Castaway Paradise Review

ESRB Rating EVERYONE for Castaway Paradise

Posted: 12 months ago, last updated 2 weeks ago.

Author: @GeekDadGamer and Jo Robertson.

Overview

This game places you on your own tropical island. Make the place your own with decorations and furniture, dress up, collect bugs, fish, grow crops and help your new neighbours. It's an open-world game that offers an Animal Crossing style experience on non-Nintendo platforms that don't have that game.

Time passes on the island just like real life. The game moves through Summer sun, red leaves in Autumn, Christmas decorating fun in the Winter snow, Easter Egg hunts in Spring. New events are added and play evolves over the years.
