This is so weird. I downloaded this game because it reminded me a lot of Color Island by Athena Studios. And playing it it’s Eerily similar. Down the the island names and everything. Did you have similar artists design these? Either way it’s not a bad game. I think I still prefer the original. But I’m gonna start using this one because I’ve mostly finished the other name.

***Edit - I had to change my review from 2 stars to 1 star. The ads have now become completely inappropriate, so don’t let your kids play or they will be bombarded with a picture of what appears to be a mannequin or some type of fake person’s ***hole with someone else sticking their finger inside and then go on to talk about erectile dysfunction. The week prior has been ads for bras with several women in only their bras showing them off. The bra commercial was dumb, but the ***hole commercial is so over the top disgusting 🤮!!***Original post- It seems there was some sort of update to this game in the last few hours that forces you to watch ads in the middle of game play. Prior to today, the game was only making me watch ads between levels and that did not bother me. Today I started to play and now I am getting a message while in the middle of a level saying “break time in 2 seconds” as a warning and then forces you to watch the ad. I will say the ads are very short, but I don’t like being interrupted n the middle of game play. Also, it is too expensive to pay for no ads. I’m not sure how much longer I will play this game because of the ads.

This app used to run pretty well on my phone. Occasionally, it would lag a bit or freeze up for a few moments when about to load an ad, but it was fine and I enjoyed coloring in the app enough to put up with some very minor annoyance. Now? Nearly all the ads freeze and won’t return to the app. The app lags every few pixels and stops letting me color, which means I can’t earn the event tokens to color event stickers! It’s incredibly frustrating to see an event and want to color all the cute items but I can’t because I can’t color enough pixels during the week it’s open to earn even 3 tokens for the first sticker! Please, figure out what’s wrong with the ad service provider or figure out a way to make the app more efficient or something, because this issue is getting ridiculous. I’ve had to turn to other apps that aren’t as enjoyable for me (they don’t let you color just puzzle piece together, or you do color but it doesn’t do a replay showing how you colored it in).

This game is one of two things, it’s either - 1. An unauthorized, one-to-one plagiarized game that ripped the file from Athena Studios and named it something else to get money, OR -2. The developer completely abandoned the original version COLORLAND, the one I completed and spent almost a year waiting for them to update, and created a new game development company name and reposted it as a different game to make money outside Athena. Honestly this is completely ridiculous. If the dev seriously abandoned their game and just ripped the file to repost it as something new, that’s a huge slap in the face to the people who actually played the original. I really do love COLORLAND and thought it was extremely unique and I love the pixel art style, but now it’s completely obvious that game was abandoned to put all their time and players money into this game, which again, is an exact copy of COLORLAND.. So if you played the original and want to play more, you’ll have to start over in this one to get more content. Extremely weird situation and really screwed the original players…
