This is the best farming sim I have ever played (and I've played a lot of them)! Lots of reviews say its like Stardew valley and I agree that yes the base of the game is like Stardew but Coral Island goes so much further! There is so much to do and all of it stays interesting and rewarding. I love the art style and there's so many characters to meet and get to know. There's so many features that make the game so much more enjoyable like 'fast travel' to get around easier and even in the settings you can slow down the time in the game. You can also turn off monsters attacking you if the mines feel overwhelming. It also pauses the time when you decorate your house which is a must. I initially thought I wouldn't be interested in diving very much but it is actually my favorite activity. Festivals are so much fun with unique and enjoyable mini games. There's more animal and crop options and lots of things to upgrade. You can take things at your own pace and focus on what ever goals you want to. I love that this game includes increasing the town rank and making offerings to the Goddess. Both are the right amount of challenging and rewarding. There is a lot to explore. I really can't come up with a complaint about this game and I highly recommend it!

I absolutely adore this game but it seriously needs to still be in early access. The bugs are unreal. I still recommend it though but don't buy it expecting a complete/finished game.

I really enjoyed the game up to year two! It's very relaxing and the addition of a sea level is very cool compared to other games of this genre. However I did the mistake and I adopted a fox as a pet and it keeps making a constant annoying call that you can't mute and you can't un-adopt it. When I say constant, I mean every 3 seconds. I had to uninstall after a few days having her since my relaxing experience became TORTURE. Just don't get Luna guys. Its painful and you can't do anything about it.

First of all, I want to express my deep regret for the laid of the entire team that created this game and for the "restructuring" of Humble Games. I think it's horrible, that the message (which yes, has all the hallmarks of being AI) expressed by the company is super derogatory towards its former employees. I find it insulting to say that they have them in "their thoughts and prayers", when without a bit tiny of disgust, they have left 36 people without a job. Ziff Davis, you are a piece of garbage of a human being. That said, I come to give my sincere review of this game. I have about 540.1 hours of play at the time of this review. And let's take it one step at a time, I'm 49 years old and I've been playing farming games since the original Harvest Moon on SNES (yeah like 25 years ago). I've played the Gameboy ones, the DS ones, the Rune Factory ones and all the others. They are one of my favorite games of all time. That's why when I saw Stardew Valley, I said to myself "hey, this is a terrible copy of Harvest Moon." And yes, it is!! xD But after 1540 hours in Harvest Moon (and I’ll play some more) I can say that Eric Barone's work transcends the original inspiration and has created a tremendous game that gives hours and hours of fun, chill and great moments. You can’t hate him, is a god. Periodt. So, when I saw Coral Island (and mermaids! because I love mer-people) I bought this game without a word. I bought it very early on, and I went back to play it again this year. And I said to myself "hey, this is a Stardew Valley copy!!!" xDDDDDDDD BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT, after more than 540 hours of play, I want to express my deep gratitude to the development team of this game. It's noticeable that they didn't reinvent the wheel in mechanics or crops, but you can see in every part of this, any graphic, there’s the deep respect that the entire Humble games team (which that *&%&$·"$&/((!! fired without a MINIMAL bit of empathy) has for Barone's work. Aware that they were taking things from Stardew Valley, they paid homage to them in Coral Island. From the spring music theme that is basically the same as Barone's but with differences because of copyright, to the character they dedicated to him and who sells us things, it's remarkable what the team achieved with so little support from their management. The graphic section, the inclusion, the differentiation of characters is where they managed to make the difference. The characters feel good, the stories are nice (I love funbucket and his cueeeks), we have an additional underwater kingdom and a lot of things that go hand in hand with mysticism, and a beauty of graphic scenarios, and modifiable characters with respect to the non-binary, which I loved. Also the respect for tradition, for people, environment, I mean, is crazy!!! I'm not saying that the game is perfect, it has many flaws too, in the logic of development, for example: In many scenes you couldn't make decisions, you just followed a story. Stardew allows you to screw it up and take away points, in that sense I feel that the game takes away your freedom of decision and in what is RPG, the possibility of screwing it up is missing. The cleaning of the ocean, seriously, is no. I hated that part for a lot, gods. The map is super extensive, I felt like I spent the whole game cleaning trash, and worse, every time I go to the bottom of the sea there is even more trash T____T There are certain characters, like the children and several others, that I feel lack personality, that they express more what they DON'T like. The game is too positive, the only conflict I saw is in the people of the vineyard, in watary and his father and in pufferfish, I feel that it lacks more drama xD And bugs…sigh But just as stardew was a beautiful game based in Harvest Moon, Coral Island is a beautiful game based in stardew. But is different, ‘cause Barone could take his huge master piece step by step growing into what is his game now, coral island have those wings cut. I mean it, if you can take this game as stardew, in some years, could be, ufff.... but i don't think that is possible. I received the last update with sadness and anger. I want to play it, and I want to play it for a long time. I would paid all the DLC stuff, hell yea, i would love to play it in multiplayer, but where is the soul of this game going to be if none of its developers are around anymore? I've seen positive community reception to 1.1, but seeing it still appear that you can get "stuck" because the game is "still in development" when none of the great people and artists who developed this game are there, with their vision, to carry it forward, makes my heart sink. I’ve no hope for a multiplayer (my dream is like, mr Barone buys this game and hire the original team, but that’s not going to happen ._____.) Do I recommend this game? Yes, very much. IS BEAUTIFUL!, is wholesome, is fun, I love it just like a love harvest moon, rune factory and aaall the hours I’ve playing farming games. But keep in mind that the life of Coral Island is limited to corporate needs, full of greed and market needs, where people don't matter and are dismissed from one day to the next. It's sad, but Pufferfish, at Humble games, won. ._______.
