Funky Bay – Farm & Adventure for Pc

This is a cute game. I love the concept, the characters, the tasks and games, the islands. But it is buggy, even glitchy. The market is full of items that are already sold, making it nearly useless. Many players have complained but there’s no response. The cost of items increasing as you move up levels is ridiculous. An apple tree should cost the same on every level. The in-game chat for neighbors works sporadically and is very limiting. The islands are cute and I love this separate game, but the cost to clear them is high. Again, complaints from everyone but silence from the developers. I’ve paid real money for them in the past, as I want to support the game. It’s at the point that I am not sure that I will give the game any more money until problems are fixed. And finally, the regatta. Fantastic concept, I love it and my neighborhood. But it needs an overhaul. The tasks are too low in points to make a serious run for placing in top 3, and this is after an update. So they made it harder. And there are teams, regularly from outside the United States, that rack up impossible points in the first few minutes of the race. It’s impossible, so something is going on. And again silence from the developers. I love this game but it needs attention, and the developers need to start communicating more than silly polls on their Facebook page.

*EDIT* The problem was not fixed with the new update. The load screen still gets stuck at 22% and says “unable to connect to server.” I have contacted the developers on multiple occasions to either no response, or to be told to access the settings in game (which I can’t do because I get stuck on the load screen.) I’ve contacted them through both Facebook and email with no fix or to be completely ignored. Their customer service is atrocious. I downloaded this game a few days ago and was instantly hooked. It had several things I have been looking for in a game. Several hours after downloading it, I connected the game to Facebook and was immediately booted from the game and upon restarting the game, the load screen was stuck at 22% and would not move. I contacted the this app Community on Facebook messenger and was told to go into the menu and report the bug.. issue is, I CAN’T get into the game to do this! I told them as much and have not gotten any further response. I deleted the app and redownloaded it, which worked but I lost all of my progress. After several hours, again I get booted and when I try to renter the game, it gets stuck on 23% and tells me it cannot connect to the server and to check my internet connection (which is fine, every other app requiring internet works fine.) Please fix this bug! I would love to continue playing and re-review to give 5 stars!

At first I was absolutely in love with this game. Leveling up was easy and it didn’t take a lot of time to make production items. Now it seems like it takes forever to make things because you have to wait an hour or more to make some things just to be able to wait longer to make something else out of what you just waited so long to make. Also, where are all the shovels?? I get lots of saws from gift boxes, but after I leveled up a bit, I stopped getting any shovels in the gift boxes. This makes it impossible to remove the nectar bushes that I need to produce honey, which I now need to make several production items. Now I have to spend gems to buy shovels if I really need the honey, which is becoming more frequent. I would like to see this aspect of the game replaced with the ability to just remove the expended trees and bushes. I already have to pay coins to buy them, I should be able to remove them without wasting the hard-earned gems. If the developers were to change production times and make removing trees and bushes easier, I’d almost definitely give this game 5 stars. As it is, it’s just another farming game that gets impossible to play without dumping tons of money into.

This game was really fun at first, but once you get to level 15, getting upgrade tools or shovels to remove honey bushes is impossible without spending cash. I don’t mind paying occasionally and I do for Hay Day but it’s because Hay Day doesn’t FORCE me to pay to progress in levels, accomplish derby tasks or clear trees from my farm...there are lots of ways to get the tools you need in Hay Day. That is NOT the case for this app.. This game will lose its players eventually if it continues to become an expensive chore. I too, as other players have complained, have lost progress in the regatta because of bugs and I no longer try to play it. The expansion areas with quests were fun but now it takes so much energy to get anywhere that it literally makes me frustrated and annoyed. Big deal, I cleared 4 bushes and a tree but no energy to do any more without making it myself... but wait... I can’t.. my barn is full so I can’t make the products I need to make energy and I can’t expand my barn without spending cash. Again. If a game pisses you off regularly, it’s time to delete it from your device.
