A calm, creative sandbox where you slowly transform a sandy wilderness into a beautiful tropical town with detailed house customization.

What players say

Players describe it as a relaxing, idle decorating game rather than a management sim, with no real goal beyond filling your island. Many report bugged achievements, and several say the original game is more satisfying.
