 sources of annoyance, however. The first is the amount of energy needed to finish an episode. With each successive ‘search’, the amount of energy required to finish an episode increases, such that when you’re getting close, it’s frustrating. It tells you that you’re 95% complete, you get a “perfect” score on what you think is your last search, and nope, you only gained another 3-4%. So you still have to spend another energy chunk just to get that last, measly 1-2%. The second is that the items you have to search for are not all present in the picture from the beginning. Plus, they add more periodically. AND, some of the things are truly obscure, such that even a person with a large vocabulary, won’t have any idea what some things are. Which makes it hard to find them. Of course, they provide a help button, but they seriously dock your points for using it. And heaven help you if you are far-sighted. Some things are so well hidden, that even with help, it’s a challenge. I have found myself saying, fairly often, “that’s a ______?!?!”
