Less cute Animal Crossing
[h1]Описание:[/h1]
Релакс песочница с игрой с соцсетей, но уже без доната. Только на инглише... Бегаем по островам и выполняем задания местных аборигенов, ну или делаем что хочется - выращиваем растения, ловим рыбку, строим и обустраиваем дом... Графически игра страшная, по геймплею скучно ужасно и одно и тоже делать задалбывает. Мне не понравилось.

Game is buggy, the last update was years ago with any sort of mod response. It is essentially abandonware. The DLCs (albeit free) do not work. Controller and/or keyboard controls are a mess (note on the controller 'supported' version you will get stuck in your house forever). If you can get this game free, it can be fun, but for any amount of money, I'd HIGHLY recommend not buying this game!
Love the game!
💋
So you wanna play Animal Crossing without console? Here the funnier version of it!
It still has online version where you could claim daily reward and other features if you're not patient enough tho
Animal Crossing for poor
mom i wanna play animal crossing
we have animal crossing at home
animal crossing at home:
This game feels like it doesn't know WHAT it wants to be. It flip-flops from wanting to be like Animal Crossing to wanting to be like Harvest Moon.
Lot of nostalgic value for me though. Take my review with a grain of salt, I'm biased. I played the original mobile release.
Trash with a capital T...
yaşam simülasyonu eğlenceli ve tatlı grafikleri var can sıkıntısında akar gider
Where do I even begin.
You know those mobile games that make you either wait forever for things to complete/being able to do actions? This basically plays exactly like those. And all you do in it is to basically do a stupid amount of fetch quests with some planting and fish/bug catching in between. It is extremely repetitive and honestly really not enjoyable to play. It also loves to give you quests you just can not complete because the items you need just haven't spawned anywhere on the island.
The store page claims [quote]If you like Animal Crossing, Among Us, or Harvest Moon, you will love this game![/quote] but I highly disagree and I love farming games. The Among Us part doesn't even make any sense because the game plays nothing like it.
To add to the problems the controls are beyond awful (at least on keyboard and mouse). You actually have to try to make them this terrible. It is also quite buggy and none of the DLCs for it work anymore (at least they are free I guess...).
It is legitimately baffling to me how this game has 71% positive reviews. It is very much not good at all.
Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-3).
I love a cozy game, especially one with a quirky art style and a silly vibe reminiscent of Animal Crossing, but this was just not good. The controls were super jank, even with the free patch for controller support; the characters felt bland and forgettable; the customization on offer for your character was lacking; but worst of all, it was very obviously a free-to-play mobile game that got badly ported to PC. I don't hate mobile games either, they can be well done, just look at Hello Kitty Island Adventure, or the mobile versions of Stardew and MTaP, this just clearly wasn't. And in this day and age, where actually good cozy games are coming out monthly, there's no reason to waste your time here.
Purchased it on sale for under three bucks. The most action I got out of it was trying to widen the screen. I get stuck at the logo and nothing in the community shows a fix. Not even worth it on sale, returned it within 7 minutes of fighting with it.
Es como Animal Crossing, solo que nunca he jugado un Animal Crossing, y espero que no se parezca a este, porque vaya ****** de juego.
Lo más divertido que ocurre es limpiar telarañas.
Is very much like animal crossing including the wait times. The DLCs are completely free, plus I got the game at a fair price before. It can be enjoyable. The music is a bit repetitive so I recommend turning it off after awhile.
My only complaint would be the cursor disappearing when you use WASD to move. makes the game feel clunky and awkward trying to bug catch.
Pretty sure this was made as a mobile game. Aimed to copy Animal Crossing but captured none of its charm. Soulless.
Game not bad itself, bug very buggy, and developers no longer support it. Many people with controllers cannot quit their house(include me) even after downloaded the "fixing" dlc. It's a big issue, since you cannot continue game at that stage. You may think that's it, but sadly it's not. I have also issue, and it seems I am not the only one, who cannot finish quest with Amelia, and that blocks one slot for quest. Game supposedly disappeared from Play Store, so we can only guess that developers have no intention to take care of the game anymore. Don't buy it, unless you want to experience lack of support.
More addicting than it looks lol

This game is just like among us apparently according to the devs
Le jeu est sympa, enfantin mais sympa.
Je déplore une traduction minime de chez minime en Français. Parfois un mots dans tout le texte.
Passez-moi le fichiers les concepteurs :)
I can't get any of the DLCs to work, there's no way to quit the game if you're using a controller, you have to force quit out of it. There's no way to adjust the volume of the sound/music. The game gives you quests that can't be finished yet there is no way to quit out of a quest so it just sits there taking up space in your list.
J'y ai joué pour combler l'attente entre animal crossing new leaf et acnh. Ce n'est pas un jeu parfait, mais assez agréable à jouer et avec une jolie DA!
Castaway Paradise, in version 3.0, shows a stride,
Yet, it can't touch Animal Crossing's pride.
Slow and dull, lacking the charm,
Falls far short, no allure, no warm.
cheap ripoff of animal crossing. surprised Nintendo allows it on the switch considering.
.
Entretenido lo suelo jugar cuando no tenia internet recomendado si quieres relajarte y decorar la isla xd
pretty tasteless.
Good game if you like Stardew Valley and animal crossing. lots of free DLC if you can get it to work and the controller update is a good add on
Very repetitive and grindy feels a lot like a mobile game
This is a cute animal crossing style game. Don't listen to the thing about Harvest Moon or Among Us since it's really not that similar to either. The UI isn't the best and the timers are the main giveaway for it being a mobile port, but the NPCS are cute and seem decently fleshed out.
Animal Crossing-like game
I love it!
7/10
Me gustaba mucho jugarlo cuando estaba disponible para celular y lo disfruto aun mas en Steam. Si tienen control de xbox se los recomiendo bastante. Mejoran bastante los graficos y te dan mas monedas por cada frutas que venas. Los graficos son muy adorables, hay miles de cosas que puedes comprar como flores, frutas (que si las entierras crecen arboles), muebles, cosas tematicas de todo tipo, etc para decorar la isla y casa como tu quieras asi como atuendos que se pueden combinar de diferentes maneras. En este juego estan las cuatro estaciones (del horario del emisferio Norte) pero no hay rotacion de dia o noche.
Se que no es el mejor juego de "simulador de vida diaria en el campo", que no tiene mas de 1000 ncps, que las misiones solo llegan como a los 120 puntos cuando se supone que el maximo es de 220. No puedes como en AC editar la cara o piel de tu personaje o incluso drear tu propia ropa y texturas.
Pero como dije, aun asi es disfrutable para pasar un rato o varias horas. Solo que mis unicos problemas son que: No puedo interactuar con Ramona y Polly que son mis ncps favoritas, y lo mas importante. El DLC de Steven es injugable haciendo que los logros de entrar a todas las casas y tener todos los personajes no se puedan conseguir. Un pena que no hayan arreglado ese problema en todos estos años. Saludos.
Stays stuck on the dev logo forever, no matter what you do. Not sure if there's even a game after that logo. Thankfully I think I spent like a couple dollars on this on a discount. Stay far away.
I do enjoy the concept of the game but it is annoying to play on pc. The controllers literaly just stop working after you reach level 11 and playing with a mouse and keyboard just feels unconfortable since it uses the same interface for mobiles. The game needs better adaptation to pc
Game is abandoned and the DLC can no longer be downloaded and used in the game as the servers they were on no longer exist
its kind of glitchy, but its a really fun game, its abit like animal crossing: new horizon.
This game isn't awful, and I perhaps would recommend it on consoles, but the game as it is on Steam and playing it with a mouse and keyboard, I just can't recommend it. Almost right from the get-go, I found the controls infuriating - particularly, when I would be watering or using tools in general and I already pressed buttons on the keyboard to move in one direction before the action had finished, the character model would turn 180 and walk in the complete opposite direction to where I wanted. I had to wait every single time for the character to come to a complete halt before I could control the character normally again.
Achievement Hunting
The achievements are broken - specifically a couple of them - due to one of the DLCs being broken. Luckily there is a guide to help you complete those achievements (among others) which made it possible, but I would have written about this game negatively a lot more strongly if that wouldn't have been the case.
I would like to recommend this game, and it was fun at first, but sadly that joy quickly dissipated.
this game is a unoriginal idea stolen strictly from animal crossing.
lets talk about the devs and this game/ features.
lets first talk about the devs, garbage developers who only care about money and getting more of it.
lets now talk about the game/ features.
what this game offers is a black screen on majority of pc builds that offers 0 solutions or fixes. i've tried many things to get past that black screen. "this is issue that came after the switch release and the controller support which both are jacked up. "
lets talk about the actual game since i do have over 5 hours played before the black screen issue.
this game; talk to villagers, do dumb missions, catch bugs, fish, farm, upgrade/progress.
Animal crossing; Talk to villagers, do a large variety of dumb missions, catch a bunch of bugs with some being quite difficult, catch a bunch of fish and many of them being (difficult), farm... wow you can farm on ac?? always have, doing flowers was always a farming aspect in ac, crafting wow this game came out before new horizons on switch meaning they couldn't steal the diving/ swimming or crafting from ac. sucks to be a trash developer like "stolen ideas" i meant couch not ideas. oooh yeah crafting is in ac. oooh upgrading is another thing in both games, ac is way superior and all around better. lets now do the progression part since it's the last thing this game "stolen paradise" has to offer. progression is based upon stupid quests that are mostly bugged making progression impossible, in fact i quit the game in the first place because there was a bug where i couldn't even progress AT ALL.
conclusion;
imagine if you couldn't even get past the tent on animal crossing new horizons, now because you cant progress past that tent you can't unlock anything new post of that, or even progress upon the tent. that is what castaway paradise developed by Stolen ideas. i meant no originality, i meant not a singular aspect of this game is original. i meant stolen ideals, i meant stolen couch is as developer brings us.
and to sum it all up.....
i've owned this game since release date, the updates on literally countable on 1 singular finger, patches/ bug fixes are literally countable with the use of NOTHING. there has been 0 patches or bug fixes, just a update that broke the game for 90% of pc users, the 3.0 controller support.
Where is Steve ????? That seems to be a problem please fix other then that its fun !
I bought this game a long time ago and played it a lot. But, I uninstalled it when it got boring. Now, years later, I reinstalled it and it won't even start. Don't waste your money. I'm sure you can find quality games for your money. This ain't one of them.
This game is quite similar to some other stuff.
Main comparison is probably Animal Crossing.
Also a little bit of Stardew Valley, It feels neat.
However: In comparison to the similar games:
This is clearly lower budget and lower quality.
At times it felt like a boring chore, but it is ok.
I don't recommend buying it for the full price.
Could be fine with some lovely 70% discount.
It seems to be mainly intended for small kids.
And I guess kids could really enjoy this game.
Older generation will get bored quite quickly.
There's a lot of waiting, movements are slow.
Certain things feel clunky, but it ain't terrible.
In fact: I think this deserves a positive review.
Buy it for your kids, or younger siblings folks.
Grandparents could enjoy it too, I'm not sure.
But yeah, It's a neat little ripoff, mostly good.
Yorumlara bakıp büyük bir hevesle satın almıştım ama oyunum hiçbir türlü açılmadı.
closest thing we'll get to animal crossing on pc. overall good game I recommend.
buggy and disappointing
中規中矩的休閒經營遊戲，可以四處種種花、釣釣魚、捕昆蟲，很類似任天堂的動物之森~~不過由於其npc的長相實在過於想吐槽，很不想找他們互動......
it is more fun on console tbh but its a good game for playing a game while watchng a tc series
At first, I really enjoyed this game. Even though I have some differences of opinion about the Animal Crossing comparisons, overall, it does fill in that gap for the PC market. It's the type of game you lose yourself in for a few hours, and I appreciated that aspect among others, like unlocking areas of the island, daily login rewards, tracked quests, etc. Things this game should have but doesn't: interactivity with the stores you unlock, more of a general purpose or reason TO unlock things, and a reworked economy system. As is, I've made BANK and finished 98% of the game in under 10 hours; the remaining 2% requires me to log in every day to respawn cobwebs and seashells for achievements. That playtime is almost laughable in comparison to games of the same genre, like Animal Crossing, Stardew Valley, My Time at Portia, etc.
Unfortunately, an endless amount of bugs ruins any charm this game has, and it's been abandoned by the devs who said back in 2019 they'd fix those issues... A free DLC is bugged, and you are unable to meet one of the villagers, locking you out of two achievements. Numerous times, I've encountered bugs while changing my equipment slots, and when I logged in today, I couldn't use one of my items AT ALL. I don't know why or how it's bugged, but the fact that the game has gone on this long without these bugs being addressed is RIDICULOUS.
If you care about achievements and stress-free gameplay, I highly advise against buying this game unless it's on sale like right now, where it's basically one dollar. It'd be a waste of your money otherwise.
we need chinese, we need chinese, we need chinese, we need chinese. 我们需要中文。字多，没中文，先差评。什么时候更新中文什么时候改。本平台，它处自定义包入的本体约7元，目前就这，看以后追评。
I was looking forward to this game at it looks a bit like animal crossing and I used to love that back when i had a nintendo ds (good old times!).
Castaway paradise is more of a mobile game knockoff thing though, and not even a good one. Everything in game takes real time, often multiple hours. Whenever you open the game there is only limited stuff to do and you end up closing the game after not even half an hour. The game is designed to be played again and again over the course of a day, just like a mobile game. Plants, for example are not just planted, watered and then grow. No, you plant, water, wait for a while, then water again, wait, water again, and then eventually they are ready.
The game is also incredibly slow, especially after a while. You start off on a small piece of the island and have to open passages to other places by collecting 9 puzzle pieces for each of them. After 5 hours i have only managed to open one of 6 (?) passages. The newly opened part of the world does not even add much, I only got one new character and 2 houses to repair.
Repairig houses, upgrading your own house, often even fulfilling quests takes a lot of money and it's not easy to earn in huge amounts. The only way to get money is by fishing/ catching bugs, farming or by either working with the bank (i give them 5k, after 24 hours i get 6k back) or playing with the stock market. All of them are not really that profitable and getting 10k+ for repairing a hourse takes forever.
The game just feels unfulfilling and boring, the mobile concept just doesn't work for PC here. I feel a bit cheated and frustrated by the game and can't recommend it.
yup
It's good... I can tell this had some heavy inspiration to Animal Crossing with the fishing (the fish even appear as shadows), the tools, the bug catching and even has animal like villagers. But it's a pretty good time-waster. And the free DLC and no micro-transactions are an added bonus.
I am guessing this is a PC port from a mobile game as it has the "click to move" function. Not sure what the point of that is since the WASD keys work just fine. However I've noticed the mouse always snaps to the middle of the screen whenever I move my character. This makes it really annoying to catch bugs since I am forced to stop move my mouse and click. It's especially bad if you don't have much mouse space. Having the E to Interact control would really help.
Regardless, it's a game you can start playing when you have little to do and the daily challenges and rewards can keep you hooked. I do recommend this to others if it's on sale. I feel $21.50 AUD is too steep for what's essentially a PC port for a mobile game.
I previously posted a good review (below) after 6 hours of play but nearing the 'end' of the game, I have to take it back. I use the term 'end' loosely.
The devs seem to have disappeared, the dlcs don't work, certain achievements are literally unachievable, and worse than all of that... there's no storyline. Like, nothing. Not even a cutscene or conversational acknowledgement of a milestone. Just nothing happens.
This game could be so good. But in it's current state, it's not. Too bad.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good, honest, fun. Hope to see ongoing development of the game.
Very mildly buggy but nothing game breaking. (For instance, one of my 12 garden plots is glitched, but I'm hoping rebooting the game will fix it.)
Its an starter for Animal Crossing and its really fun! I would play it before debating on getting Animal Crossing.
Riddled with bugs that I tried my best to overlook, until they became game-breaking. After I exited the game once and reloaded, I couldn't leave the house whatsoever and my run ended.
100% unplayable in this state. Don't waste your money or time.
Castaway Paradise is similar to Animal Crossing. You play on an island and complete different tasks, expand and explore your land, trade different items and level up.
The issue is that this game is an altered mobile version ported onto the pc. You can see this on the "VIP" system in this game or the very grindy manner, that is more frustrating than fun. In order to get all achievements you need to reach level 34, this will require at least about 30 hours of constant grinding, which is an fairly usual tactic of the mobilegame industry ("pay2progress"), on the pc version the paying was removed because you pay for the game itself. Therefor you have to choose either to grind those hours or to temper with the files and give yourself 50 level of xp instantly with one mission.
All achievements are achievable.
I would not recommend this game in order not to feed into this system of porting mildly altered version of mobile ports for profit.
Es un juego agradable y tranquilo, muy parecido al Animal Crossing. Las tareas que te encargan los vecinos lo hacen más dinámico, y la posibilidad de decorar toda la isla en vez de solo tu casa me gusta bastante, pero hay mucha menos variedad en cuanto a muebles y decoración en el catálogo.
No. This is just. No. This is not an alternative to Animal Crossing. It's a sad cash grab. The dlc's downright don't work. Proper gameplay should be updated directly to the game, not put into a DLC like Stevie. The art style is different, and the character's are nice, but the execution is just terrible. Not even worth 5$ If you're looking for an alternative to Animal Crossing, get Hokko Life, or Cozy Grove.
Very good game, smooth gameplay.
Basically a poor quality knock off of animal crossing.
There's a bug with one of the very beginning quests involving Amelia that keeps you from progressing. After researching the bug and the current status of the game, it appears that the bug has been around for over a year, and the developers have stopped updating the game due to financial issues, which means this bug will likely not be fixed. I would love to recommend this game, but I just can't.
BUYER BEWARE!
This game is abandoned. It's not finished/buggy. DLC's do not work. The beta 'controller' dlc is not maintained and riddled with bugs. They did the same for the Nintendo Switch version. If the devs actually show up ever again and start to work on this game I will alter this review.
yes
Not bad but nothing exceptional.
Je recommande ce jeu pour un jeune enfant. C'est un peu une mise en bouche de jeu plus aboutit tel que cozy grove ou animal crossing. Le jeu se fini assez vite, et certains bug génère de la frustration mais dans l'ensemble pas mauvais
Donc ses points forts :
- Le design
- les effets
- Facile à utiliser
- c'est un peu comme dans animal crossing
Ses points faibles :
- aucun

N'oubliez pas de laisser un j'aime si tu trouve cet avis utile :)
This is a really cute game with adorable graphics.
bad. not enough game play. fun at first but got really boring very quickly.
bad
It's a journey like no other. A giant storm washes you up to shore covered in kelp. Helpless and lost you talk to an animal who appears to be the city mayor. She tells you about how tragic it is that the island has been ruined by the storm. After letting her know that you have no memory of who you are or where you are from she sets you up with a little tent and some starter tools. In order to live on the island you must become a slave to the people. Running errands, fixing buildings and planting crops. Not only do you have no money, you have to spend money to fix and grow things. As the island grows you learn that you can invest your money and learn about the stock market. This devised plan is all thanks to the mayor who is also in charge of the local bank. Little do they know that you are the back bone of the island and will one day out smart them so they cannot survive without you!
Over all it's not a bad game at all. It's a PC knock off of Animal Crossing and for the price you can't really complain.
Overall entertaining for the price but got sick of the game after about 12hours or so.
5/10. Esperaba más del juego, después de un tiempo se vuelve repetitivo. En realidad no hay mucho que se pueda hacer, a menos que te guste decorar.
Do you love games like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley at a cheaper price? A unique play and art style? Weird characters that send you on conceptually odd and strange missions? Farming and decorating? Catching fish, bugs, and shells for museums? STONKS?
Then you’ll adore Castaway paradise!
Castaway Paradise is a 1-player life simulation sandbox game on both PC and Nintendo Switch, and it is the perfect game to relax. I honestly spent my time in-between work and study sessions working my way up through levels, tending to gardens, planting many, many trees (you’ll see what I mean…), and running back and forth between each character to do their quests. I also adored the fact that, despite the fact that it makes you choose a set gender and does not let you change it (this only impacts pronouns that the characters use, from what I could tell), the game lets you choose any clothing style to wear without any gender constraints. Whatever you feel comfortable wearing, you get it!
The game first drops you into a short tutorial after you wash up on a storm-burdened island. It shows you how to walk, equip your items, water plants, harvest plants, and after a bit of talking, sets you free right off the bat. There are also little tutorials scattered about in the beginning quests that the characters give you, but otherwise, it lets you do as you please. You then start off much as you do in Animal Crossing: a tent to upgrade, basic equipment, three animals to befriend, and additional characters and areas to unlock via puzzle pieces that you can either buy yourself (at an expensive 2000 Gems per piece) or get via quests. Speaking of-
QUESTS
Each character always has a quest to give you and there’s no recharge time for any of them, and the rewards range from XP, Gems, items, and puzzle pieces. These quests go from simple things that take two minutes (picking up garbage, harvesting trees, etc) to more complex things that run over the course of a couple of days (planting rare plants, catching rare fish, etc.). Even though these quests consist of running around and doing chores, the humor involved with them makes them fun and odd. For example, Angus once made me fish for three specific fish (which took me three hours because of their rarity), then turned around and made me bury them far from him, then finally laughed when I came back, and sent me on my way as though I didn’t just make an impromptu funeral for three fish (those fish turned into skeletons, found this out when I went to clean up my island). Another quest sent me on a marketing campaign of the weirdest sorts. The shop owner heard of the concept of “spam emails” and took it to the next level. He had me deliver spam mail packages to the other animals to advertise for his store, who all thanked me for this spam in the cheeriest way possible. Those were about the oddest quests, and safe to say, after the shock wore off, I needed to put my switch down for five minutes to compose my laughter.
MAKING YOUR WAY – FARMING AND STONKS
Quests aren’t the only way to make money in Castaway Paradise. You can also fish, catch bugs (more on both later), farm, and invest in stocks. For farming, this is where the game starts to feel like Stardew Valley. Farming is one of the better ways to make money, especially farming trees. For tree farming: you can plant trees anywhere you like and once they grow, they give you their designated fruit twenty minutes after each time you water them. For regular farming: you originally only get one plot and a silo for it, which then expands to two and more storage in your silo with the addition of the left-most part of the island. Here, you can grow a variety of crops, from peppers to mushrooms, and you can upgrade each crop up to three times to make the maximum profit. However, each crop (and type of tree) takes a different amount of time to grow depending on the type of seeds. The most expensive and most valuable crops, mushrooms, took upwards of 3 days to grow, but the good thing is that when you level up, your crops and trees grow too! All the more motivation to accomplish other tasks. So really, the amount of time it takes to grow these crops depends on how much you play.
As for STONKS- I mean, stocks, the game has its own stock market system with which to make money, located within the bank portion of the town hall. This was a good way to make some quick (albeit small) money if I needed it and saved me a bunch of time whenever I was assigned an expensive crop or tree to grow. You just gotta time it right, and you’ll get a good chunk of change from it!
DECORATING
Castaway Paradise has an impressive decorating system, it has the same feel as AC: Home Decorator but is a little limited in that you can only place from what is in your player inventory instead of what is in your storage (though I personally enjoy that because it doesn’t feel too overwhelming). However, as opposed to AC, the game makes up for that with the option to decorate outside with the same features. The ability to buy the furniture you need outright from your catalog and have it right there for you to place where you want is also a bonus. Want that cool beach party vibe for your beachfront home? Buy your umbrellas, beach chairs, tiki torches, and get some coconut trees and put them down. Boom! You now have a pleasant place to chill or party outside.
This also works with planting/farming too! Just line up where you want your trees to be with holes/farm plots and place the seeds over the holes. Neat!
MUSEUM + BUGS, FISH, SHELLS
Also like Animal Crossing, Castaway Paradise has a pretty decent museum to unlock on the right portion of the island that can hold a wide assortment of bugs, fish, and shells. Catching bugs and fish can stack up a lot of money fast as well, and I found it to be easier than with AC because you can catch your hunt with a simple press of the button. Just make sure you’re not running around, as bugs can get scared and dart off (though they don’t despawn, which is much more forgiving than the regular Animal Crossing player’s heartbreak of an atlas beetle fluttering away forever because they didn’t see it), and fish tend to swim to another spot when you run in the water. In the summer months, you can also gather shells that wash up on the beach alongside trash and Gem bags, and donate these to the museum owner.
I have to say, after nearly completing the museum, I walked through it after having played this game for 50+ hours and it made me feel accomplished to see the podiums filled up. Though they aren’t actively running/flying/swimming around the room, they felt more like a beautiful art exhibit to behold.
IN CONCLUSION
For its price of $14.99, Castaway Paradise far exceeded my expectations in terms of life simulators. It replicates a good chunk of the feeling that both Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing: New Horizons bring with their decorator, farming, and overall concept of living among the animals, while also managing to bring its own unique qualities to the table. True to the spirit of life simulators, Castaway Paradise gives you the freedom to do whatever you want to do and build up your island into your own personal paradise.
I mean it's a cute game but I have no reason to play it over animal crossing.
I wanted to like this game, but it’s just terrible. Everything is time locked and you have to pay in game currency to speed it up. The controls are annoying. The camera is stuck at a weird angle which gives me motion sickness. And there is very limited character customization. You can’t change your skin tone, and each hair style is locked to one color.
Also the dlc doesn't even work
Świetna wciągająca gierka na długie godziny. Jesli ktos lubi stardew valley i lubi zbierac różne rzeczy, robic farmy i wiele wiele innych rzeczy to jest to gra dla niego <3 polecam kazdemu
UwU
Cooook uzun bir sure zevkle oynadim oyunu. Animal Crossing oynayamadigim icin bunu tercih etmistim. Gercekten de zevkliydi. Artik maalesef oyuna update, DLC vs gelmiyor. Degisik yapacak bir seyler ariyorsunuz ancak surekli kendini tekrar ettirici gorevler kaldi geriye. Yine de arada sirada adanizi ziyaret etmek keyifli oluyor. "Biraz vakit gecireyim kawga dowus oyunlar baydi" derseniz indirimde 3 liraya alin yine de.
5/10. Para se un Juego inspirado en Animal Crossing. Se olvidaron lo que hace divertido a dicha saga.
Esta bien para probarlo y mas si lo pillas en oferta ya es que barato. pero creo que hay otras alternativas si buscas juegos similares a Animal Crossing en Steam...
Простая в управлении, понятная и интуитивная игра. Можно выполнять несложные задания, выращивать огород, собирать коллекции, качать свой уровень, увеличивать доходы, купить дом и начать его декорировать. Восьмилетнему ребёнку, свободно владеющему английским игра очень нравится.
Was enjoying it until I ran into multiple bugs that have made the game unplayable

Castaway Paradise é um joguinho no qual você interage com uma comunidade de animais falantes, planta, pesca, pega animais e ajuda em missões.
Se assemelha muito àqueles joguinhos de celular e de rede social, pois a cada dia há novas missões sorteadas, prêmios por login diário, objetivos diários, etc.
Na essência, é um jogo bem bobinho, bem repetitivo e sem muita graça. Talvez seja legal para jogadores extremamente casuais ou crianças. Para mim, é uma grande perda de tempo, melhor comprar um Stardew Valley ou Harvest Moon.
Por isso, NÃO RECOMENDO.
This game has issues. You never know what breaks next.
Theoretically, it is a cheap PC alternative to a game like Animal Crossing - unless you actually want Animal Crossing. What you get is a predetermined Island Layout and Villagers that have maybe a little more of their own personality than the ones in AC do, but you can't build a friendship with them. There's some flavour text, but most of the time you'll only interact with them if they have a quest for you. And about those: you'll have to actively do other things around the island to do them, or you risk running out of gems, the in-game currency, because, more often than not, the Villagers will ask you to buy decorations or flower packets to place or plant, and will give you less gems than the cost of the items as a reward.
It has good ideas here and there, but the gameplay loop always stays the same - trees, water, crops, water, dailies, quests, and a lot of walking. There is also only a single background music track, which isn't bad, but some variety would have been nice, even if it's just for different seasons or events. Now, you might think this still doesn't sound too bad... but then there's the bugs. And I don't mean the ones you can catch, no, you'll get stuck talking to villagers with no dialogue box opening, in objects you were asked to put around the island, or you'll have objectives break leaving you unable to finish tasks - "Plant this flower!" sure, you do, and it works, and the next task for the quest says "Water [water-id: ]"
Also, if you want to play with a gamepad, there is a risk you'll just get stuck inside your house. If that happens, you can still play normally in the mouse and keyboard controlled game client on that save, but for the controller only beta (the only way to play with a gamepad at all, mind you), that save is effectively bricked. It's fun when it works, but it really only barely ever does so.
Ich habe dieses Spiel eine Stunde gespielt und musste es in der Zeit mehrfach neu starten, weil es komplett verbuggt war.
I played this game for a short while on mobile until I bought it on PC to get away from the in-app purchases. I've been playing it off and on for years and decided to redownload it recently to try to grab all the achievements over the summer. Now, I can't get the game to boot past the Stolen Couch logo screen. I tried the controller version and while it boots up, I can't get out of my house. I've already spent 7 hours on this save, I'm not going to start a new save just to see if I can get out of my house on that one. This game was never perfect, but I did like it when there were no other real-time Animal Crossing-like games on PC. Now, there are so many games like this. Castaway Paradise could have kept it's small section of the market if the developers put more time into it and listened to the community.
I'm disappointed that the devs have abandoned this game even as they still release it on Switch and other consoles just a few months ago. It's not even like the game never worked! I've spent hours in it, it's just the recent updates that have broken it. I don't know what to do, this game shouldn't be on steam if it flat-out doesn't work and the devs aren't interested in updating it.
Coqueto y tranquilo.
ไม่สนุกเลย เหมือนเกมมือถือ
Game abandoned by the developers. Full of bugs and lack of response from the company to fix the DLC bugs. I don't recommend it, don't waste your time with an abandoned game.
I liked this game on mobile, but it has since stopped working on Android -- and double checking just now, I see it's not even on the play store anymore. It hasn't been updated on iOS in 2 yrs, so I'm not even gonna download that one. Anyways, I bought it here on steam because I want to play it again. HOWEVER, I can't even get the stupid game to open past the loading screen! I waited 9 min for it to do something besides the Stolen Couch Games logo and it just... didn't. I may try the switch game, but I don't have much hope for that either. Be warned for those that want to play: the developer consistently abandons games (including this one).
I have a Switch, I have Animal Crossing which is a relaxing and premium quality AAA title. This released Yesterday On the Switch and for about £17.99. I decided to pick it up cheap to check out on pc rather than waste my money on the Switch. This is clearly trying to cash into the success of Animal Crossing but do yourself a favour and either avoid this or save up to a Switch and get ACNH. As this game is terrible if you compare them. Graphics are no where near as good or sound and if you turn off background music your almost left with nothing on the sound effects. And there just feels like there is no atmosphere. And others with more hours say tasks become repetitive and pointless. I don't see myself wasting too much time in here and I feel the £0.73p I paid for this game was still too much. I think the game is only 63mb as it's a mobile port so that says how much is in here I think. If your tempted pick it up on a sale. If you have never played Animal Crossing you may like it as you can't compare, but for anyone who has they will be very disappointed. And the pc version seems to be abandoned as like others say there's money to be make on the consoles rather than fix or add to pc. Switch e-shop games are non refundable, if your tempted check out the pc for a hour first before your kicking yourself on wasting your money. Don't say you weren't warned. Avoid.
Feels like a pointless grind. You end up being the villager's errand boy for little reward.
Similar to animal crossing and stardew valley.
I tried to like this game, but because the tecnicall promblems, repeated missions , and boring items and ideas it drive me off. At first i liked it but after 9 hours ι could not continue playing.
Game never gets past loading screen no matter how long you leave it. Save yourself the aggravation. Buy something else.
I keep returning to this game.
It's a typical mobile game that makes you return daily. Grow crops, complete quests, fish, catch insects and collect them all! Unlock more zones and buildings..
If you want a fun, cute, relaxing idle game this game will promise you many hours!
Jogo maneiro mas bem simples, comprei por 2 reais na promoção e me diverti bastante. Mas sinceramente coletar as conchas foi péssimo
