Lost Island: Blast Adventure 4+

Just the right amount of challenge

Puzzles are easy enough to get through, but they’re not so easy that i find myself gettin bored
And seeing the island get cleaned up is nice
My only complaint is when you have obstacles on the board that block rainbow pearls. I just attempted to do a puzzle and got enough explosions for a rainbow pearl, but it spawned between three coral pieces and couldn’t use it. What’s the point of a mechanic if you can’t use it? Other pop block games like this allow you to place their own version of the rainbow pearl anywhere on the board, but your rainbow pearls spawn randomly. This isn’t the first time I’ve been unable to use a pearl and lost all 7 lives in the span of a few minutes. Just infuriating sometimes.

EDIT: Ya know what. Even though I only gave four stars and my review was just a complaint on something annoying that only really happens every 50 levels or so (now that I’m up in the 600s) the developer reached out to me. I’ve left reviews for other games that have had real major problems (like buying something from their game stores and then the game taking away what I bought so I’m essentially being robbed) and gotten no replies. But these developers still reached out even though my complaint was superficial, so I’m changing my review to five stars because THATS how you handle reviews.

A really special kind of game

I don’t really write reviews much but after playing this one consecutively for months I had to give in and do it. 1. I Love the decorative element where you can choose different styles and watch the island get fixed up. After working my brain solving Candy Crush type of puzzles over and over this is cool. 2. The Mystical and mysterious Storyline is BOMB. Also The fact that you have a female lead character who does the dirty work of chopping down trees as well as use her brains to solve Museum Archeology mysteries is a huge plus! It had my little sister pretending to make muscles and “be strong” without making it a big deal or feel political. The animation is dope and the Hawaii chill music is relaxing and stays stuck in my head. Overall good game, puzzles keep getting more challenging(adding water to make you have to solve faster KillS. My. Nerves.😂 but the frequent giveaways make it easy to control whether you feel like solving it the tough way or make it easier with boosters. The tournaments keep you busy and and graphics even in the puzzle mini games make it entertaining like slot machines to watch.

Keep it up! I’d love to see whatever else you guys make next

Thanks for your detailed feedback! We appreciate it.

Fun while it lasted

Loved the game at first. The storyline is great, the different adventures so fun and it does grow harder over time - I enjoyed the more complex puzzles and strategies I need to get through the Fortune Island. Then came Puzzle Gardens, and the level after making it to gold (it doesn’t seem to have a title). The set up is too challenging so that you’re more hoping for the luck of the right booster to fall in your lap and you’re working in smaller and smaller grids that are impossible to maneuver without a serendipitous block. I spent a fair amount of money, more than $500, but it’s just not fun anymore, to go through the same puzzle over and over trying to luck out with no real control over the game. Unless there’s a challenge where you get extra hours (which are often) you blow through your seven hearts, and even with the 6 + hours you can get with the smoothie challenge, who wants to play the same puzzle over and over for 10/15 mins hoping for the right line up of cubes in an 8x8 space. I did love the game, but they need to add a few more moves to make it actually possible to beat the puzzle in less attempts. Agree with other reviewers that say it’s incredibly slow paced, the needing multiple turns to create four hedges is unusual, but I wouldn’t mind if there was actually a chance if doing so without using ten + lives. I recommend through Squid Cove and then say goodbye to what was a fun diversion.
