Id give it a 4.5 out of 5 honestly cus it's not perfect, BUT ITS REALLY GOOD. The beautiful and simplistic designs of everything really makes me feel calm. Also the music fits the game. It's so calming and cozy. Playing it on a rainy day is IDEAL. the only problem I have is that the instructions are not clear enough and when I first downloaded it I found myself very confused at what to do. Also they should notify when you need to collect rewards cus I was very confused when trying to find metal.

This is such a beautifully drawn game and has so much potential, but it's impossible to play without constantly turning to ads for doing anything at all. There is no great option to pay either, as the transactions are constant. Disappointed because this could become such a great game.

An OK game. Concept is good but gameplay is limited & can get cringy at times. Talks about taking care of the environment which is good but then limits the player to 3 opportunities to recycle objects a day unless you watch ads. Also the environment reverts rather quickly so it's hard to get ahead unless you play every day.

Extremely confusing. Wants you to recycle plastic? Can't find plastic. Blow a conch horn? Can't find a conch horn. It's really weird. I can't tell if it's trying to be abstract or if it's some cultural disconnect with the developers but I have no idea what the goal is. And it's a verrry slow grind. Even with cheating I got bored.

If you enjoy watching ads nonstop just to find one tiny animal that you probably already have then this game will be perfect for you!!! Takes wayyyyy too long and the reward is not even close to worth it. I've tried to get into this game many different times because I loveeeee the concept, but the game mechanics aren't where they need to be to make this game amazing.

It would be a fun game if you learn it but the sad part is it has an incomplete set of " how to play". Some of the missions cannot be completed because the game isn't updated. Its Mostly just watching ads, even the missions are just watch ads. I watched ads more than I payed the game. (P.S where when and what floating market.)

When I open the app, it just goes onto a black screen and plays music that would usually be playing as the game goes on. I'm not sure if this is just a technical issue to do with my phone but 1 other review said the same thing happened with them... šŸ˜•

Great game..also some what educational. I have been playing for some time and I noticed one problem. Some times when l find a creature that has already been found and It doesn't apearšŸ˜ . I even found a yeti 2 times but still l only have one. that is not the only time it happend, even some foxes, flamingos, seaguls and some other animals. Still a great game.would have given it ten stars if there wasn't a problem.šŸ™‚

Loved it! Until I bought the resort and now I can't get rid of it! I didnt have enough gems when it first came to let me buy the land back and now the price keeps increasing. I dont have enough diamonds to buy it back and I'll never be able to get enough unless I pay money for them. Its infuriating and frustrating. Uninstalling

The graphic is really relaxing, I love the color of the game, all details are very simple but eye-catching. But the development team should add some more things like habitats tutorial, I'm a little bit confusing about how to create new environments,in addition the only way to increase your gems is by paying real money so it's hard to play the game enjoyably, and the last thing... It said I have 2 creatures in my habitat but I just can only see 1 of them. I'm looking forward to your maintenance.
