    Anyone still playing this game? I downloaded it a couple weeks ago and I love it!

    Has anyone gotten to the third island yet? I only have a couple more quests on the second island (finish the ruined statue, build a marble pit, stockpile a bunch of marble), etc. But I think I finished all the quests required to get to the third island. The scientist told me I'm ready to go to the next island, but when I click on the island it just keeps telling me that "The road to the Mystery Shore lies through a series of caves on the Marble Fiord."

    I didn't have to finish all the quests on the first island to get to the second island. Anyone know how to get to the third?

    Funny, I have just made an account to have a chat to all of you all and ask a few questions myself. I am level 34 and on the second island just at about the same stage as you, although I haven't got the quest yet to build the ruined statue. I think you will find that you have to complete the stockpile quest first and then you can finally access the third island.

    Has anyone found that they cannot access some buildings on the 1st and 2nd islands? There is a hut just up and right from Stonehenge on the 1st island and I have never had a quest for it, and every time I go to access it she says "it is not the time to access this" or similar. Also there is a enemy hut just a little up and right from where you start from in the 2nd island.

    Do we also know what's happening with the friend codes? Would be nice to see what everyone else's islands look like, presuming that's what you can do.

    Lovely to see someone else is interested in this game as much as me

    Hi Epsi!

    I'll try to finish up that stockpile quest. And I'm also curious to see what they do with friends codes...

    As for the hut up and right from stonehenge, I believe it belonged to the old guy with the bird on his shoulder. I think it was part of a quest where he said the Murlods were bugging him. After that I think it just winds up being decoration. That old guy also has a hut on the second island.

    I don't see the enemy hut on the second island you are referring to. The only thing I can think of is that I dismantled it as part of some quest...

    I unlocked all land parts on the first island and finished all quests. But it didn't indicate any sort of completion so I guess all that left to do is just use it to make lots of money? I'll be sad when I "finish" the game.

    Hi Rothgarr & Epsi....welcome to the TribeZ thread :)

    You both are also on high levels, as I am almost on lvl 22, so still a newbie I am sure I will pick up some great tips from the two of you...

    Ahh, thanks for providing the answer to that dormant hut.
    Wondered about that also....I now have the old man with the parrot....he originally appeared on the roof of my cozy house, then I decided to move it elsewhere and now he just stands on the ground in the same spot without moving?

    Apart from my disappearing plane saga, I am really enjoying this app so far too

    Did it take you both many tries to retrieve the analyzer when exploring the cave?
    I have tried numerous times now and still keep getting another Dino egg?

    Hi Girlpower and Rothgar, thank you

    None of the quest items that I have had to find have taken anymore than 5 attemps, maybe you are just being unlucky :(
    Shame to hear about your problem with the airplane, must be costing a fortune in jewels. And from what I remember I was constantly having to redo the airplane to get the silly items lol

    And thank you Rothgar for the information, I too will be sad when I reach the end of the game, I'm hoping they keep updates happening for it

    GirlPower a lot of those quests took me a number of tries "exploring".

    Ug, I just spent 27 jewels by accident... I was speed tapping collecting income from my houses and shops and I must have clicked "speed up". UG! I was saving those for decorations when I finished the game!

    Hi there, I've been playing the game for a couple of weeks now and I'm really enjoying it! I just got to the third island today. I had to complete just about every quest on the second island before the third one opened up. Took ages to stock pile the cut stone and marble and complete the ruined statue. That was another ruin that took four or five lots of eight hours to rebuild!

    You won't be able to go to the third island until you have build your marble pit because you have to have 700 pieces stored before you can go.

    Hope this helps! :D

    Hey there girlpower! Fancy seeing you here! And so much to say!! (just for a change! He he he!)

    I hope you get a quick response form the devs, it's no fun just twiddling your thumbs waiting! I'm sorry I can't remember how many times you need to search the plane, it's a bit of a dim and distant memory now, and i had dragons to breed, a dress shop to play with......

    Yes, food is very scarce on the second island! You need to build your pig farms ASAP, they will be your main source of food. You don't get another fruit bush until you expand and there are only 5 of them in total.

    Yes, Stonehenge is the columns you can see and it takes along time to rebuild it. Lots of money, time, food and cut stone!

    I really wish we could see each others islands! would love to see the gap where your plane should be......... That's cruel of me, Sorry!!

    I've finally reached the third island today, very pretty! Think it's going to be time consuming as you only get 2 people to start with! Lots and lots of quests as well.

    Just as well, otherwise I would be finishing the game too quickly!

    Good luck with finding the analyzer! Whatever that was! :D. X

    Got it, this is exactly where I am right now (at level 32), trying to build up enough stone and marble to complete the quest and to build the marble pit and the theater. Sounds like I'm a couple days from hitting island three.

    Wow...you are just whipping thru this app! :eek:


    I think to get to the third island....there is another cave in the farthest right hand corner of the second island. I think we have to expand all the way there and explore it.

    I'm at level 23 and have just started the snow island. I'm still determined to finish all the quests on the first island before putting so much effort in the others :rolleyes:

    I'm still working on the last cozy cottage upgrade so I can upgrade the main bldg to level 6 ...so I can build that friggin museum :cool:

    This game is definitely going to teach me patience ;)


    Edit: I just noticed in the farthest right hand corner in area to expand on the second island.....there is another cave. I'm betting we have to explore that cave to get to the third island. :D :D:D

    Oh good, thanks Rothgarr....thought it might be just me again (think missing plane).....

    Oh no, 27 gems by accident has gotta hurt :mad:
    I bet you will only ever accidentally do that once....very easy to do and because the app doesn't ask if you are sure you want to speed something g up, I will add very sneaky on their part really.
    really am sorry this happened, I know how very precious they are

    Latest email from customer support

    Hi game players,

    Well the latest email still isn't specifically addressing my dilemna, except to say the specialists are aware of the problem and they are working on it, to sit tight and wait for an update very soon.

    Problem is, I can't darn wait cause most of my quests lined up are to do with getting supplies from the plane....I can't even build the stone mill cause of an unfinished quest. :(

    I think I have 90% decided I will have to start all over again, now on lvl 22 and got things happening on Island two, huts, pig farm.
    I should have just gone and done it a couple of days ago in hindsight, sorry if I sound like a cracked record, guess I am a bit deflated and just wanted to get it off my chest.....

    I reckon there are plenty of updates they will do, so as long as you guys don't go too fast, I am sure more Islands will open up......

    Haha, I should be right cause by the time I catch up, the update will probably have happened....

    Love hearing where you are all up to.....good work :)

    Hmm, you should be sorry too :p
    Just as well I know you were kidding.

    I got an idea, you can take a screen shot of your Islands and email them to me.
    Too easy.....no point in me sending you mine, so you can gloat at my empty space and anyway I will probably be starting from scratch....just too nervous to hit the delete button :eek:

    I will be taking a wide berth around that plane next time....it bites! :rolleyes:

    That is such a bummer about the plane. Maybe you can ask them for a promo code in the meantime to give you enough crystals to cover the remainder of the plane-related quests?

    I'm nearly ready to sail for the second island, but now the game will not load at all. Has anyone else had this problem -- and what to do?

    This is happening to me too. I can't get back to the Island of the Ancients. I'm stuck on The Marble Fjord. The app just closes. So frustrating. I have a lot invested on that island!

    How stupid am I???

    I was so pleased to get to the third island yesterday, it's very pretty and has several areas to expand, like the first 2.

    I was even more pleased because I had accumulated loads of money from the first 2 islands so was able to do all the expansions straight away!

    Why am I stupid?? Well, there were loads of treasure chests to dig up so I happily went about digging them all up, and there was LOADS of rock, cut stone, marble, lumber, food, HUNDREDS of each, and just as I dug up the last one I realised that I had lost nearly ALL of it! There are 3 warehouses when you first move to that island and I didn't even think about their storage capacity! When you have the full amount of lumber, marble etc and then you dig some up, it just disappears into thin air if you don't have any room left :mad::mad::mad:

    Let this serve as a warning to you all, DON'T DO WHAT I DID! Be more patient and don't dig up the treasure unless you have lots of room in your warehouse :(

    Another tip for 3rd island, build a couple of pig farms straight away as there is only 1 fruit bush on the entire island! There is also lots and lots of clearing to do if you want any room to build!

    Ok, rant over.

    Thanks for the tips, Jambodooley. I also figured out the hard way about disappearing resources from treasure chests.

    Those who are having app issues... have you tried powering down and booting up your iPad? Do you have the latest version installed?
