Description

* Pocket Gamer GOLD AWARD * "New Games We Love", Apple * "Best New Apps for October", Vodafone UK * #1 Hot Game, TouchArcade, Sep 2016 * "The 30 Best iPad Games of 2016", Stromstock * * * * * * * * * * * * Vulture Island is a platform adventure with a distinct focus on exploration to tickle your curiosity. Rather than stacking up high scores and running towards the end of each level, you get to roam freely in an open world and explore caves, swamps, temples, pirate ships and more. You collect objects along your way, solve puzzles and talk to NPCs, all while being wrapped inside the platform gameplay mechanism we all have to come to love since the golden era of 8-bit computers and consoles. THE PLOT Benjamin has built a spectacular flying machine to take him and his friends around the world. During one of the first flight sessions something goes wrong. The youngsters have no choice but to parachute themselves to safety. After an exhausting swim Alex, Paul and Stella end up on a distant island. Barehanded and with no trace of Benjamin. GAME FEATURES * Non-linear gameplay: Explore the island freely * Non-destructive gameplay: When failing, you're simply thrown back to the overview map instead of losing all progress * Interact with characters, trade tools and help each other * Collect items to your inventory * Solve puzzles * Battle enemies & bosses Supports MFi Controllers and ION Arcade Controllers.

    At first I was reluctant to buy the game but I was drawn to the graphics because of the similar super Mario world art direction. But What i really like about the game is the hunt for items which Require a little bit of strategy but all together its fun, not too long and enjoyable.
  • Fun Adventurous Game šŸ˜ƒ

    It was very puzzling at first, but once I got the hang of it, I real enjoyed the game. The only negative thing was that it didnā€™t need to be 2.99
  • If you like hard, old school platformers

    I enjoyed ā€œTraps nā€™ Gemstonesā€ but this one is too hard and unforgiving for me. Itā€™s classic Mario-like platformer including the tedious go back to start when you die. Itā€™s just too tedious to be fun. I wish there was an easy mode.

    I think that three dollars is too much to pay for a game that might last you one afternoon. The instructions arenā€™t clear at all, and the layout is kind of funky. I have loved nearly all of the other donut games, but this one has disappointed me.

    Amazing game! Donut Games has a huge variety of games, and I really liked the path they took starting with Traps n' Gemstones. This is like a RPG but at the same time, it isn't. You can explore any level at any time, but you'll find yourself going back and forth nonstop until you find the right item. There are a few frustrating areas, and they don't make it clear that collectibles aren't transferred over between characters - almost all of the game until the end is three separate adventures, one for each character. I also found myself finishing the game too early and the ending was a little bit anticlimactic. However, it's not enough to take away any stars, it's really rewarding to solve a puzzle or get past a tricky area! Bosses aren't plentiful, but the 2-3 that do exist are lots of fun. While I wouldn't say that this tops Traps 'n Gemstones, I do highly recommend this game if you liked that one. Very unique! Make more like this!

    Awful awful game. This game is the worst. It looks cool but it's not. I got bored after five minutes of playing. I expected more of this game considering it was like $3.99. PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IT IS BAAAAAAAAAD!!!!!

    I've been an avid fan of DG for years, but this game is boring and not worth the high price tag.
  • Tons of fun

    This is an excellent little adventure game. The items used usually make sense although the game could really use a bit of clarity near the beginning that each characters quest is basically self contained. That through me off for a bit at the start. Highly recommended. Love it.

    A great game. Cute graphics, difficult but fair puzzles, and decent length (about 2-4 hours). A bit challenging for casuals but perfect for those who love meteoidvanias/trading items to get other items.
  • Not too good...
