As a castaway you strand on a remote island. And that's just the beginning of a survival adventure with a big helping of goofy slapstick fun! Build your own paradise resort and keep an eye on those ex tofu lovers who have a habit of working up the wrong kind of appetite...
The game features 96 turn-based match-3 puzzle levels across three difficulty settings - Normal, Casual, and Relaxed. Players can swap adjacent tiles to create matches of 3 or more of the same type in order to clear each level. The game also includes additional mini-game elements, such as 15 standalone solitaire levels, tile-swapping jigsaw puzzles, and text-based quests.
Players praise the well-balanced and challenging match-3 gameplay. Levels present a variety of obstacles and enemy types that require strategic thinking to overcome. For example, certain enemies can only be defeated by making matches in a specific order. Players can utilize power-ups like bombs, lightning, and rockets to clear difficult areas. The turn-based nature, rather than a strict time limit, allows for more thoughtful planning of moves.
The mini-games are well-integrated into the overall experience, providing a nice change of pace from the core match-3 levels. As players progress, they can also use their earnings to build and upgrade a resort on the island, though this feature is more cosmetic than gameplay-impacting.
While a few levels are noted as being heavily reliant on luck rather than skill, the majority of the match-3 puzzles are praised as well-designed and appropriately challenging. The ability to replay levels and chase 3-star completions adds valuable replayability, as does the game's achievement system which provides additional goals for players to work towards.
