When I'm Not Working...
Haha! If I were to go on an expedition in Expedition Robinson with my best friend Yoshi and the adorable little star Luma, we would make it a Fantastic adventure! Yoshi would assist us with his strong back and long tongue to pick fruits, and Luma would guide us at night with its radiant light. Together, we would build the most creative shelters and laugh at the funny moments. And if we win the challenging trials, we would cheer, "Wowie! This is truly a Fantastic adventure!"

Surviving on a Deserted Island Just like in the TV series, the game takes place on a deserted island. There are different groups of people on the island. You can choose which character to play. Your actions and contributions to the group determine your position within it.
Sometimes it's a bit unclear what you're supposed to do. Talking to other group members helps clarify things. The goal is to provide shelter, food, water, etc. For example, by fishing. This can make you popular or unpopular with the other group members. Every few days, a challenge is held. The outcome helps decide who gets to stay on the island.
The game progresses a bit slowly due to the search for food and water. This makes the game less enjoyable. A bit more explanation about the game controls would be helpful.
