Game features
Adventure Bay: Paradise Farm is a match-3 puzzle game with farming and crafting elements. Players will be able to help Lydia’s town fix their buildings and product ingredients, and gather resources to prepare valuable materials that will allow them on adventures into mysterious locations. The game also allows players to build their own farm where they can raise animals for food, harvest crops for feedstock, or get fish from the waterway!
Other prominent features of the game include trading and delivering orders to receive fantastic rewards, expanding your village, traveling with Lydia and Henry on exotic islands (to solve mysteries), discovering ancient ruins (with them), and finding mythic treasures by completing quests.
pros:
- -Fun and addictive gameplay with various items to collect, craft, and trade.
- -Build your farm, plant crops, make delicious meals and sell them to earn money.
- -Play with your friends in the same room or on different continents.
- -Explore the map and solve mysteries on each island you visit.
- cons:
- -The game is free to download, but you have to pay for some features (such as customizing your character) that are unnecessary but can be fun for some players.
- -The game does take time to load (an average of 3 minutes).
cons:
- -The game is not optimized for the iPad. The touch screen is not as responsive as the iPad’s, and there are some issues with it (e.g., when you tap on a building, it doesn’t show up on your screen).
- -The game does not have an autosave feature or the ability to save your progress mid-game unless you manually save at a certain point. For example, if you are playing in “coop” mode, if one of you leaves, then leaves again, and another player joins in, all of your progress will be lost, and you will have to start from scratch.
- -The game has no achievements or rewards for playing through the levels (unless you pay for them).

Conclusion:
“The Lost Island” is a fun game, but if you are looking for an iPad version, you might be disappointed. It is not the same game as the PC or Android versions. The designer claims that he did not want to make the game too complicated and wanted it to be easy enough for people to play without any instructions. However, iOS users still need instructions on using the touch controls and advanced features such as “coop” mode (which allows two players on one device). These functions may be more important for some players than playing with friends in the same room or on different continents.
