Annoying to say the least!!!

I started playing this game back when I had the iPhone 4s and loved it; never had a problem in all the years I've been playing. Then I upgraded to the iPhone 6s and now I can't collect coins feed animals etc. Definitely not optimized for the 6s!!!!
NOT PLAYING?! ?

Screen freezes up a lot. Plz make it easier to reach animals. Make screen not blurry. And most of all, make the wolves and horses look less dorky. Oh, plz add zodiac wolves if you don't have them. Overall great game??

I played this game to the end. Yes it take a long time for some things to happen, but I stuck with it (without spending money) and was able to fill all but 1 open space, got all animals up to maximum strength, 4 animals to each house. As you stick with the game, explore islands to get crystals, you can complete to the end.
I LOVE IT

When I got this game I was so excited. When I stared it it didn't make sense so I read the direction and even the direction sounded fun

12/19/15 Update: Well, it looks like that app may have run its course. I haven't gotten new area animals in over 6 months even though there are others out there based on the forum & other websites. I have to conclude in order to move past where I am, I have to complete one or both of the two that have been sitting for at least that amount of time. I do not think I should be forced / compelled to spend gems to move on. Previously after a certain amount of time passed, the islands disappeared (you snooze, you lose) & a new quest set would start. Most recently & the primary reasons I'm posting, there hasn't been an update in quite some time. Plus there has been a weekly weekend event that, without warning or explanation other than 'we're trying to figure out a loophole' was terminated 6 weeks ago. It doesn't take that long to determine what the issue is. The daily scratches are worse than they were when I updated a year ago. Here's the way they're going to breakdown: no weekend event; you're going to get coins & leaves, weekend event; you're going to get a bunch of food, a mix of leaves, coins, keys, but mostly food. At this point if you aren't playing, I would not recommend it. 11/1/14 Update: Since posting this review I've gotten no gems through the daily wheel spin, none through the daily scratch off and only a few gold treasure chests (3?) have netted gems on islands. Add to that today one of the hidden chests found while clearing islands which have always given one gem gave a bag of flour. Flour!! A little disclosure: I do buy into apps if I like them. Usually it's only once, much like if you buy a Wii or Xbox game. I strongly believe apps & devs deserve support. One of the daily scratch events for a special animal was botched & even though it had me in the top 10, they took that prize away & gave everyone a small conciliation prize. Given the fact that 375 gems were spent on another event to earn an extra 40 swipes AND the issue was their error, they should have given everyone the animal like they have done in the past. We are on the 2nd event since then & even with swipes hoarded, unless you buy in getting a special animal isn't possible. I'll continue to play once or twice a day, but for all intents & purposes this app is being shelved in spite of buying in 3 times. I refuse to pay more for an app than I would for an exceptionally well put together X-Box or Wii game. --------------- Original Review: Mixed Thoughts That said, in the case of this app, they should have made it a buy-in app from the get go. I power play everything, don't have to have every item or animal that's released & don't feel any pressure to move fast. It happens when it happens. Even with my laid back attitude with the competitive aspect of the game yet the aggressive manner in actual play (collecting coins, making food, clearing islands, completing puzzles ad nauseous, etc) I still have a difficult time 'earning' gems. The game is clearly, almost humorously, stacked. If the daily wheel has an odd item that day (spade, food, etc) that's what you'll be getting that day. The quests where you have to collect puzzle pieces in the daily scratch off are all but impossible to win. Speaking of the daily scratch off, when it's an average day, you're most likely going to get coins or leaves, but if it's one of the map collection events, you're going to be collections a lot of food. If you are not an aggressive player & don't have to have everything that comes out, you don't have to be the first or best at whatever, if you can play passively in that aspect, this game is pretty cool. There are worse apps. I wish they would be straight forward about the 'give always' & contests. It isn't horrible. It isn't great. I'm still playing it for now. :)
