Chat with the locals, learn the history of the island, and get to know the strange and exciting personalities of the people whom live there.

It's been awhile. (Version 1.8)

Hey everyone,

First off, I want to thank every one of you who has been trying out Iris Island. I was amazed to see that after all this time, "II" was still getting downloads. And now we've made it past 1000! That is very exciting to me. So thank you again and I hope you are all enjoying your time on the island!

Now to get to some details about the new update. Some users have been having issues with little aspects of the game. I have fixed a couple of them and am continuing to search out answers to any other bugs you may be having.
None of these are necessarily game breakers, but if you are worried about running into these issues, please update your game to V1.8. And if you already have an issue with Warsh's mini-quest, feel free to email me (letsfilmsomething@yahoo.com) and send me your save file so I can fix you all up!

Here's what I have fixed in the new update:
--------------------------------------------------
~Update 1.8~

-Fixed Warth's crate mission to Food Store from breaking.
-Fixed Frem showing up in caves at the wrong point in time.
-Added reward in "Secret Forest" room.
--------------------------------------------------

What's that last fix you may ask? "Secret Forest room"? If you haven't found this place yet, I'll give you a hint:

"Stay on track, kick those feet, and don't forget to jump. The path to surprises may be out of sight."



Good luck and have fun!

I don't quite know what it is about this one, but Iris Island is kinda inspiring for me. Maybe I need to branch out into less combat-centric games, heheh. Either way, hoping to check this out, maybe review, soon?

gotta thank everyone for the un-marked spoilers :/...

Random thoughts (may include spoilers)

not bad so far can choose gender

you have nifty symbols for doing things like catching fish

i love the mini quests but would be nice to have the ability to check what you have left to do.

shame you use sp to sprint

shame items in inventory aren't separated in types

when you use a item in your inventory that restores life or stamina it should stay on that screen until your done

buying a house is nice!

where do you obtain more supplys for the attic of the house???
hemp,wool,weft and warp yarn. i cant find more!

cant find the cellar key in house (also box bottom right of attack doesn't move a second time)

cant find captains friend to give treasure too

cant fix the rails in the magma mines

cant find or make more boots

max skill lvl is 15! :D (glad it wasn't endless)

what was the point of the fish shell!?


general

this game defiantly would of benefited from a full guide/walkthru
alot of the stuff people did ask for help with at least int he latest ver 1.8 was obvious if you even played the game at all.
others despite looking everywhere i had access too could find nothing to progress the game.
ignoring the downsides.
the leveling up skills could of been more useful.
it was not really needed to do.
i mean there was nothing you could create that couldn't be bought in stores (tho youd save money)

you just wander around (thankfully w/o needing to do things like eat)
and...live life pretty much.
while solving this random mystery to pass time.


overall
tho this didn't bore me. its not what im lookign for in rpgs
so recommended to people who just want to waste time.
love the game, but I'm a bit stuck

I found the ancient amulet, but can't figure out what to do with it, read the captain's journal and found the missing pages but can't do anything with the pirate quests, and got down in the mines but I can't figure out how to fix the rail

little help?

(already got to the follow frem sequence and got the ending hwere everyone dies, but thats it)
Well, it seems not completing the pirate ship quests is the main difference between ending A and B.edit: My theory is confirmed after getting ending B. If I had to guess how to complete ending C, it would likely involve completing all (or a lot of) quests, finding secrets, and/or getting all skill levels to 15 for special skills by the time you go into crystal cave and initiate the mount magma eruption scene in the cave dweller chief's room. Also when trade ship arrives you will be unable to go out on your little boat, fish for crabs, or work for Warsh for up to 10 g per chore.

Hello ^^
Would you write a walkthrough or a guide with hints about the quests?
I finished the game with the B ending.

Very funny. I liked the game a lot ;)

When you got ending B can you describe what happened up from you starting from following Frem towards the end of game? Did you have the pirate ship restored and full of crew (all 5 members)? Warning: If you sleep in a bed after finishing gathering the crew quest, the trade ship will leave losing your opportunity to get special items needed for stuff like crafting in attic. One member you may have missed:
Miner that you save in dark caves sitting by a campfire at miner camp.
There seems to be a bug where the shortcut exit in the miners camp (right of elevator) of lava sector doesn't exist (can enter from old well and exit from shortcut path) but not enter from camp)

edit: never mind, you have to pressing direction (like you are moving) when jumping with A key (except in minecart jump)

add: by the way what are the basic guidelines of getting each ending? And how do you save the old man trapped in the fire? edit2: never mind you push A and left to jump across table to save him in his house (Dolan's/information center)
I had got true ending A with 24 villagers saved, the pirate ship restored, Frem dead, and couldn't save the old man during fire escape. edit2: Now I saved him making 25 villagers saved (is 25 the max number of villagers to save?) Also on path on true ending you will be timed to escape the island, at 1 minute: you will get warning that island is becoming too hot to be habitable and at 30 seconds screen goes red hot and makes your movement very slow and 0 seconds is obviously game over.
Hello! So far I'm really enjoying the game. I was wondering how you got wool to make clothes?

(edit) Just kidding, i figured it out!

I'm stuck in the Dwellers Cave after I failed to get past the guard. It wont let me place another crystal in the trap.
I really enjoy this game! I got the fishing skill maxed and now I'm getting money to get the other things in the house. I made a save spot for the girl first then the boy. I'm stuck on the find 5 crew mates with the girl.

Hehe :D

"Stay on TRACK, kick those FEET, and don't forget to JUMP. The path to surprises may be OUT OF SIGHT."

Each last word is very important. I encourage you to visit the Miners' camp and then think on it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

If you find it, there is one other hidden place you can hunt down for rewards, but I warn you to save before you try:

"Wave farewell as you jump farther than he who tried before. Bring potions across the lake of fire, towards a cave of riches galore."

DAMN, I hate riddles :)
@Sachiko

Not a problem. It's the designers' responsibility to communicate well in their game to the players. It was my fault for not leaving more indication.

When using the shortcut in the mines, did you press 'A' to jump into the hole? It is elevated off the ground, so you need to use the jump key to get into the passage.

Wow... Really? I suck big time. ._.

I will give that a try. It would be nice to be given an indication that I have to jump into the hole, however. I was never given any, as far as I can recall.

EDIT: Yep, it works, and I'm a dummy for not trying it before.

You will be able to find more weft and warp yarn by pursuing the pirate quests. After a couple quests in, a trade-ship will arrive. There, you can buy the yarn you need. And after the ship is gone, yarn will be stocked in general store.
I wanna report a bug.

The shortcut to the lower levels of the mines works for going in, but not for going OUT! The only way to get out is by checking the skeleton in the lava, then agreeing to be escorted out. If you lose that chance, you are trapped in the mines forever!

Also, I know I'm gonna sound stupid by asking this, but how do you find weft and warp threads beyond the ones you get in the crate on the upper floor of your house? Those are the only ones I've been able to find and with those I can't even go up a level in crafting.
@mrph011

First, complete the quest given from the Captain's Journal. Then, begin the next pirate quest to gain access to the chest in the Captain's room.
