Island Sanctuary Critique

[ChameleonMS]

The island is not casual enough. We are forced to give Mammets days off, great. But If you have any animals in your pasture, you cannot take a day off. I had all my animals at Gleeful status. This was Wednesday morning; I returned to my Island to collect and feed Thursday evening (approximaly 36 hours later); all my animals were Hostile. The animals go from full to starving in 24 hours, causing happiness loss if you do not log in every day. This was supposed to be casual content, but it is playing more as a Mobile game that needs you to check 2-3 each day.
I can pre-schedule the workshop for a week, let me pre-schedule feeding, leavings collecting, crop watering, and harvesting for a week too. That would make this, truly causal content.

upgrading pasture to the max allows you to let mammets take care of the animals for you

Right. Both the pasture and cropland can be automated by paying your mammets once fully upgraded. You can even buy seeds from the mammet if you don't want to gather them personally.

As far as I've seen the seed you can buy can not be gathered.
Or at least I've never found them.

I haven't actually looked into it aside from reading the tutorial on it, so I didn't look at the inventory. If that's the case then those must be rare seeds? I've been saving my money for the last expansion after finishing up everywhere else.

Not entirely sure if they're rare. I haven't been able to harvest my garden yet since I unlocked them so I have no idea what the profit margin on them is but considering they're 2 cowries each it should be decent even if you're just selling them raw without using them in your workshop.

Maybe not "rare" necessarily, but have to buy them from the mammet regardless it looks like. I haven't seen those either. They are definitely fairly cheap at 2.

Thanks for the clarification, looking forward to getting to IS level 10 then when my IS can truly become Casual content where I am supposed to take my time with it. That still means the island is not casual enough, as this feature is locked behind max rank and you the pasture right away. The auto maintenance feature should be available as soon as the feature (pasture/crops) is unlocked.
