Until next time, stay sun-kissed and drama-free!
Love Island: The Game is the ultimate guilty pleasure for fans of the reality TV show. It perfectly captures the drama, 'grafting', and romantic tension of the Villa. What makes this game stand out is the agency it gives you; your choices actually feel like they impact your relationships and how other Islanders perceive you. Whether you want to be the Villa’s sweetheart or a total bombshell, the game supports your playstyle.
With 11 seasons currently available, there is a massive amount of content to play through. The character customization is extensive, allowing you to create a unique Islander with showstopping outfits. The writing is snappy and fits the show's tone perfectly. While the gem-based 'premium choices' can be a bit expensive, the core experience is a fantastic interactive romance novel that keeps you coming back for the next recoupling.
11 drama-filled seasons
Hundreds of outfit options
Diverse range of love interests
Impactful choice-based narrative
Pay attention to your partner's 'type' and personality. Choosing dialogue options that align with their interests will build your connection faster.
Navigate tense recoupling ceremonies where your choices decide who stays in the Villa and who gets dumped.
You typically play as a female Islander, but you have the choice to pursue romantic relationships with both male and female characters.
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.
I want to start by saying that I have been an Advent player since there was only one season (Bombshell) released, and have been playing ever since, always excited and looking forward to new seasons dropping, and I am always grateful that the developers make it so that the players interest and critiques are taken into accountability by always offering surveys! The only thing I would say is that I spend so much money pretty much a couple of times a week purchasing diamonds to be able to experience the “ exclusive” experiences, and I feel that there should be other ways to earn diamonds as opposed to explicitly purchasing them or only having access to watching two videos a day to earn one extra each or just logging in and getting maximum 2 to 4 diamonds, I feel like you should at least be rewarded with one after every episode gameplay to make the goal of collecting them more achievable, because frankly you miss out on a lot of or fun details and experiences when you don’t have the diamonds for it and I get that is supposed to urge players to buy, but it gets repetitive when I’m spending almost $50 every few weeks😬 and I am an adult so I’m in charge of my own finances but if this is a game open to 17 + I wouldn’t think that all teenagers would have access to disposable income🤷🏽♀️
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 have been playing this game for years, and I adore everything about it. Everything from the character designs, storytelling, choices, etc. Over the years the game has gotten a little bit expensive, but that’s to be expected. What isn’t expected is the lack of help from customer support. I spent over $150 playing Summer Nights, and I had no issue with paying that much. However, recent word went around that the game had an issue if you wanted to restart the Summer Nights story to replay it. The issue being you would have to purchase the premium choices again, even if you were signed in and previously purchased them. I contacted customer support and asked if the issue had been resolved, they told me to run the game and I come by an issues they’ll help. Well - they didn’t. They asked to me to send them a screen recording of me purchasing the premium choices, restarting the game, and see if the issue still occurs after purchasing the choice again for the second time. I currently don’t have the funds to spend another $150, but I had the Apple email receipts and screenshots of the game asking to repurchase the choices. Apparently, that wasn’t enough, and they said they could no longer help if I couldn’t repurchase the choices and send over the recordings. It was so frustrating and disappointing, I love replaying the games - what I don’t love is running around with no hopes to solve this issue, even when I initially asked if it had been resolved or not.
I played this game before watching the show and I love the seasonal themes and the storylines. What is the best is that your choices and diamond scenes affect your relationships and how people treat you. It seems like the writing team took what we said about that awful season 5 with the ex and improved on the writing. MC gets better treatment and has the chance to stand up for herself. I also like having more features to customize our MC. What id like to see is more opportunities to earn diamonds like finish an episode and earn a diamond and on the player profile or anniversary of the app, get extra diamonds. The latest season why do we have to pay diamonds on features that were previously free? One last thing —- fix your cache!!!! There are some dialogue that have biases even if MC didn’t pick that option and the worst is replaying a season and not picking certain options but you did in your first play through so instead of having them erased in your 2nd playthrough the characters judge and treat you like you did them when you didn’t!!! This was the issue with the first app and it has not gone away. Another thing to fix I miss is when they had more unique personalities and reactions. Jin and CA Max are very similar. The first half of season 2 is perfection. Also when are we getting back seasons 1-3? Specifically season 2? Can we get those moved into this app?? I have a lot of feedback but mostly because I am dangerously obsessed with playing this game. Love it, enjoy it, care about it! Thank you for the entertainment!
I believe the game still has potential as someone who played since S1 I can tell they don’t put as much time and consideration into the game anymore and that could because they fired writers, Your choices have little no consequences as the season progress, The love interest all have the same dialogue it’s honestly annoying how they don’t have their own personalities no more, The drama is so forced and not even things to be mad over, MC barley has a back bone and when you do have the chance to speak up it’s either gems or options that you don’t even want. The game has been better with art since this last season but there’s really plot or even connections really like the older seasons (Mainly s2), Season 2 was the best season showing how different each character was, Real drama that actually makes you feel like the main character and not a side one, It was longer and didn’t feel rushed at all, You could go on different routes and have different outcomes but now it just seems Fusebox isn’t passionate about this game anymore definitely debating if I want to stick around anymore it’s so hard it feels so boring no long get me at the edge of my seat just anger of not wanting to open the app again and it’s sad because I used to really love this game, I don’t want to spend any money on it just cause of these reasons I’m not getting my moneys worth with this game and I suggest this for anyone else don’t waste your money on it even if you do diamond choices they are also no worth it and does nothing to the plot🤦🏼♀️
I’ve been playing the love island game ever since the first iteration of the app, and have played every single season! It’s such a fun game, especially for someone who is also such a big fan of the show- I’ve seen every season of UK, US, and AUS as well as LI games and all stars. The stories are a lot of fun and the characters are dynamic and diverse, as are the experiences. As far as critiques, my first and main critique is as time has gone on and more “seasons” have come out, less experience/options for choices in the game have been free and just a part of the game and more and more cost diamonds- which there’s no way to get other than a measly amount for limited opportunity ad watching, or to pay for them. It really stinks because the creators have kind of forced you into buying the diamonds to experience anything of note in the game at this point, which as I mentioned before, didn’t used to be quite this bad. The only other thing I’ll say is sometimes there are frustrating plot holes- for example in the newest season you have the option to be interested in/get to know multiple people, but some choices weigh much heavier than others and when you get chosen by one islander, it seems the other that you may have been pursuing completely forgets at all that happened (which I guess could be realistic, but at least an opportunity for a conversation should be had! Haha). All in all great game, just starting to feel a little annoyed that it’s hard to actually play in a worthwhile way without constantly putting more money into it.
I wanted to give season 5 a chance and was optimistic about it at first, but without spoiling too much, we’ve had FAR FEWER choices in love interests than we’ve ever had in this game. It took almost 30 episodes to get out of a couple that we had no control over choosing. I understand writing multiple paths for romance takes time, so I’d be happy to wait longer between seasons if that means I’ll actually be able to choose my partner… which is the actual point of this game. This “Ex in the Villa” season seems like an excuse to forget that simple fact: that this game is about playing the field and having options!! Plus, the ex in question is relentless in his pursuit of the main character, it flies in the face of everything most of us know about the phrase “no means no”. It’s pretty offensive and wrong. I understand that his relentlessness probably also comes down to not wanting to write multiple love interest paths, but again, this just shows the developers prioritized speed over a decent story. It is never ok to tell a character for over 30 episodes that you don’t want to be with them anymore for them to continuously pursue you anyway. I’m so disappointed. I’ve been playing this game since season 2, which took a lot longer to produce but was so much better in overall quality, especially when it came to storylines and love interest options. If these seasons continue to be “themed” for the sake of taking short cuts in writing storyline options, I will 100% save my money and stop playing.
