Castaway Paradise soft-launches on Android in Australia, going worldwide later this year
Like Harvest Moon or Animal Crossing?
Castaway Paradise has been soft-launched in Australia for Android. It will be launched worldwide later this year.
It's best described as a mix of Animal Crossing and Harvest Moon. The idea is to make yourself at home on a tropical island populated by animal villagers.
You can catch bugs, go fishing, grow trees and flowers, and talk to your odd neighbours. There are also thousands of items to customise your character and their home with.
There are also quests to go on given to you by other villagers. Plus, special holiday events are held all year round - on Halloween the island will be spooky, on Christmas it'll snow.
We gave Castaway Paradise a Silver Award in our review of the iOS version. We said that it "definitely calls to mind a certain Nintendo property, but it's a surprisingly good fit for mobile."
You can download Castaway Paradise for free on Google Play.
