2024-12-12 | Rami Abdul-Halim | Hi. It seems that last update broke pixel island. I click on it but it doesn't work. Not sure why. Thanks. | |
2024-09-04 | Mikayla | I loved this game but all my data disappeared and I have to start over now... I tried contacting the team but no answer so I think is pointless playing a game if all the data is going to disappear. | |
2024-07-07 | Adam Augier | I used to play this a LOT when I was younger, it's sad to see it's only gotten worse with time. The devs update the game to break it (it literally wouldn't load and would freeze when pressing play) and they add more ways to get money from you without fixing all the awful issues on newer devices. I'd say it was worth it but only 10+ years ago when it was actually good. | |
2024-04-19 | InterKOT | A lot of mobile games have gone down the drain with ads. This game is the complete opposite. Only time you watch ads is for upgrades, totally voluntary. Good pacing. Perfect difficult. Lots of content. I wouldn't mind another katana for coins but the game is really nicely made as of right now! | |
2024-03-12 | Michael Durst | The core gameplay loop is fun. The game runs smoothly, fast loading times. But even paying a couple bucks won't bring you very far. After an hour, you won't make progress anymore. If you don't pay regularly, the grind is I N S A N E. I'd be willing to pay 5β¬ for a simple game like this, but the monetarization model is complete bollocks. | |
2024-01-02 | Andalib Maani | Update after update, the game becomes increasingly tarnished. Here are the three main problems: 1. Predatory scaling of game progress. It isn't worth it to go deeper. It's near impossible to earn good money as a free player, and ads are needed to get more. 2. Poor game optimization for newer devices 3. Removal of treasure swiping. Before, once you destroy a treasure inside a chest, you could swipe the same treasure for 2 seconds or so to essentially duplicate per swipe the treasure reward. | |
2023-09-19 | Rowan O'Hara | Recently the game has been freezing more and more often, quite annoying when I've reached the bottom, caught a chest, caught a whole lot of high-value fish, and I lose the whole catch because the game froze and I had to close it. Still love playing but it definitely needs some bug fixes. Edit: this is now happening every time I open the app, making it next to unplayable. | |
2023-02-11 | Matt Ravenhorst | I would of give this 5 stars. It's such an amazing childhood game for a lot of us but there's one massive problem. Everytime I change phones and redownload the game I have to restart the game. This is a massive grinding game and you should add a way for players to log into Facebook or something like that like pokemon go. Absolutely love this game, just hate restarting and I'm going to keep this game off my phone until there's a log in update. I really really hope you consider this.π€π | |
2023-01-14 | Anita | Fun game. But, the day after I bought gold, the game became unplayable. When I open the app now, the buttons on the first screen don't work. I've tried everything but reinstalling... I've seen other reviews where they've reinstalled and lost all their progress anyway... including purchases. Multiplayer is non-existent... there's no one playing the game anymore, and I can see why. Very unfortunate as I downloaded this for nostalgia, now getting a refund and deleting. | |
2023-01-08 | Diana Vallin | I have had this game when it first came out. It was fun and thrilling. I have decided to download it again, you know for the nostalgia, but one of the biggest problems that I had included the sliding speed of the hook. It either goes all the way to the left or right. I have tried going to the settings but its not the same. It doesnt glide anymore. Not because of an app malfunction I simply couldn't get it back to the default speed. Apart from that it was fun while it lasted. How to change back? |
