I am still on the first island. How many islands are there?

I am in Vol. 3 and really need a 4th Island. Help!

4th island is not available, yet, and developers do not know when it will be. So until then, we all have to replace low flower decoration with high-flower decoration to continue game progression. The more high-flower decoration you buy, the further you can progress.

I don't know if I will continue at that point. It sounds tedious looking for higher flower decorations. There just aren't that many of them. Currently, I am working on Sunflower Island and have plans for Laurel. I hope by the time that I am done with that there will be a 4th island!

The 4th island is called Willow Island and it was released the last week of July 2020, to those who have already fully opened the first 3 islands.

Thanks for this - have only three areas to open on Laurel Island and was wondering whether Willow was released yet!!

There is a 4th island. I just finished it.

I’m nearly finished Willow Island

5th island is going to be released early 2021

Yay....filled up and ready for new

I am already waiting for the 5th island about 4 months now. Isn't it possible to just make 3 more islands while they are making it?

It takes time and coordination. Devs are constantly working on new chapter every week and new features, like Detectives League, and fixing glitches in the various game platforms. In the past, it's been ~6 months between island releases. Patience is the name of the game.

I find it rewarding when I find a way to use a building that doesn't "fit" as something else, for example, I used the "stable" as an "extension" to the Conservatory and disguised the horses with landscaping. And I hide a lot of seasonal sets that don't fit behind other things if I can't make them look like something that would fit the "design."

A few days ago the icon that allows you to go to the other two islands disappeared from the screen. Does anyone else have that problem? How can it be restored?

Shouldn't have disappeared. If it still has not returned, contact customer support through the "help" button in the game settings.

4th island was released the last week of July 2020. It is called Willow Island.

When will there be a 5th island. I’m done with my 4th.

Developers have not released a time table, yet.

It’s a a major flaw in the design that the things one has to buy for flowers can’t count when they are in the ship. Wooga says decorate your island but no one Can in any meaningful way. I don’t understand why it was designed this way.

Yes, it was designed that way (not a flaw) so that you must use strategy to play. It is the challenge to balance your island design with moving forward in the game. It can be done, many have achieved a good balance. It also allows the storage ship to be unlimited. If the flowers on the ship counted, there would be no reason to decorate the island at all.

Not necessarily even though this is just a virtual reality game. Why place the Summer House next door to the Estate? It looks silly. Why not place the Firehouse on the middle island where it can easily service the other 2 islands? Why place the Observatory near lit buildings that obstruct a telescope? Individual thinking is allowed ...

Why not have several "Firehouses" made with smaller decor building? We all use our own imagination to decorate our own "Fantasy Island". It doesnt need to make sense to you. It makes the Designing Detective happy. Many of my seasonal set decor are used to make scenes not related to set. You decorate yours and I will decorate mine!! I just need island #5. -GJB scene 1050
