I will never stop playing this game, so many things i can list. for one there many ways to get gems just by opening the app daily or watching videos. they slightly push the gem choices on you but after you say no everyone is nice and they dont drag on you for not picking it and when you do chose a gem option it is so worth the gems i promise you that. the game is so intuitive about your character and their personality just from the options you choose, they have so much diffren dialogue no matter how many times you play it through just based on your personality. each season is so different and that makes it so much fun and if you don’t like a season the next one will probaly be better. if there is a problem the support staff are so friendly and help solve it quickly. i’ve been playing this game for years even when it was on the other app and it is by far my favorite mobil game of all, definitely checkout the first love island game if you like this one. i could say so much more
Good game but more opportunities for friendzoning please!!
I really think that the game is well thought and the plot twist and storylines are quite entertaining. However, I really wish that we could reject people that we aren’t interested in and have more opportunities to go for the people we really want. In tempting fate I desperately tried to couple up with Theo because he was the only one I liked out of the og boys but the game didn’t let me. So I coupled up with Oakley but tried to keep it casual like a friend couple and tried to graft on Theo. I have literally chosen everyone except Tyler over Oakley and was happy that he got dumped but the game annoyed me with bringing him back. After Casa I just tried to be happy with max and show everyone how into him I am but the others just weren’t focusing on their own couples. It is so annoying that the game didn’t give you the opportunity to friend zone people or tell them you aren’t interested. I would also love to have the opportunity to be more mean to people and show them that I don’t like them but instead the character just forgets about most of the stuff. Another bad aspect is that you don’t have to opportunity to say that you aren’t interested in any of the characters yet. I would also like to have the first seasons back since they were the most entertaining ones. Overall it’s a nice game and I feel like with some improvement of the characters and the choices it would be lovely to play.
I was a huge fan of the old Love Island app which brought me to playing this one, but I found myself very dissatisfied with the major differences between the two apps. To start off, the fact that it seems like the characters are trying to push you into spending more diamonds on choices that reveal information that doesn’t really affect the story and/or are made out to seem way more spicier than they actually are at times is very off putting. It would be different if these choices weren’t so high all the time but quite literally almost every single diamond choice (clothing included) is nearly 20 diamonds, while the $5 diamond pack is only 65 diamonds, so you’ve run out again after purchasing by only making three choices. Plus, the fact that we’re forced to watch ads after every single chapter, I’d hope we’d at least be granted with more diamond deals to create a sort of balance. And the whole having to wait 4 hours just for two tickets isn’t it either, maybe 2 hours for 2 would be better, but only receiving one after so long is disappointing. It just seems that this app is less focused on the fun of the game and the storylines and more on making money. Definitely makes the game less fun. The characters are fun and interesting and the game overall would receive 5 stars from me if changes in these areas were made.
I used to love the game. Seasons 1-3 were actually really great. So when season 4 was dropping on an entirely new app I was more then willing to give it a shot but it was a huge flop. All of a sudden it seemed like your choices weren’t yours to make and no matter what route you chose you’d end up the same. (Previously seasons really allowed you to control your destiny and you could play over and over again and always get a different outcome) this app has completely taken away the best aspects of love island. Now if you thought season 4 was bad wait until you see season 5, it’s Boring with a capital B! You have even less control over your story and they just completely force people on you that you have no interest in. You don’t even have much control over you MC’s appearance besides her hair and clothes. There are limited options for your responses and the personally is flat. I’m really upset, after waiting week after week and making no progress I’ve decided to stop playing. I recommend playing one of the earlier seasons on the other love island app. It’s more entertaining. More versatile and just an overall better experience for what love island should be about. This one is tacky, limited, and just a waste of time. If you haven’t played seasons 1-3 then I suggest you do and if you have played them then you know exactly what I’m talking about. I wished fuse games would’ve done better but at this point I’ve lost faith that they ever will.
Double Trouble is hands down the worst, right next to Ex in the Villa. Ex in the Villa had so much potential, but they won’t allow you to couple up w who you want. Suresh is beyond annoying and not even cute to look at. Double trouble takes the cake for me, Amelia literally takes everything from the MC! I coupled up w Jamal, she came n as a bombshell and stole him, they forced me onto Roberto. We get to Casa Amor and she steals Marshall…and get back to the villa and doesn’t want either of them, & wants the bombshell boy, that would literally be my only other pick…Toby. Toby immediately comes in all about Amelia, get no alone time w Jamal or Marshall. Literally forced to pick girls or guys I don’t want at all! The idea of having the twin sister come n to take everything from the other sister instead of be a team is so crazy, and on top of that, they give you options to “air her out” about what she’s doing. Like the MC is just there, being tossed around like lettuce. Stick or Twist was the best by far but it’s not as long as the other ones…might replay to get a different outcome. Bombshell is okay, I don’t see the MC partnering w anyone outside of James whom is not that attractive… This game needs 100x more! The outfits the features the choices, and not charge you real money, like 29 gems for something you will eventually find out is crazy. Give us more choices and better looking characters please!
I’ve already seen many reviews written out that agree with the sentiment of the title. I was devoted fan and follower of Love Island: The Game from Season 1 all the way to Season 4. S1 and S2 were my favorites. S3 wasn’t great, but at least the islanders were nice to us. S4 was pushing it but they had some good love interests. But it all comes down to whatever abomination S5 is. None of the choices you make affect anything because it’s a linear style of story (unlike previous seasons where your choices actually mattered). Spending gems on “special” scenes don’t change anything either and I was dumb enough to think it would. Almost every single islander is outright toxic, manipulative, gaslighting, and a total snake to the MC. It feels like no matter what we do, we’re always the villain. Just when you think someone is starting to go your way, you get backstabbed. It’s pretty disgusting. Also, not very important, but the outfits for S5 are just… why? Do the writers even know what women like to wear? I kid you not, the female characters talk about ‘night makeup’ that they put on before bed. Nobody does this. I don’t know what the new team is thinking or what made them believe that this new method of storytelling was a good idea. But I hope for their sake that they take notes of what everyone is saying and fix it if they plan on making another season. Because I sure am not supporting Fusebox anymore if it’s anything like S5.
I literally just left a review, but I’ve since been playing Season 5 and it’s awful in comparison to the others. There is nonstop drama, and I know it’s for entertainment purposes, obviously, but there’s so much sketchy stuff happening in this newest season!! You can’t really customize your character like you used to be able to do in earlier seasons. Everything costs an arm and leg!! It’s nearly impossible to just play without the constant pressure to buy gems with real money to wear certain outfits. Another thing, everybody is so mean and two faced on here! Like Suresh is bad enough all on his own, but then all of the other guys are also just really not into your character at all! No matter how you choose to play it!! I’ve tried switching from overly nice and kind and taking a more aggressive approach, no matter how you play it, it’s almost the same kind of results every-time and again, way too much hate, drama, & bullying happening!! Really disappointed as this used to be my favorite game ever! I’ve also been looking forward to the new season so much and have still been giving it a chance, even after I’ve been feeling unhappy with how it’s going. It’s just getting worse and actually stressing me out in real life! It’s supposed to be somewhat of a fantasy or relaxing kind of past time isn’t it, these games? I’m not getting that vibe at all anymore sadly. I hope there will be some changes.
Love Island the Game has really took a turn downhill
After the catastrophe that is season 4, I was hoping on some stroke of luck that season 5 would be better but god was I wrong. I want to give it the benefit of the doubt and see where it goes but at this point I’m just disappointed. The “volumes” are way too short, they never used to split days between episodes before why now; having to wait a whole week to see what happens next, makes me want to quite playing; AND THE DAY AND NIGHT CYCLE IS STILL SCREWED. The storyline had so much potential but Suresh is really giving psycho ex, I can get the point with you being stuck with him but he just can’t take no for an answer; and forcing characters onto the MC as we have said many times before WE DON’T LIKE IT. The art style could be way better, it’s as if no thought was put into the outfits and with the lack of POC hairstyles; season 4 was way more impressive. The Devs clearly don’t care anymore or just don’t listen to their players, it feels like it’s all for the money than actually making good content. If you never fired the old team, you would actually have a game people would love again like the first couple of seasons. We would rather you take your time and create a game with a great storyline and character customization instead of the trash you continue to give us.
Season 5 of Love Island the Game is possibly one of the worst games I’ve ever played. Let’s list everything they’ve done wrong so far; First, unlike the other seasons and Love Island the TV show, you don’t start off with 10-11 characters. You start off with 7. That already is annoying enough. Then, you don’t get to know ANYTHING about our character other than she is Suresh’s ex, that’ll continue until the current episode. We can’t choose an occupation or anything. Next, your character isn’t allowed to dress herself or pick out her own clothes, the girls have to do it for you. If you don’t wear what they say, they basically bully you. About the bullying, it’ll continue throughout the whole game. Every single person that comes in will treat your MC like dog crap. The guys aren’t interested in you, other than Suresh (which he’ll still flirt and couple up with other girls) and Alfie (who will come up to you every episode to see if you’re interested in him). If you’re interested in girls, who cares? Not Fusebox. They’ll have it so Dana gets every girl who comes in. Every episode is about who can bully MC the hardest or how she’s Suresh’s ex. It’s exhausting and not worth the download. Plus, they’re trying to charge 50 gems for outfits and A LIPSTICK. C’mon now. Replay season 2 and get a loyal boy, have an MC with a backbone, read interesting dialogue, and there’s ACTUAL character development!
The new season “Double Trouble” is so refreshing compared to the first two seasons. I really like how many more choices have been included to choose from and the diverse character creation. The only issue is the currency. It’s so clear how desperate the developers want the readers to spend real money on the diamonds/passes. You need money, I get it. We all do. But, maybe make it to where its actually worth spending money? It’s not incentive enough to spend when all you get is a lame compliment from the game characters for buying a 20 diamond swimsuit. You feel me? Some ideas I have in mind is you could offer a monthly/yearly vip subscription for unlimited passes & 5 diamonds a day? Just add anything to make the in-game purchases more reasonable. Also, a 5 hour wait to watch 1 ad for 1 diamond when things cost 10 diamonds and up is absolutely absurd. At the very least, maybe add surveys? Adding more adverts to watch for diamonds like 1 every 30 minutes will benefit this app greatly considering how low the reviews are. Just throwing ideas out there, I want nothing but success for the developers since I really do love this game! Wish you all the best and hoping you’ll consider my advice as a hardcore simulation gamer!
As someone who has been playing every season live since S1, I can definitively say that S5 is absolutely the worst season of Love Island The Game - it is genuinely baffling to me how far the quality has dropped. The characters are one dimensional, not swayed by your choices, and even the player character feels flat compared to other seasons. So much is behind a paywall that I feel I’m barely playing the game, but there aren’t ways to earn enough diamonds to fully participate without paying money. One scene I did pay diamonds for was not only super short but also didn’t have any effect on the game and how a character treated me, making it feel worthless. Not only that, but I’ve seen multiple typos in various dialogue or descriptions which only further reinforces my view that this season was created with a very tight deadline and quick turnaround that didn’t allow for the same quality of storytelling as previous seasons. I was already not a fan of the new app but willing to go along for the ride last season because there were fuller characters to pursue and more achievements that awarded diamonds, but this whole season feels slapdash and honestly almost insulting. I really hope Fusebox is able to come back from this but honestly after this season my hopes are not high at all.
First three seasons on the other app were amazing but season four felt really kind of like forced as to who your friends with and stuff I love Angie but no one even asked me if I wanted her to be my best friend the game just decided. Still an enjoyable playing though just not quite as good but then season five is so much worse despite the fact that Alfie is the only guy I have zero attraction to the game has seriously forced me into being with him despite trying to do everything in my power not to be and then tried to guilt trip me for not liking him. I’m stuck with my jerk ex for the first 18 episodes and then when it finally feels like we’re getting somewhere and I’m like OK maybe I will give us another chance he goes right back to being a total jerk and then not picking me up at re-coupling which took over a third of the season to get to and I’m forced to be with either Alfie or become Bi even though I’m not this is definitely the most toxic season they’ve ever done to nobody except for Alfie and maybe Dana aren’t awful nonstop fighting nonstop drama honestly I’m like stressed out playing the game I honestly wanted to be voted off the island. I’m seeing people are liking season six so hopefully next season will be better if it’s not I think I’m done with the game.
I mostly love this game, don’t get me wrong. But y’all truly need to release more than 3 episodes a week. It’s nothing. You’re giving us scraps. This weeks content was honestly a let down and I truly can’t believe I need to wait 7 days to get back into the villa after I’ve been totally pied off by my sister. It’s crazy. I should be able to tell that girl off too. Better options and I feel like our choices should matter more. Another example, Elliot picks us no matter how we treat him so we are just taken against our will (in my case) & then everyone in casa is acting like we are married but actually I don’t give a heck about him. Just kinda takes you out of it when I rejected him at every opportunity & he chooses me anyway. It just wouldn’t happen. And if you pursue Marshall, he pies you regardless which is drama and that’s fine but the fact that we really can’t let them have it and call them out is lame. This season is an improvement like leaps and bounds over the disaster that was ex in the villa but I still feel like small/rare releases and high gem amount choices is robbing us of a good experience. This game has potential to be 5 stars.
Season 1 was engaging enough for me to play season 2 (which I have replayed multiple times). Season 3 was okay. Season 4 started out well but crash landed and season 5 was just boring. At the end of season 5 I didn’t care who I picked , or that Bobby from season 2 was the MC, or the speeches or dates….today’s three episodes were quite frankly just a last minute money grab. While the art was good for season 5 the story was lackluster, choices meh, opportunity to get to know other islanders and number of islanders was practically non existent. The rating could have def been rated for 12+ not 17+ and frankly I didn’t want to play a kids game. Know your audience-which you obviously no longer do. Your competition “CoupleUp” is def worth waiting for, IF fusebox comes out with a season 6 I won’t be following updates. You guys peaked at season 2 and it’s been downhill from there. It’s too bad, I really enjoyed the game for awhile and was def interested in giving each new season a chance but I’m done now. I don’t know what is going on with story writing and willingness to have the same complexity of season 2 but unfortunately I am no longer interested in the game. That’s too bad because I was so excited for season’s 3 and beyond. I have absolutely no idea how you guys have a 4.1 rating.
The new season (season 5) of Love Island the Game is literally just “let’s see how long we can force players to put up with being berated, gaslit, and forced into an emotionally abusive relationship before they either delete the game or literally lose their minds”. The characters are all terribly written and hateful (except for two, who will likely become terribly written and hateful within another update or two), the storylines are laughable in how much of a leap each character makes to drag MC through the mud only for everyone to forget literally the next episode and get mad at MC for daring to still be upset. LITG has been GARBAGE since FuseBox fired their old writing team and this is truly a new low. Love Island The Game is not a dating sim anymore. It is a “get abused and gaslit” sim. And Fusebox has deleted thousands of reviews and paid people to fraudulently rate it five stars to try and hide that fact. DO NOT be fooled by the 4-star rating of this app, it is NOT reflective of the quality of storytelling or even artwork that Fusebox is putting out these days. Find your interactive story fix elsewhere if you value your sanity and your ability to make choices that matter, as Fusebox would clearly rather be writing terrible movies than interactive games with branching storylines.
I actually LOVE this game and that’s why I’m frustrated. I’m not sure if the US version is different but online I’m seeing other versions where you get way more gem opportunities - like videos after each chapter that gives you a gem. I don’t have that. The version I have you only get between 0-2 gems for logging in each day, and then an option to watch two videos for a single gem each, once a day. And each gem storyline costs 10-29 gems. So essentially without spending a ton of money, you get a bland storyline. I know this is a typical model of these kinds of games, however with others like Chapters, Episodes, or Choices - there’s TONS of free opportunities for gems. It was more accessible and makes playing more fun. I don’t mind spending here and there but I can’t be spending 5 dollars for every single chapter it’s not sustainable. If this game had more opportunities for gems I would rate it 5/5.
I have been playing the love island games since season 1 was released. I have played all seasons, 1 & 2 many times because they were my favorite. Season 3 went downhill, 4 was worse and now season 5, ex in the villa is the WORST! The extreme lack of options is ridiculous. Some of the characters have distorted, weird attributes and aren’t attractive at all. Their hairstyles are awful, and some of their eyes and faces look distorted and out of proportion. Season 1 & 2 were 10-15 for most outfits. Now, the cost of gems for some outfits is between 10-70. Many of the outfits are ridiculous, over the top and hideous. Shoes are separate from the outfits, but you can’t even see them while playing. What is the point in spending gems on shoes if you can’t even see them? There is basically one route no matter what “choices” you make. They force the same characters on you whether you like them or not. There’s only a few more episodes left in the season and MC still hasn’t been in a good couple. This season has been extremely disappointing. I am hoping that the ending somehow makes up for it, sadly though I have a strong feeling it won’t. I use to buy gems on the original game. I will definitely not be buying any now.
SMDH so season 4 I didn’t finish I got bored and gave up hoping that season 5 will have some improvements since 4 was boring and the dialogue were not good interesting. However season 5 is a dumpster fire, I know fuse box hasn’t been doing too well since season 2 and all the drama that followed but come on now. The concept isn’t bad but the execution isn’t were it goes wrong. Having an EX in the villa is one thing but this season is so toxic!! The MC isn’t the main Interest to anyone. AND SHES THE MAIN CHARACTER! Ok not EVERYONE needs to like the MC but the only person into MC is the ex and he doesn’t take “no” for an answer. If someone tells you no it should be end of the constant pushing the ex and MC together is disgusting and at this point. I know y’all don’t like hearing too much negative and have been deleting bad comments, but honestly just take notes, take this on the chin, and try and improve. Again, season 2 was great! Season 3 felt like a summer camp but wasn’t too bad and season 1 was a trial but was pretty good as well. If you need more writers, developers or employees branch out and hire. A lot of people of the Reddit do stories themselves and many of them are AMAZING!! Some also to custom characters which are fantastic as well.
Seriously, you’re going to write in the game this gross pressure to buy outfits and private chats but force us to spend our hard earned money on this game. It’s like if I don’t spend money, my choices are made up for me. You have to spend money to change the outcome and that would be okay if there were other ways to get the coins. Like watch ads or quests like Bombshell had for Ex on the Beach. I used to enjoy this game and now I close the app halfway through a chapter because it’s annoying, I don’t want the MC to end up with either of the guys she’s being forced to chat with, I just feel like this entire game is a scam to get us to spend our money to make a difference in the outcome. And let’s circle back to the gross pressure to buy stuff. It’s not just one time asking. I’m being asked 3 times now “are you sure you don’t want this outfit? Yours is…. Boring” “you just won’t stand out! You’ll be outshined by me” gross. Stop. We’re not doing this. Let my choices make a difference, stop desperately begging me to spend money, give us chances to earn coins and stop with the disgusting display of “peer pressure” to buy stuff. Just let people enjoy the game even if they can’t afford to shell out money for it
I really enjoy this game but the amount of diamond choices is seriously out of control. There are times when you'll get 3 diamond prompts in a row! And the dialogue for these prompts is soooooo long. Half of the game is the characters trying to convince you to spend diamonds. You miss a ton of the plot if you try to get through without spending any real world money. Not to mention, if you do the math, the diamonds are so expensive! There's no way I could justify spending $2 on a single interaction! I could see myself buying more diamonds if the options were cheaper and my money would stretch further. The ticket system is also pretty frustrating. I'm the type of person who wants to sit down at the end of the day and play several episodes rather than play one episode every several hours. With the ticket system, especially with how long it takes to earn new ones, I'm much more likely to completely forget about the game. I'm sure I'm not the only one. And if you do buy tickets, you will not accumulate anymore until you're back to 0. Very annoying.
I just have no words…..The new team ruined this game
After playing Too hot to handle, I can write this confidently saying this game is absolutely ridiculous. You’re having us SPEND money on choices that have NO repercussions. I can switch my love interest millions of times in these seasons and do whatever I want and the other characters do NOT care at all. There’s absolutely no branching, the writing is terrible, character customizations is okay but, you guys really need to up your game. It’s so hysterical how this game has literally downgraded from the previous seasons (1-3)…. I’m in shock. I wish you guys would ACTUALLY listen to the people spending HUNDREDS on your game and please just please take more time writing. I want to be able to replay the season to explore different love interest but it’s so discouraging when all the routes are the same and the ‘different’ love interests all say the same thing…..word for word. I’m surprised to say that I’ve kept playing for this long but you guys have serious competition now against a team that doesn’t use ai for writing, actually listens to their customers, doesn’t make you spend hundreds on choices that don’t even matter, and actually has a BRANCHING storyline.
The Ex season has potential. The art style of MC is pretty bad. Hate the face shape and face features. Like the piercing options. Love the body options too. Hairstyles also not poc friendly. No braids, Afro… etc. I hate how much the app tries to pander to kids instead of adults. This show is for adults. Stop trying to make this game so kid friendly its weird. SEASON 4. Wow after the finale this has been a huge disappointment of a season. Only slightly better then season 3 which was completely a friendship island. I don’t think I’ll play this again based one season 4. This is barely a Love Island game at this point. The ending was so terrible. Choices don’t matter. All LI have the same dialogue. Lesbian LI goes with a guy if you don’t pick them??? MC has a backbone only sometimes. So many recouplings, dumplings sucked. Couldn’t tell how many days passed. Way shorter than previous seasons but stretched to seem long. Terrible especially midway through to the end. Oliver gets so little time with MC. Kelly didn’t even matter but she’s advertised everywhere. Terrible game and terrible season. Don’t think I’ll be playing again, Fusebox doesn’t care about the readers or the game.
so i’ve never played these games as majority of the comments have and are complaining, so this is an unbiased review here. i played bombshell and really enjoyed it. i’d rate that alone 4 stars :) i ended up being bruno’s girlfriend! i’m barely starting the ex in the villa. but overall i’d say there needs to be improvements in every department. i’ll admit i spent money on gems / tickets but only bc i was impatient and didn’t wanna wait a total of 4 hours for 2 tickets. that’s problem number one for me. at least give us 4 tickets bc it’ll be 1 ticket every hour basically. 2 hours seems too long, especially since some episodes are VERY short / irrelevant (a musical really iykyk). I saw that pattern in bombshell. my second issue is customization. not a lot of free options available but i guess that’s what makes YOU purchase gems from the creators. it’s giving Episode vibes which i hate. my other complaint is there’s only 2 seasons available ? the bombshell and ex one. idk where the other seasons ppl are saying are but yeah. anyways y’all devs are welcome for the money i spent 😂
this is literally one of my favorite mobile games i’m so obsessed. it’s much better than other similar apps like episode because if you don’t have enough gems for an option, picking the free option won’t force you to do something mean or detrimental, and the characters don’t get mad about it. the reason why i gave it four stars though is because i do have a small issue with how many gems clothes and special choices cost. it’s not ridiculously high like other games but it is still a little unreasonable considering how few ways there are to gain gems. if you want gems you either have to buy them or spend a week watching ads every day to get like 17 gems which is enough for maybe one choice or a cheap item of clothing 🥲. i’d love it if either you could get a lot more gems from ads like 7 or 9 instead of 1 or 2 and keep the prices the same, or lower the prices by like two thirds 😭 and keep the reward for ads at 1 or 2 gems. that’s all though, and otherwise, i love this game. also i forget that the characters are all british and it’s really funny to me because they’ll say the weirdest things and i’ll be so confused until i realize it’s british slang. also i still imagine 98% of their voices as american anyways 🤭. but british slang makes everything so much funnier! (even though it’s probably not supposed to.) anyways, i’m just yapping at this point, but the main point is that it’s really good game, but gems are a little hard to get.
I like the game but come on waiting 4,5,& 8 hours for free gems is ridiculous. I can see 3 maybe 4. But 5&8 hours is crazy. We already have to pay to go play nowadays for every game to be more enjoyable but wow! I use to come back and get free gems until they slowly for almost two whole weeks for new chapters but it’s not even worth waiting to redeem free gems and saving them. You literally chose what decisions and scenes you want based on gems which I understand. But if you have for ex, say 50 gems a choice of clothing can cost like 28 or 30 and then you’re stuck with wanting to make a cool choice then your down to like 8 then have to wait a long axx time again for more gems. Y’all can at least make it more suitable with the gems and tickets. Also, why can’t y’all let us chose cute clothes rather than fancy for like 5 gems instead of ten. What if I only had 10 gems at the time? Then I have to wear the same clothes the entire story. Then after that I won’t be able to make the cool choices I want or other cool decisions due to not enough gems or run out. Sorry but the game is decent but a rip off.
Used to love the game so much, but it’s going sooooo far downhill
please listen to the opinions of your demographic!!!! so many people are starting to stop playing!!!! we all comment and do surveys and it feels like you always deliver the opposite of what we asked for. last season was on the track to being a good season and getting back to love islands original quality. this season is rough. who okayed these character designs? who decided on the amount of gems for choices and for customization. speaking of customization it was literally horrible for this season? like worse than it’s ever been? the skinny body type is so unrealistic she looks sick. I just think you guys could’ve put more care and thought into the game. i’m happy we didn’t have to wait a year for a new one but i’d honestly rather wait a year than get this questionable quality. I am someone who always spends gems on this game as I have the income to do so but it’s very disheartening and makes me not want to support you guys and spend money on gems when you aren’t even improving gameplay and designs with that money or listening to your users. please do better than this, it feels like y’all are not trying.
I hope I don’t get any judgment for this. I mentally was not in the best space when I download it this game in, so I just spent so much money on this game. Excited to play with the options and jump in to the seasons and stories using what this app had to offer.I put myself in a bit of debt (by not being responsible and checking my funds) my game is now glitching and it will not let me complete the series I have over 120 gems and three tickets. Every time I click the app the music glitches and boots me out. I can’t be disappointed in anyone but myself, but I really hope that this brings awareness that these games are not worth it. One of the seasons I was on every single character was being very rude and I understand that it’s just a mobile game, but this is not a cheap one the gems do not load fast enough you don’t get tickets fast enough and back to reality is going to work to reap the benefits of putting my money on this game and I probably won’t get to see the rest of those gems, to be clear I’ve spent over $100 on this game I’m honestly just gutted about the whole scenario and I hope that there’s something that can be fixed.
I love this game so so much and I am addicted to it. I love how they give you the choice of wether you want to date or not a certain someone! I also love that they have multiple seasons so that if you get bored of one you can go to the next! BUT there is one issue. Diamonds. I have spent 20$ just today and I am already out of diamonds. It is just so expensive and you have to pay like 17 diamonds for alsmost every choice or more if you want a good story. I wish things cost less diamonds. I would still pay the same amounts in $ for diamonds because I think the price is reasonable but the diamonds are gone too fast. Everything cost either 10, 17 or 22 or 29 diamonds and it is so much. Every time it’s diamond it’s always like kiss them for 17 diamonds or push them away and reject them for 0 diamonds. Obviously kissing them is a better choice but if you don’t have enough diamonds and you have to reject them or pay $10 or more (depending on how much you want) to get diamonds.
It’s ridiculous how the reviews were erased since the start of the new season, ‘Ex in The Villa’ thinking that players would instantly love this season, it doesn’t, if anything season five is the worst of all seasons. We barely have any choice on the matter of what our MC is thinking, her goal, & who she is as a person. In real life any normal person would leave the villa, so far the MC have been played by majority of the guys inside the villa & by her so called “friends” who are all nosy in her business with her ex. This honestly feels like our ex’s story rather than OUR story. What made Love Island the game, was picking our secrets, having reactions on what’s going on, etc. That’s all been taken away in this season & it’s very underwhelming. At least in season four, we had choices & had our own backstory rather made up by us by this developer & an ex that can be triggering for so many players own experience. Do better FuseBox or stop entirely of this madness as your consumers are blatantly tired of this. I’ll say things would get better, but after the mess of a so called Love Island S4, I seriously doubt it would get better but we can only have to wait & see.
Best interactive story game on the whole App Store!
All the interactive stories on the App Store need to look at this game to learn what a real A+ looks like- this is it! My all time favorite season was season two with lottie and I hope they can bring it back someday and the art was phenomenal. But I’m currently on the twin season and I absolutely enjoy it 💜 just what the doctor ordered for this lonely single girl 😉 it’s just a nice way to live vicariously and have a bit of one on one time with some characters. Sounds a bit odd maybe but well all the same I enjoy it I have to say, I will not play any other interactive story game on the whole App Store, because they are trash! I think the stories are too sexualized I know this is but it’s based on love island the reality show and it doesn’t have any male bravado or degrading female stuff trash and garbage. Like you can actually have some real conversations. Other interactive story apps take note-you need some serious tips!!! I can’t stand the overly “romanticized” and degrading stuff on the other apps, plus what ever happened to having the choice to not kiss or anything?!!! This app lets you have that choice, plus as I said there aren’t cringe convos over the top fakey romance, and I like that it gives the option to date someone of the same sex if you want. Anyways sorry for the details but 10/10 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
I’ve been playing this game since the first season so I’ve had the pleasure of watching it evolve, watching the writing get better, the graphics get better. I’ve long preferred this game over games like Episode or Choices for one, albeit small, reason; there was no pressure to make premium choices. The other characters didn’t guilt you into spending money on time alone with them, or for picking a standard outfit, like they do in Episode. But that seems to have gone away this season and frankly I’ve found myself disappointed. It was the one thing that made this game stand out. It didn’t feel like a pay-to-win game but now… Also just a cheeky heads up, I’m all for lesbian rights and I absolutely applaud the consistent diversity throughout the seasons, but it’s okay to show MLM relationships too!! Have two of the male islanders pair off, provide an option for the MC to be male or gender non-conforming! There’s an entire demographic you’re missing out on here lol
I love the show so I gave the game a try after seeing the ads for it. I play for a while then delete but always find myself coming back. Not too many ads. Easier to get diamonds now. Only thing is those things that use diamonds feel so make or break for your gameplay. Like they make you feel guilty or lame if you don’t use them but it takes a while to build them back up. It would be cool if maybe once a week they give you. 30 or more diamonds just to keep your gameplay more interesting. Stories are fun and love the diversity of characters. One of the characters is even exactly like my husband so far. Would like maybe more customization options for our avatar? Graphics are great too. Just an overall fun game.
What happened? This game used to be my main source of entertainment. I used to be so excited to play every week, and now I find myself staring the app, and then stopping it. Because why does it matter? There is no story line, no character development whatsoever, no actual choice given. I feel like I’m reading a terribly written book and trying to make it to the end in hopes it will get better! I DONT WANT ALFIE. IM NOT A LESBIAN. I DONT WANT SURESH. Where is the romance that I WANT??!? Why am I being forced to choose between two emotionally manipulative men and one extremely offending women who doesn’t get that I am into men and not women? Nothing towards her, she’s ok I guess, but I am a straight women and feeling forced to make a decision I don’t want to make feels wrong. “NO” does not exist in this season, and it’s extremely claustrophobic and overbearing. Just a warning to any who want to try and play season 5, be prepared to literally not make a single choice that matters, be forced to be with three different people who you have rejected numerous times, and experience having a voice that literally does not matter. ENJOY!!!!
I’m originally player of the love island villa game up to its initial release 3 years ago and I’m am utterly disappointed and upset. The first 3 seasons had so much depth in both characters and storytelling and even allowed the mc to have a choice in direction the story was going to go. Elements I think made up the game and gave it its lovable feel along with the 2D art style. Season 2 & 3 also made it that much enjoyable with more customization options and friendships. To currently where the game feels like a cash grab and a slap in the face. As original players who don’t care for the newer seasons can no longer even access the first 3 seasons and go back and replay them. Which for some players myself included put gems and time into. As well as the fact that the games newer seasons are rushed, lack depth, and any direction especially from the mc point of it being a character-arc driven game. I am so upset and am utterly amazed at the fuseboxes team ability to destroy a once loved game. Do better! Not every game has to constantly change with “newer” markets or be an absolute cash grab.
I want to start off by saying that I love this game! I am a big fan of the Love Island show. I have watched all of the seasons from any country can find. I love the different scenarios in the game like how you can be a bombshell or a casa amor girl. with that being said, the reason why I gave the game a four star review and out of five is because of how desperately they try to push buying diamonds down your throat. Every little thing cost diamonds and it is never anything under 10 diamonds. If you want to know about any little conversation, it’s going to be 10 diamonds. I think that some things should just be given to you instead of being expected to spend your real money on fake diamonds for a game. I do understand they’re trying to make some money off of this app, but it is absolutely ridiculous how many times they ask you to pay diamonds for a simple conversation. but besides that, the game is great!
I loved season one and two of love island. But Season 5 IS REALLY BAD! as I play as the main character I am always truthful and faithful yet everyone I get with cheats on me people lie and bully you and you can’t defend yourself everything is expensive and cause a ridiculous amount of gyms in this season and the storyline is just pathetic everyone tries to get with you but no one chooses you who you truly want like Finn. I can’t believe Nicholas I thought he was a good guy and then he wanted me to go along and be sneaky to stay in the game and they betrayed you and lied and manipulated making it seem like it was your idea the storyline is just horrible all around you guys have failed going forward you guys need to do way better. The last thing is you have no way of earning gems at least in all the four seasons of love island you earned gems after completing each chapter and you have to pay for everything for the 5th season 🙄🤦🏽♀️
I was curious when I saw the ads for it online and decided to give the game a shot, I’ve tried others like it before like episode and MeChat so I’m not unfamiliar with the style of game. It started me off and immediately assumed I was a woman and didn’t let me change, which was disappointing as a guy to say the least. I ended up making the most masculine chick I could and starting it just to see how it goes and it bared me only to the straight options, which also sucked since I found myself more attracted to the female characters than the male ones even though I tend to like men more. Anyways, I left that story and tried a few others, none let me pick a male body type so in the end I was pretty disappointed, even games like episode give you a bit more freedom on gender and preferences in certain stories. I can see how a woman would like it, the writing isn’t bad at all, but it’s definitely not made for men or people looking for a lot of options.
the mc for season 5 was so freaking hideous i had to rate the game 1 star😐 i’m so serious when i say the art for the characters has gotten so bad ever since the first game (the best season being s2 ofc🙄 lol) the anatomy is inaccurate for one but even if that were a style choice, it looks just really really bad😐 it’s even worse that it’s the mc who looks the worst out of everyone. but s5 took the ugly to another level bc the artist couldn’t even get the black skin tones right in the other characters. like why are they so desaturated they literally look gray. everything about the second app is just worse than the first app, like they put no care into it. no casa amor, no dialogue that feels specific to your choices, no inside jokes or running gags, one dimensional characters. i only played most of s4 bc i rly liked bruno. that was until the very end when it seemed like he lost his personality and was just “mc’s partner” i just didnt feel like finishing it. i’m mostly mad that the mc got UGLIER like i really didn’t think it was doable i’m so upset😭😭😭😭😭 the art used to be my favorite part of the game in s1 and s2💔😔
Waited for this app to redeem itself after season 2 but it’s not happening
I’m sorry, idk what goes into making an app. I know it must be hard work, but this update and new version is horrible. The graphics and gameplay from Season 2 of Love Island ( which they remained Love Villa 🤨 ) were amazing, the story was entertaining and kept you wanting more. I actually didn’t mind making purchases with that season. Everything else after that, was just bad. And this, just took my disappointment to another level. It’s lacking; im usually excited to design my character but not this time; no matter what I do she’s just unappealing to me. The gameplay so far and it’s layout are just as disappointing. I heard they fired their old staff; that was a mistake. If you want a better game to play, Netflix has released a new game for it’s subscribers called Too Hot To Handle ( im guessing they must of hired the staff you fired ? ) Because that game has what this one has lost. Very disappointed because I’ve waited so long for this game to redeem itself, but it’s just not happening. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
Ex in the Villa is the worst season yet. I’m sorry, but as someone who has been actually cheated on and gave several second chances to that person. I refuse to ever waste my time on that again. But no you don’t get that option the entire time you are still pinning for them even when you don’t want to be. There is still a tone of you wanting them back. It’s stupid. Plus you have two choices this season Alfie or your ex. I don’t care for either option. All the male personalities are players, none actually genuine. The ex story doesn’t make sense as you dated for a year and than he goes on about all the Christmas’s spent together the most it could be was 2. Not only that but technically he cheated on the main character for MONTHS, before sleeping with that person. But they act like it’s not a big a deal and everyone does it/ it’s normal to flirt with another person and hide it while in a serious relationship. I’m sorry, but this season is ridiculous. Take me back so season 2 when there was actual story and decent characters.
I think the game is fun I've played for a whileee pretty much since it came out. Getting gems is difficult as you could really only watch ads for a gem each. With that there's also a time limit for how long you have to wait to watch more ads. The only other way is by achievements and some require you to buy a certain amount of in game items in order to earn the achievement..do you see where it becomes evidently cash grabby? Even when you getthe achievement the reward is like 3 gems. I think this game needs a better gem system because although they did make a lot of items cheaper they made practically all accessories for your character buyables. With a system this poor they could at least let us reuse the items we bought in previous seasons of the game. I wouldn't say it's poor design or not thought out. I would honestly say it's designed like this on purpose to push players to purchasing diamonds for their ridiculous prices.
Buckle up this one is gonna be a bit long: So I’ve played it very season thus far from both apps. I’ve got to give credit where it is due. Season 6 has massive potential to be the season that revived the hardcore fan base. The newest season feels like it isn’t just drama being thrown around, you’re not forced into sexual actions with anyone (yes this happened season 5), you’re not being verbally abused and mistreated (yes this happened season 4), and it seems like your choices may have more of the impact than in the past two seasons. I could never recommend anyone play Ex in the Villa (Season 5) or Bombshell (Season 4) for any other reason than to roast the heck out of them. Not even mentioning how lackluster the characters looks. A few of them had gray washed skin and it was unpleasant. If you’ve played the older app, want a decent dating reality tv game, or just want to graft with cute singles; then, I fully recommend season 6. But for the love of god do not spend money. Prices have been jacked up and the amount of free gems you can get is so few. Most of the time it’s not game altering and you can find the “gem scenes” online. Happy gaming! And fuse box we are watching and throwing out suggestions online. I just hope y’all listen before people give up on the last season
Huge fan of the show, playing the game I’m pretty satisfied with a lot of the details. I just wish that it would be a little bit easier to get diamonds. Idk if the quest things are broken but it’s only for Bombshell. Also the cost of diamonds during the interactions are a lot. I spent some diamonds here and there and it’s NOT worth the amount for the interaction. I’d spend on diamonds for the cosmetics but not special interactions. I think it would be awesome if in the challenges, the characters would have costumes change in the specific challenges like it is on the show. I play a lot of these type of games so I think these little tweaks would make it stand out a lot more. I do like this game so far, it would be awesome to see those improvements. I noticed that Bombshell has a lot more interactive and moving facials on the characters. I’m assuming that’s the most recent storyline in the game.
Although I feel biased with having played all of the seasons while they came out, with S2 stealing my heart, I feel as if this new app is slowly getting better! S1-S3 were amazing, and with the introduction of the new app I thought it would be similar, but that proved to be incorrect. S4-S5 were interesting to say the least, in my opinion there wasn’t a lot of interesting stuff happening with the characters and well they weren’t as well developed and attractive like the other characters from the previous seasons, but with the newest S6, I’m feeling as if It’s improving, I’m really enjoying the new season with how long the episodes are, how the diamond options are cheaper, I feel like the characters have a better development along with our mc, having more options for that! I’m very hopeful for this new season and the others to come!
I’ll start by saying I LOVE LOVE LOVED the Double Trouble season. The characters were fun and had good personalities. The outfit choices, even the “free” choices were cute, characters overall had dimension and were attractive. I’ve played through that season 6-7x now I love it so much. So I was excited to do the new season and I am DISAPPOINTED. The MC is really not attractive without paying for gems for an upgraded look and all the outfit choices are awful. You get to do next to nothing without extra gems and the characters are mostly annoying. I feel the quality has dropped significantly and I likely won’t finish the season, I’ve tried but I’m just not enjoying it. The storyline itself has so much potential but it’s too much like the first few seasons (Bombshell and Ex in the Villa) in quality, which is not saying good things.
Season 2 was the best season. It had so many different outcomes that made you wanna play over and over. Season 3 was very boring. Then came Bombshell which wasn’t any better. The narrative is so forced. No matter who you chose the dialogue doesn’t change. I was so excited to see what Ex on the Beach had in store and I am utterly disappointed!!! It seems like it’s been written by a child honestly. Then it’s so freaking restricted, you basically have no freedom of choice. They’re forcing you to be with Suresh or Alfie and I really don’t get that or understand it. I’m just so infuriated because I really like Love Island but it has become trash. I also feel like they are pushing the lesbian thing in your face way too much. If I don’t like women, why keep saying she’s looking at me in certain ways. It’s so cringe. Whoever came up with the concept for season 2 need to return because this is not it for me.
So far I’ve really been enjoying the game. From the characters, to the options, the twists, and omg the outfits are adorable! I’ve gotten pretty into it. One big thing for me is diamonds are actually pretty adorable in this. I spent $20 for 300 diamonds and it allowed me to fully set up my character how I want, and I’ve gone quite far choice wise. The diamond choices aren’t very often, and they aren’t that expensive. Overall pretty easy to manage them. 10/10 to me. Granted, it’s always best to try it out and get your own opinion. If you’ve ever played choices, or episodes then I’d highly recommend. This all being said I hope you’re all having a wonderful day, and remember “What happens in the Villa, stays in the Villa!” (Or maybe it doesn’t ;) )
I have this season an honest try. I really, REALLY did. When everybody in social media was saying strictly negative things, I thought to myself “give them a chance to develop the story. Maybe it will get better.” Now we’re almost done with the season, and it didn’t get better. It got so much worse. After these most recent episodes, I literally felt sad. I used to love this game so much. I replayed season one and two over and over and over again. I always bought gems and tickets to get the most of the story. And now it’s just ruined. I was rooting for a redemption story with the ex in the villa. There isn’t one. I was rooting for a friends to lovers path with Finn. There is starting to be one but I’m genuinely concerned they’ll ruin that too. There is no friendship story line like there used to be. I honestly feel like the MC can’t trust anybody and that’s not what love island used to be. Please fusebox. Nobody lives for the abuse and bullying that is this season. Do better because otherwise this game is over.
The game is slowly improving. This latest season has nice art and design but season six is my personal favorite. My main issue is the high cost of clothing and options. They should also give us more options for hair. Some of the gameplay options are 29 gems!!!! I understand 10-15 but 17+ is absurd. The clothes are usually 18-22 and are just not cute enough to pay that much. It would be much better if they returned to giving gems every time an episode is completed. They should have more ads available to watch for gems instead of just three for four gems every 5-6 hours. It also takes a long time to wait for tickets to reload and it makes me lose motivation to play. I hope they make it 3-4 tickets per two hours instead of just two. The writing so far for this season is pretty strong and I really enjoy some characters, especially Alex. I hope that they continue to improve considering some of the past writing was… questionable and lazy. In short: -good to see the writing improve, hope it stays that way -more clothing and hair options -lower gem costs for some choices and especially clothes -gems awarded after each episode -more ads available for gems -tickets reload faster or more
Litg used to feel like a game where you were free to choose who to be with and what to say. Characters reacted and it felt dynamic. Every week I’d be excited to play the new episodes and would buy gems because of how much I loved it. S3 started to go downhill but wasn’t that bad. S4 began the trend of making your character unwanted and unable to choose who you were with in earnest. You got funneled along a path with few options for half the season. Plus, conversations mattered less and less. Now in S5 there’s pretty much no choice and every word and character is toxic and frustrating. Want to choose who you’re with? You can’t. Your character said something? No, she didn’t. Nothing you say or do matters. Personality? Character background? Non-existent. Games are supposed to be fun. This game actually anger inducing. Also, if I wanted a linear story with no choices- I’d read a book. Uninstalling this because I just can’t keep hoping for better at this point.
