How to make a wish list in Island Experiment

PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOR COMPUTER PLAYERS ONLY. THE MOBILE APP DOES NOT HAVE A WAY TO MANAGE WISH LISTS. IF YOU PLAY ON A MOBILE DEVICE, YOU HAVE TWO OPTIONS. ONE, YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE PUFFIN BROWSER TO YOUR DEVICE AND LOAD UP THE GAME THERE AND PLAY JUST LONG ENOUGH TO MANAGE YOUR WISH LIST, THEN SWAP BACK TO THE APP OR TWO, GO TO A COMPUTER AND PLAY THERE LONG ENOUGH TO MANAGE YOUR WISH LIST, THEN SWAP BACK TO THE APP.

How to add and remove items from your wish list


To add items, go to the quest or building that needs the item you want to add. When you click on it, you will get a window that shows all the items you need. If you do not have enough of the item, there will be a green plus next to the picture of the item IF it is a giftable item:




Click that green plus, and a new window will appear. You item will be on your list, if there is room for it. There are 4 slots available for requests. If your item is in one of the slots, simply close the window and move on. DO NOT click the “Ask Friends” button that is seen in this window - doing so will only send requests to NON-playing friends, not to your actual game friends. Once the item is on your list, you can just ask for it in chat, in a group that allows requests, or by sending messages to your friends through FB PMs. (If you ask for the item(s) in chat, please tell people your level and a brief description of your profile picture so people can find you on their friend lists. If asking in a group, tell your level, they will already be able to see your picture.)

What if you open the quest or building and you DO have enough of the item, so you don’t have a green plus? Or you're in the delivery hut, which never has green pluses? Simple, it only requires one more step. First, click the picture of the item:



When you do, you will get another window with a “Find” and an “Ask Friends” button. This particular asking button is OKAY to click, it works just like the green plus, so go ahead and click it. When you do, you will get the wish list window (as shown above) and once again, simply close it.




What if I already have 4 items on my list, and want to add something different, or want to remove an item I no longer need? Simply bring up your list by following either set of instructions above (with any item at all), and when the list pops up, you will notice a red X by each item on the list. Just click the red X next to any item you want to remove, and it will be taken off the list. Then simply close the list window.



There are some items in the game that cannot be gifted, including:  food, coins, gas masks, crab claws, first aid kits, gears, bananas, platinums, mushrooms, liquid flame, energy spheres, energy potions, elixirs of life, chain saws, rebars, cement and a few other things. If there is no green plus, and if clicking on the picture does not bring up an asking button, then that item cannot be requested.


TO ADD GOLD BARS: Click your dragon, then click the UPGRADE button. Then follow the instructions as shown in this document. PLEASE DO NOT EXPECT ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS IN THE GAME TO GIVE YOU ALL YOUR RESOURCES. GIFTS ARE TO HELP EACH OTHER, NOT TO LET OTHER PEOPLE PLAY YOUR GAME FOR YOU. IF YOU DO THIS, PEOPLE WILL CATCH ON AND WILL BE LESS LIKELY TO HELP YOU. ALSO, ACTIONS TAKEN ON THE ISLAND GIVE OUT XP, WHICH IS WHAT INCREASES YOUR LEVEL... IF YOU LET OTHER PLAYERS COLLECT ALL THE GOODS FOR YOU, THEN YOU ARE MISSING OUT ON THE XP YOU WOULD HAVE EARNED AND IT WILL TAKE YOU MUCH LONGER TO LEVEL UP.
