I can't complete a puzzle stage no matter what I do.

  • Check the completion requirements to make sure you're gathering the correct pieces.
  • Prioritize clearing pieces on the bottom of the stage. It'll make it easier to get combos.
  • The hints the game gives are random, and so they're not always the most effective moves. Before following a hint, check if there's a better way to do things.
  • Try to set off bombs so that as many bombs as possible go off together.
  • Try using all the support items you have right at the start of the puzzle.
  • If you run out of moves when you're very close to completing a puzzle, use Gems to pick up where you left off with a few extra moves.

I want to change devices.

Follow the steps below to transfer data from your current device to a new device.

  1. Before changing devices, select "Data backup" from the bottom right of the title screen, and follow the instructions until a backup has been completed. Be sure to take note of the ID and Password displayed at the end so as not to forget them. Save the information and do not show it to anyone else.
  2. After changing devices, download Pocket Island from the app store and install it onto your new device.
  3. After launching Pocket Island on your new device, select "Restore data" from the bottom right of the title screen. Follow the instructions, and input the ID and Password from Step 1.
  4. If completed successfully, your data will be transferred to your new device so that you can carry on playing.

Read carefully before you begin:

  • You won't be able to back up data again for 24 hours after data transfer. For this reason we recommend backing your data right before the transfer.

  • Do not perform a data transfer in a train, car, or any other high-speed moving vehicle.
  • Do not quit the app, or move to an area with a bad connection during the transfer.
  • The backup data is valid for 30 days. Once 30 days have passed, please start the again from the beginning.
