    The game has a solid sandbox idea and it works perfectly well in the holiday island setting.
    The amount of content is very good although it is still in development. I am very looking forward to the new content (girls / scenes) that will be added.
    I did not encounter any bugs (after ~5 hours played).
    Keep up the good work.

    Do not see the appeal of this game at all after giving it a few hours of my time. I also came to see how grindy the game is and over-the-top some of the girls are. Their personalities mostly revolve around them either having big boobs or wishing they had big boobs.

    The sandbox is unattractive and a detriment to the game. The lack of story and a self-insert MC make this game flop on its face as all it has to offer are mediocre lewd scenes and girls. Recommend avoiding this with a ten-foot pole if you respect your own time.

    This is the type of game that makes you hate sandbox mechanics: Unbearable grind, clicks, clicks, and more clicks over the most insignificant stuff. I don't know but if you need a manual to get trough the game and cheats to make the experience more "bearable" maybe something is not right.

    Tons of potential. But.. all the girls are the same.. Same lines. Same motions. Minor tweaks to talk about if they are short, or have big boobs. Thats it.
    Honestly the grind was really boring. Due to the above issue.. your stuck holding down the control key in hopes new dialog comes up.. but.. it doesn't.

    The renders are.. ok. If your a fan of fake boobs this is your paradise. There isn't a real looking anything on this island.

    I like this game quite a bit. I'm a fan of most of the LI's,and there is a ton of activities to do. The built in companion mod is a life saver as well,and more games should implement this. The writing is good,with no "Engrish" moments.

    My one negative would be that there is still a few renders here,and there that are of markedly lower quality,and it really breaks immersion. This may be an android only issue though.
    There is also some lesbian action without the MC,some players may consider this NTR

    I give this 4 stars,and would enthusiastically recommend to any dev out there,that wants to learn how to build a quality sandbox game.
    I'd also recommend this to most players,even if they're not a fan of sandbox.

    A nice game, I have 999 days on the island and it's still fun, with Amy, Brenda, Eva Alice and so on. Animations are sometimes very jerky with Brenda
    Looking forward to the next update good job Darkhound

    i don't want to hate this game, the renders are mostly great, the chicks are all hot. the setting is not terrible. the dialogue is cringe but it's easy to ignore.
    however, this is the worst game on f95 when it comes to not respecting players time.
    the grind is beyond unreasonable, and even if you try to use the dev-made cheat tool, you still have to grind through the game, waiting for certain days so you can progress a girl.
    you can also try to download a save file, just to realize that most scenes dont even appear with text on the scene replay... so what's the point?

    I really like Holiday Island. I love almost all the girls on the island, except for the tall muscular one: Ivy, sorry guys but I'm just not into that. I think Darkhound1 is doing a excellent job with constant adding new locations, girls and events with the girls. There's never a dull moment in the game!

    But there is one thing that bothers me quite a bit.
    Darkhound1 really likes teasing, does he? I think almost 80% of the scenes with the girls ends with teasing instead of sex.
    I've been playing the game for quite a while now and I think I'm about halfway through. Some girls more then the others.

    So I've been on the island for a long time now and have been spending time with some of the girls for quite some time. I've had sex with them several times, and they send me nude pictures of them self all the time. But I still get scenes from those girls that they only tease me. Or if I ask for more, they get angry. Why?
    There are so many scenes that end where I think why? I would do that so much different!
    Well, I don't think that's to surprising. There are probably many of you who have that too. I have it with so many other games as well!

    But let me give you some examples.
    We're going into spoiler territory here, so if you haven't played the game yet, you might want to stop reading here!!

    You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

    So all I'm actually saying is, maybe a little less teasing and a little more sexy time? ...pretty please..

    One of the worst games I have played so far on this site.

    You'll find yourself grinding for HOURS before seeing your first little scene which might be a blowjob with 4 fps. The girls all do really look hot, but they have zero personality. You'll do the same thing everyday: Hug them, kiss them, talk about various topics without any actual dialogue, these "conversations" are usually 1-2 sentences long, and all girls have the same replies.

    So you're just annoyed clicking through the same texts every day, trying to be as fast a possible to get it done, but you need to repeat that so often, that this is what you'll be mainly doing.

    Quests often won't get finished, events that are supposed to trigger because you fulfill the requirements won't get triggered, and there is no story. You have to repeat all the tedious tasks for every single girl, so you can get many different values slowly up from 0 to 100.

    This isn't really a "game", nor is there much porn in it. It's a clicking simulator that throws a little cheaply animated scene at you every 2-3 hours.

    I'm really like these kind of games, that let me create my own route. I think the models of the girls are really unique; and the progression of the game it's not difficult but it's not easy, neither.

    Holiday Island (v 0.4.0.0) has strong good things and bad things. Starting with a story that's completely uninteresting and full of characters who are just as uninteresting as the story itself. Then the gameplay is... great and horrible. It requires a lot of trying things to get different scenes, relying on luck for some to trigger, waiting and farming, but also can be fun to hunt for scenes and see how to get them and they all provide quick sexual content in increasing levels. I would certainly recommend playing with the cheat mod, it takes away the grind and makes things far easier to do like changing girl's clothes or moving them to the locations you need them. And there certainly is a lot of content, of increasing quality as you advance through the game.

    Render quality is pretty decent as well, and I particularly like the girls as they seem to have been done or modified for this game in particular, so they don't feel as overused as the girls in other games. Sound is a bit meh, probably would be better without it, and animations are a bit weak especially in earlier content, and though there are some improvements in both they are still subpar compared to other games.

    So, all in all, halfway through. I'll keep on playing a bit until I really decide where it lands.

    My favorite game of all time! The women are all so incredibly gorgeous, sexy, beautiful...shall I go on? And the art and animation is the best I've ever seen in an AV of this style! Personal favorites are Yvette, Amy, Miriam, Mercedes, Yumiko...aw, hell, they're ALL great!!

    Very bad, boring grindfest.

    The story is okay in the beginning but all the girls are so shallow and just feal like copies of each other with a different body.

    The gameplay is awful and repetitive.

    The moans are very awful.

    The sex scenes have pretty boring animations.

    I don´t think it´s worth playing this it´s just grind and nothing more didn´t really like it, but I liked most models and clothes atleast.

    Perhaps one of my top 5 when it comes to games with diverse and stunningly beautiful girls. Also, the sandbox management is nicely done as well. A little bit more of polishing and this migh reach my top 3 in no time. I am looking forward to how this game ages.

    One of the best games I played so far with free roaming and progressing through the girls. Sometimes it felt a bit too grindy but didnt hinder the enjoyment. Great girls and possibilities.

    The quest journal could have been done better, easier to access, more present and easier to read.

    Story:

    Not real deep, just a lottery Winner and the proze is an island with a bunch of pretty boobed girls and you have the only dick.
    But the ladies are bitchy, just like in real life^^


    Renders: No WOW-Effect but pretty well done.


    Playability: Hello Grind! And even more importand: It´s not a sex-game, even if there some scenes.

    Animations: Yeah, and not bad at all.

    Amount of content: Massive. Just like the boobs most of the girls have.

    All in All a very good sandbox game, good UI and if you like grinding thats for you!

    Updates are rare.

    One of if not the best games on this site imo. Not only is there a large variety of girls, all of which are unique in terms of body and personality, but each girl has an impressive amount of events. Definitely a must try for those into sandboxes or harems.

    This game has a special place in my heart. I first played this game back in 2018 and was instantly hooked. A perfect mix of comedy, drama and sex. The models are very well made and the scenes are very erotic. The dev crafted the bodies of the women perfectly ( except the muscular one). The hair on the models is not well made, i know im nitpicking on a porn game but what can i say i like perfection. Some faces could be done better aswell like for joy shes got the face of a crack whore. My favourite is the blonde bombshell jessica.

    The game play is pretty simple, if youre like me and like to skip all the dialog and story, you still wont have any trouble progressing the story. Alot of cheat options available aswell.

    This game is OG and you have to try it, its a fun experience 8/10. It has alot of content now too.

    This has to be one of the best games on the site. I can't help but compare other games to this one, and most often they are found wanting. A hallmark of lewd sandbox development, and what's even better is that the dev is active in the community. One suggestion that I hope gets implemented: I'd love if we could somehow change around which conversation topics the various girls like/dislike - as much as randomization makes each game unique, I think making it possible for some adjustments from the player would make this game even better.
