Reminiscent of Animal Crossing

This game is GREAT! I was looking for something similar to Animal Crossing, and I was pleasantly surprised at both the similarities and differences in Castaway Paradise. Ive been playing for about two weeks now and overall, I enjoy it! It is very unique and offers a much different gaming experience from Animal Crossing!

My pluses:
I love the many different options for decorating your home. Being able to hang things on the walls, windows, and ceilings are cool. The fact that the game is constantly updating and developing is definitely a plus as well. The overall aesthetic design of the game is very fun and appealing. I like that there are always quests from the villagers...theres always something to do.

My minuses: The controls are a little awkward at times. Its pretty tiring to use one finger for everything from moving the character to action commands. The constant pop ups requesting things to be posted on Facebook is very annoying. There should be a way to turn that off (maybe I just havent found it yet?).

My suggestions: Adding a day/night cycle to the game would be awesome. Expanding the map or perhaps incorporating other islands to travel to would be nice. Maybe having villagers that come and go would be nice as well. Having some sort of control pad on one side of the screen to avoid using one finger constantly would definitely be beneficial. Being able to play with friends would be a nice addition later on down the line as well. Incorporating island-wide events like fishing and bug tournaments or other festivals would be fun. Finally, it should be more difficult to advance in the game. As it is now, you can just buy your way through everything if youre willing to spend the money on it. In my opinion, that takes away from the overall gaming time and difficulty level of the game! I have no suggestions to offer there as I know the developers need to make their money somehow, but I would definitely like to see some change in that area!

Overall, this is game is definitely headed in the right direction. Im so glad I stumbled across it! I will surely keep playing and looking forward to future updates! Thank you for taking the time to read this!
