Heaven Island — экспериментальная игра, в которой Вам откроются удивительные виды и места.
На этом острове словно забываешь о времени, и каждый раз, посещая это место, Вы словно отправляетесь в путешествие по затаенным уголкам своей души. Все проблемы и печали отходят на второй план, а ум и душа наслаждаются заслуженным отдыхом.
Пейзажи вдохновлены работами Ренцо Пиано, а также книгой "Origins of Architectural Pleasure". Одной из главных целей является умиротворение игрока при созерцании этих видов.
Данная игра — словно массовый эксперимент, в котором Вам предоставляется возможность увидеть других игроков, понять их сущность и установить так называемую "связь".
Все детали и предметы на острове, вплоть до самого маленького и незаметного камня, сделаны и расположены вручную.
Мы надеемся, что Вам понравится этот уникальный опыт.
Игра может запускаться как на устройствах Oculus VR, Gear VR и (скоро) Steam Vive VR, так и без их использования.
Предупреждение: на некоторых устройствах Apple Macbook происходит вылет при запуске игры. Проблема будет исправлена в кратчайшие сроки!

Just because I DO NOT recommend this game, does not mean it is bad. It simply means, it's probably not for most gamers. Please read to understand what I mean by this.
This is not really a game, it's more of an immersive simulation experience, as for the other similar games by this creator. Meaning, if you are looking for challenges or quests, there are none aside from the achievements. I purchased this game SOLELY for the trading cards and the achievements, because they are super cute. Other than that, if you are not an achievement hunter or a badge stockpile type of person, this is not for you. Unless- you just want something with no challenges, just to walk around/chill... Because it's nothing more than a walking simulator. If you are under the influence of something, or enjoy flowers, you may enjoy it also, hell I dunno.
The cards start dropping after 2-3 hours of gameplay I do believe.
This game would probably be very beautiful with a VR headset, and it looks like what I'd call a definition of "heaven" (I'd hope to go to a place like this when I die, in other words.)
All in all, I personally prefer this over the "Heaven Forest VR MMO" because I find the views beautiful. I have yet to play Heaven Forest Nights, but Heaven Forest does have a little bit more to it- and I enjoyed the fact that that game taught mindfulness and the ways of the buddha. BUT with this one, I feel like the map is larger slightly, and more "Peaceful." Everyone has their own definition of "peaceful" though, and mine is the ocean, not the forest. This game would benefit from including "Scrolls" to read like the Forest game, I believe that would add more to the exxperience. They do have little book pages to read as you walk around the island, but nothing to gain from reading them.
All in all, again, it's great for those few of us who love crafting badges, easy achievements, and chill/simulation experiences for our own various reasons- Even children may enjoy this game, but I do not recommend it for the majority of the population. Most people would call it "boring."
This strangely relaxing VR experience is not really a game or at least begs the questions as to what we classify as a game these days. For most people, this game will be a short experience followed by a swift uninstall and a cautionary tale that not all big discounts are worth it but for some people like myself, you will punish yourself by nabbing all the in-game achievements before you swiftly uninstall it and remind yourself that not all achievements are worth getting. Whilst this isn't the worst experience I have played recently I cannot recommend it especially as this is a VR showcase masquerading as an MMO.
it`s not a game and against my better knowledge I bought it.
it`s bigger then i thought !
it looks like it came out of Super Mario with "MYST" structures and philosophical notes.
it`s really beautiful (missing desktop-wallpapers, ingame-cam & screensaver)
wasted potentials.
very relaxing.
Okay, really this game is a little less of a game that an island to explore. The price is right and for .99 no one has the right to complain about this one. It is a fun diversion that may not last more than a couple hours or less for those very impatient, but it has hidden intersting points if you take time to explore the island.
- PLEASE READ -
Keep in mind this game is not for everyone.
Not everygame is for every player.
This game is a WALKING SIMULATOR.
With that said..
I very much enjoy "Heaven Island". I strongly recommend this to others who ENJOY Walking Simulators. As well as anything that is relaxing. There is not alot to do which is normal due to it being a Walking Simulator. The movement on the game is great, you can walk or sprint, plus bonus if you're like me and you looove to jump, there's jumping! While wandering around the island you're able to collect seashells or apples, not sure why but it's a cute little feature, (Press E). As far as closing the game, typical with the engine it's created with; Esc will close your game. You are NOT crashing.
I'm rather dissapointed with alot of these; scratch that, 90% of these bad reviews. Mostly because NONE of them have read what the game is about and still write a bad reviews. I'm sorry this is not a survival game. This is not Gmod, nor COD. This is "Heaven Island" an Adventurous, Walking Simulator that is made by an Indie Dev. Who has also made it to work with VR. It has beautiful graphics; yes they're not HIGH DEF DETAIL but they are still BEAUTIFUL. There is music every now and then, but not all the time. The ambience is very calming and once again it is very relaxing to play or even just to leave it open for the sound while you do things in your room/house. There are also little open books everywhere with cute and meaningful messages, yes some of them are hard to understand but I believe the Dev's native tongue is not English; the point gets across though and they're very nice messages. I look forward to the next Walking Simulator I see of his in Green Light. It would be very awesome to see a game from this Dev that had this open world style but with more to do; such as a survival game.
It's a simple, relaxing game that I recommend to people with a VR headset. It's a great way to get away from the stresses of life. I highly recommend anyone who doesn't have a VR headset to buy one and play this game. It's a very relaxing experience. :)
I don't know why people are giving bad comments on this game. But I shouldn't even call it a game. They are right this is more like a spiritual Journey. This journey has changed my life. I couldn't ask for a more peaceful thing to do with my time. 10/10 would pick up apples again.
Okay so... Good thing is that its a larger map but then the bad things is that i got all achievements in 0,6h so yeah...(OMG SO MUCH CONTENT) and basically walking simulator + collect these things simulator.
Boring graphics that look somewhat moldy, there are graphical glitches everywhere that basicly says "kill me" and unoriginal quotes.
No pause menu, sounds or options
Oh and it crashes all the time.
I feel like people are missing the point of this game, and if you ARE NOT using VR for this game you definitely arent getting it! People play this on a monitor with keyboard and mouse and say, this is dumb, its a walking simulator. No. Its meant to be an escape, a relaxing world you can only really "inhabit" with VR, really this is more of an art piece than a game. No there isnt much to do, but is there tons of stuff to do in real life sitting on the beach?? No, its about relaxing! So go buy some head gear, play this game and relax dammit, give these guys a break with the negative reviews its good for what it is!
*I dont have an oculus/vive myself, but tried this at a friends place and it was pretty cool
Well, I got this game for 5 cents, so I can't complain much, but at this stage, this game shouldn't just be early acces, the price should be less than what it is. There isn't enough content to justify the charge. As much as I enjoy playing this game to relax, I really can't recommend that you buy it straight away. Now, if this game advances massively, and we all get a price break, that's one thing, but this I don't see that happening. The lack of a menu is another thing. You press escape, like usual, and it just closes the game instead of giving you a GUI like you'd expect. If the developer of this game sees this review, I would encourage you to implement a GUI and sensitivity settings, as that seems to be the main source of most people's irritation with the game. Maybe some ore acheivements for reading books, and allowing for sspiritr customization, like saving the colors you unlock from reading. Please like this comment if you think any of this is a good idea so the Dev sees it.
well whats to say about this one, its rather dull empty world "MMO" would have more life if there were random bots wandering about then players since noone plays this for much more then maybe an hour at most for the achievements.
your really only going to want to pick this up if you want a quick and easy game to 100% for achievements,
imo if you have any issues with motion sickness, playing this for a short while really knocked me about, so tread carefully.
i get its more or less a proof of concept for VR however the floaty controls arent much fun to work with, perhaps with a controller but even still thats not an excuse to not have any options for it.
also if you have multiple monitors like myself enjoy your mouse going for a visit to the other one and live there for the time your playing it.
In this game you can run around on a wonderful island and collect shells as well as apples.
There are also some philosophical quotes, which are nice to read.
The graphics are really good for this small price.
If you are looking for a game, in which you can explore a landscape, this would be a good choice.
This game is not much. I say that because I am trying to be positive lol. (It is instead of it's not.) Ok, let me explain by telling you what it is not. Remember "Playstation Home?" It's not that. Or, Second Life? It's not that either. Paradise Island has taken one tiny element of those games and brought it into the VR age; exploration of a virtual "unreal" estate. It works from a technical standpoint, despite the few errors I see in technical glitches.
Remember those shoebox theatres we made as kids, (if you were born in another milenia) where you made a long scrolled storyboard filmstrip of crayon art on butcher paper and inserted it into the shoebox on dowels like a tv? Then you could wind the bottom dowel, scrolling the scene past the hole in the box so you were watching your own moving pictures. Then you could wind the top dowel to rewind the movie. Paradise Island is like that. The gamer, and I use that word loosely here, does not seem to actually interact with the environment. The scenes seem to scroll past you while you are standing still, rather. The only exception to this is that you see apples laying along the ground with these strange green auras, and seashells along the beach with the same auras. When you see those, click the "E" key and there you have a game. You, my friend, are collecting objects. And, if you collect 70 of each you will have a 100% game. That may be the only sane reason to spend more than 10 minutes in this game.
Now, Let me tell you what I would like this game to be. It would be more engaging if you interacted with the scenes, without walking through objects. It would be even better if the people there were visible, instead of auras. And, what's with the aura thing? Why does everything have to have an aura? I thought someone was following me, because everytime I turned around an aura was in my face. Soon, I realized the aura was my own. Yes, I have an aura as well, and it moves more slowly than I do, so I see it when I circle around quickly. So, you get the idea of how inane this game really is. Also, it would be great if you could talk, or chat with people you meet there... like a VR chat room. An MMO experience means interaction among gamers.
The only engaging thing I found was under the sea. There were a few fish and turtles. (It didn't seem to matter that I was underwater, since I apparantly didn't need to breathe.) Then, I walked around the island, and suddenly a cabin appeared before me, and then suddenly a pagoda. I walked through a fence. I closed the game, and realized I had a couple of achievements for picking up the apples. That's when I understood the whole point of the game. So, now when you see me playing this game again, you will know... Eden wants to 100% that game... all 70 seashells... all 70 apples. Poor Eden.
Am I being harsh? Remember Second Life? I loved that. I should go play that again soon and may. Remember Playstation Home? I played that too much, and sadly spent too much money on virtual property on that game. I don't recommend you play that either, as it can be addictive and expensive. Now, if Paradise Island were either of those games, I'd probably have found another guilty pleasure. Lucky for me, this is not that.
This is not a MMO or even a game it is simply a map. There is absolutely no interaction, combat, crafting, missions, purpose or chat. If the graphics were awesome you might be able to get away with it but they're average to mediocre.
For a cheap game Paradise Island isn't all that bad. There are much worse games out there for a similar price, but also much better games as well. Paradise Island follows the story of the ghost of someone trapped on the island. In order to escape they must collect 70 apples and 70 shells, like some tedious Easter egg hunt. To be honest the being a ghost part is probably not true. It's just the fact that you can pass through most of the terrain, including trees, some walls and most ladders. Not to mention all of the wildlife seems to ignore you.
Graphically the game is fairly beautiful. Golden sandy beaches, clear turquoise seas and lush green trees and plants. There are several landmarks dotted around the island too. Including a large Buddha statue, a small lighthouse and a few other places to note. Travelling from landmark to landmark can be fairly exciting and gives the game something of interest to aim for. But after a while you lose interest. The island, for the most part, looks very samey in places. The same rock formations dot opposite ends of the coast, along with several small boats washed up on the shore. Pointless books sit scattered around the island on pedestals talking about some pointless nonsense that, to be quite honest, no one really cares about.
For the most part Paradise is an interesting, if not short lived, walking sim. While collecting the shells and apples dotted around can be fairly exciting, it does get boring very quickly. To be honest, if you want a decent walking sim with a generous amount of freedom, then I'd go for something else. The vanishing of Ethan Carter is a fairly good example, or if you want a game set on island as well, then Salt is a better option.
With a cheap price tag, Paradise Island is worth a go, even for a few minutes, but if you want something that lasts longer, and is more enjoyable I suggest looking elsewhere. Good Day!
putting the low price aside,
if like me, you suffer from stress due to work life or private life, then, this game sure can help you relax, seaside noises, wandering around as little spirit orbs, whilst being able to collect seashells and apples and the ability to explore small buildings is a nice touch.
the graphics are nice as is the soudn quality, i also loved being able to go underwater and watch the sealife swim around or, walk upto a plant and watch a butterfly :).
the game does have potential if the designers wish to take it further.
only thing that I can think of that needs to be sorted, is the slow response to mouse moves that eventually end up in you nearly doing a full 360 sping :)
This review for mac users only
Well..... I bought this game, i press "play" buttom -> game crashed, after 6 days againe i press play buttom -> game crashed .. then uninstalled the game -.-"
It kind of makes me feel like I have cataracts. I can see how it would be therapeutic or calming but it's one of those things you pick up for 5 minutes and get bored of. I do like the little books with quotes in them. That's a nice touch. lol
Literally walking simulator.
If you're into shitty graphics and unoriginal quotes, this thing is for you!
The audio in this game is amazing, by that I mean, there is none.
But even if there was, it'd probably be shitty stock music
Should be free.
Step 1: Read negative reviews, and question why people complain about 50 cent game
Step 2: Buy game and play it
Step 2.5: Realize game is actually garbage
Step 3: Write review complaining about the game -_-
It looks very smoothing, relaxing alright but there's nothing to do here, you can explore this tiny island in less than 8 minutes, I'm not sure what was the point od making this game - it's not really a game though. At the same time $50cents I don't mind spending...
