8 of 15BEST GAME OF MY LIFE ( and that’s from an adhd kid lol) I LOVE MY PENGUINS YAY
Best game I’ve had in a while, it can entertain you for hours (and take it by a 12 yr old adhd kid lol) BUT, I have 2 ideas that might make the day bettah. First, take the ads off. I can be enjoying my game is peace and then I get a stupid ad (sowi but it’s true) Second, if possible, make it so you can play offline. I try to play offline but it always kicks me out. Again, great game, if ur reading this, buy the game, it’s worth it <br/><br/>Byeeee my Valentinossss
Don’t wait waste your time or else you’ll lose everything if the app crashes. I lost all my progress and it doesn’t save your progress accurately, super buggy. I’m very disappointed.
This game has beautiful graphics and a very relaxing atmosphere, which makes it enjoyable to play when you want something calm and low stress. The overall design and visual style are clearly well thought out and that part of the experience is genuinely great.<br/><br/>Unfortunately the number of ads really takes away from the gameplay. There are frequent ad based mechanics and progression often feels tied to watching ads rather than actually playing. On top of that many of the ads are unusually long or feel strange and out of place which makes the experience even more frustrating and interrupts the relaxing flow the game is trying to create.<br/><br/>A good solution would be to offer an affordable monthly subscription (for example around $10) that removes ads and eliminates ad dependent features. This would still allow the developers to earn income while giving players a smoother and more enjoyable experience. I would happily pay that instead of the ads and micro transactions.<br/><br/>Another option could be bringing the game to Apple Arcade. The relaxing style of the game would fit perfectly where players can fully enjoy it without constant interruptions.<br/><br/>Overall the game has strong potential because of its visuals and calming vibe but reducing the reliance on long and excessive ads would make a huge difference.
Penguin Isle is visually beautiful and calming. The graphics, aesthetic, and sound design are excellent: from the penguin noises to the mellow music and splashing. The variety of penguins and Arctic animals adds charm and makes the island feel alive.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, progression is overwhelmingly ad-driven. After a short time, it stops feeling like you’re playing a game and starts feeling like the game is playing you. <br/><br/>Advancement depends on watching way too many ads, many of which are incredibly unpleasant and strange, completely breaking the relaxing atmosphere.<br/><br/>Once the novelty wears off, you’re stuck in the same loop: watch ads, unlock a small upgrade, repeat. What should be relaxing turns into a rat race and a waste of time. Great presentation, but the aggressive ad model and the games many redundancies ruins the experience of “playing” a game
游戏画风很好玩法也不错很爱玩但是在新手教程之后发现无法观看广告显示一直在加载中希望修复
This game is really cute and fun love it it is harder to get money but that makes it more fun
The game is good and it reminds me of AbyssRium Pole (RIP) but I recommend you should do a daily streak with rewards like gems or new penguins, decorations, or creatures. I really love this game and it’s very similar to other cool games like Forest island or AbyssRium World.
