I find the content very shallow, the characters are bland and the grind is not rewarding at all. The drop rate of this game is abysmal, you can mine all day and find no gem and max 20 ores.

The mechanics are clunky, I have to click 20 separate times to full the recycling machine. My character is always getting stuck in invisible obstacles and your tool hits the wrong case half of the time, even though the white square and your mouse is on the right one.

Relationships offer nothing, some of the characters' backstory make no sense and paint the character like an ass. Each NPC has one character trait and they run with it. Raj's whole personality is coffee, Yuri's is being a nurse, Mark's being mad because you exist, etc.

It's sad because clearly, the game has a lot to offer but everything is surface level and not well thought. I come from Stardew Valley, which was developed by only one person, and it was so much more complete on release.

Ah! And the saddest part, no randomizer for your animals'name. Either you give it your own or your chicken is called "Chicken". It's the small things that make a game endearing and Coral Island has nothing that makes me want to do another playthrough.
