Rock the Islands

I think a lot of these positive reviews are either paid, fake or by people who don't have a higher bar for quality and are easily pleased. Having to constantly respawn and lose all of your gathered materials, because the AI can't assist you, gets rather tiring after a couple of hours. The enemies increase in power far quicker than you and eventually end up overwhelming you and your puny AI helpers. The overall concept seems okay, but I've already had enough after two hours and don't wish to play any longer. The combat is fairly dismal, to be honest. You prioritise gathering materials over enemies when they ambush you, which leads to more deaths than I feel is acceptable. This leads back into the endless respawning issue. I made a ton of upgrades to my defence, gathered a fair amount of regenerative perks (?) and it made no difference whatsoever. I was still dying in three or four hits. If that is the entire gameplay loop, dying over and over, then it's a hard no.

very good survival

Sh*t game, full of "features" that just make the game worse and a chore to play. You lose all resources and money on death, and your dwellers don't revive you. Pirates can raid you at any time, including when you're in a minigame. More than half of my dwellers died on the pirate ship, and the ship left, leaving the bodies floating in mid air where I couldn't reach them. Combat is awful and the devs seem to not care about appealing to their playerbase. Solo is miserable and resources aren't shared in co-op. The roulette wheel has a pretty sizeable chance to just kill you, and if you're on solo that means losing everything because dwellers don't revive. You can buy roulette coins with real money, basically promoting gambling. Reminder that this game is available to children with steam, and promotes itself as family friendly.

The gameplay is like a festival, with people wearing bright Hawaiian shirts and large straw hats dancing around bonfires and building sandcastles. You listen to music, and there are instruments such as singing seashells and maracas that even cause the trees to sway. It is so much fun and energetic, giving you a vacation feeling, as if you are free from all the stress of everyday life

The game kind of gave me Zelda/Stardew Valley vibes and reminds me of a mobile game just without all the annoying pop-up ads and awful wait times. Definitely had a lot of fun playing it! I would recommend it, took 6 hours for 2 people to finish it. At least that's 6 hours I wasn't bored and didn't have to spend money! Thanks for the fun time!

Great little co-op game. Gather resources, fight zombies, level up. Highly recommend for a single weekend game.
