Island Experiment is a really nice game for iOS, a title where you have to explore and build on an island, using some really nice graphics.
There’s a lot to do in this title, which means that you might have a lot of questions and hopefully we have the answers, in the form of our Island Experiment cheats and tips for a perfect strategy to explore the island and get all the buildings in the game.
So if you got stuck, are just starting out or you’re simply looking to improve your game, check out our Island Experiment cheats and tips below and have fun!
1. Follow the missions
One of the most important things to do in order to make sure that you progress smoothly through the game is to follow the quests that are given to you and complete them one at a time: they take you through the game’s story and make things all the more interesting!
2. Focus on food production
Make sure that you upgrade your plots to the maximum level and that you get as much food produced as possible since you’ll need a ton of it throughout the game. Don’t wait for the game to tell you to upgrade the plots and do so as soon as possible, producing as much food as possible.
3. How to get keys in Island Experiment
Probably one of the most difficult resources to get is the key in the game. You can get more keys by completing the tasks and simply finishing missions: they are limited and offered scarcely, but if you are active enough and keep playing, and complete missions, you will get your keys!
4. Clear all the debris in the game
It might seem that you get a lot of useless resources from cleaning up all the grass and other things that the game keeps spawning, but you will actually need them eventually, so make sure that you always clean up as much debris as possible.
And if you really have too much of a particular thing, you can always sell some from your warehouse for some nice coins in return!
5. Upgrade your buildings
Focus on upgrading your passive resource producing buildings first (like houses) because you will get more resources from upgrading them.
Eventually, you will want all buildings upgraded as much as possible, so make sure you check out the requirements and have the materials required for those upgrades.
6. Move plants blocking the way
Some things in the game might seem to stay there forever and block your way. Simply click the green arrow that allows you to move the buildings and you will see which other objects like plants and berries you can move – this is also a good strategy to pile them up in a certain spot and harvest them later, just making room for exploration!
There are a ton of things to do in Island Experiment and trying it all is basically all that you have to do, to sum things up. Just stay in the game and play often and get all the nice rewards and resources and you will make it really far!
My warehouse is at level 16. My question is, how many more upgrades can I do on the warehouse? Or is this an infinitely upgradable thing?
I’d like to know this also, I upgrade and immediately shows I need to upgrade again
I’d also like to know how to get the keys to the 2 chests I’ve had since start of game, seems like they’ve forgotten all about them lol
Hello i got a lot of prizes they fill up my warehouse how do i know if i can sell them?
Anything named “Prize” you can sell. You will never need it.
Hi,
I have to build my supercomputer, but everytime I get the message Check your internetconnection. But the connection is just ok!
How can I complete this mission?
Anyone???
Thanks.
I was super curious as to if we get another warehouse or not? Because it’s getting annoying to have to sell things I need to complete one quest and build it all back up simply because I didn’t have space. I lost a gear today because of if. 🙁
Sorry to say you only get the one warehouse. Are you completing quest?
just have to pick and choose your priorities.
pick a building to upgrade, or get the supplies needed for removing obstacles,
just don’t get too many programs going on at once, .
Make sure you upgrade your warehouse also
About to go to Level 20, upgraded all buildings that had limits, and i still can’t do Weiss’s battery quest, only 4 workers, cant get to pyramid, no other special quests other than Christmas, sell off items, upgrade storage. What did i miss? I do have a set of coordinates sitting in storage i dunt know what to do with. I have already rebuilt the supercomp 3x already. Thx in advance.
Im with you… Exactly like u described. What a bummer!
I am at level 19 and the game has stopped and says wait for more adventures coming soon…when will this be?
If you want to produce food, water, wood, or other objects, often the lowest level production is by far the fastest! Rather than upgrading all your fields, only do what the missions require, and only produce 6 rations at a time. Check the stats, but if you don’t want to wait, the lowest level is by far the most efficient!
Efficient as in most food asap. The farm upgrades don’t make much difference as to coin to food ratio, the best deal is lvl 4 but only slightly. I use lvl 4 farms because I want to set my workers on a task and check back in 12 to 24 hrs. This is efficient with MY time. If I remember right lvl 2 and 4 are good deals but lvl 3 gives you less food/coin than lvl 2 and lvl 2 is barely higher food/coin than lvl 1, while lvl 1 is really fast. So if you have plenty of money and are jonesing for food right now lvl 1 is great. In conclusion don’t upgrade your farms past lvl 2 until your houses are upgraded, when you do upgrade farms push straight for lvl 4, lvl 3 is worthless. For me efficiency means waiting for the load screen as little as possible, maybe this game isn’t the best fit for me, lol.
I’m stuck on level 21! Nothing el to do….. When will this game move on up and open next levels or clouds???? PLEASE HELP!!!!
I’m also at level 21 and have gotten a new mission in a while. The only award I haven’t achieved is getting to level 25.
When will the new upgrade come? Love the game but might quit because there is nothing else to do.
Is anyone else watching the “movies” and then getting an error message that the movie was interrupted and not immediately completing your task? Happens all the time to me! Anyone else?
I have been playing for a while and I feel I am missing something when it comes to coins in the game. I just never seem to have enough. Is there a good way to make money that I have missed?
Upgrade your houses early on in the game and just keep logging on to collect it.
What I do to get my coins $ up is grow food on level 1. And click on my houses every 2 mins to collect. I do this while watching TV. Yes it’s time consuming but when you need coins its helpful.
Yes. Make sure to tap each coin producing item before you close the game. You’ll get a pro rated amount of coins and it will start generating again immediately. It makes a huge difference.
i cant get to the second stone door on level 19 what do i do?
Best advice is upgrade your money source.Upgrading the houses is the best option once you complete a couple of your missions. You constantly need money to keep your food source up and you need lots of food for almost everything in this game. Good luck and happy gaming!
I don’t understand the advice “clear all debris”. Food is expensive and if you play often (because you have to with most houses filling up after 10min) you will get way too many items for your warehouse size (daily gear dependant). As to selling items, that’s a huge waste when you get 1 coin per item that took you at least 3 – 9 coin to make the food needed to clear debris. The only advantage is revealing more treasure with the sonar, but if you keep collecting the treasure it will come back to the old spot just as fast as the new revealed spot. Is there something I’m missing?
Don’t clear debris unless you need the product or the pathway. Often quest items are accessible when visually it appears they aren’t … Or transversely a path must be cleared when visually there is a clear path to reach the quest item. Consider the debris an alternate warehouse. It is far too costly to remove grass, bamboo, berries, and shells if you don’t need them immediately.
It seems like if you have too much debris around it cuts down on the gold you get from the sonar. Remove traps and piles of rocks, garbage and fallen trees and your gold comes faster.
I am on level 15 and still only have 3 workers. Getting very annoyed with this game!
There is a quest where you end up rescuing a scientist, he ends up being your worker. Check your quests as you should’ve done it by now
When you upgrade your houses, you get another worker for each one you upgrade.
I don’t believe this is true. I have a wooden houses and stone houses at lvl 3, premium hoese at lvl 2 and brick houses ar lvl 1 – I neve ‘got’ any free worker(s). Only the recued scientist..
Visiting island #2 I got the key to unlock the door but it won’t let me do it BC of a water hole in the way how do clear it to unlock the door?
I’m not sure how many people know this, but there’s a certain type of bird that if you click on it (this is on pc, not sure for phones) it’ll give you one food and quite a few coins!
it is the bird that is clutching a bag in his feet! Also there is a gopher or mole that pokes his head up once in awhile and if you click on him quick you get some coins.
you must’ve skipped a quest, as I rescued another worker quite some time ago. I have 4 workers now.
Has anyone run into the issue of the game not starting up? It flashes the developers logo, then quits. Any help appreciated.
Try taking the game off your phone and downloading it again. It will just pick up where you left off.
How do i open the slots on the second little island group
Hey there 🙂 what can you buy with the coins you get on the islands that you sail to?
Melissa, Click on the store and then click on the golden coin at top right.
I am looking for permanent grass. I found permanent fern at bottom left of screen (to the left of the fallen log). Any other permanents would be great to know!
Debbie, click on the green “x” at the bottom of the screen- it will highlight the grass that is permanent. You can also quickly find the stacks of coins that pop up over time. Many times, they are hidden by other items and you can’t see them or get to them. If you click on them, they will move too!
Where in the 2nd archipelago can I find the magic stone that opens object 101?
Where in the 2nd archipelago can I find the magic stone that opens object 101? Is it is in a chest??
I want to know this too. Plus, how can I expand the storage on the ship. I don’t have enough gems. Seems like I am getting nowhere in this part of the game.
you can expand the storage when you upgrade your boat. remember to empty your chests out when you go back to the main island
Did I ever figure it out? I can’t get it
Hi keep getting message to explore 3rd islans on no 1 but done it and does not go away ideas?

I can’t play game on my iPhone anymore can anybody help me get it back please
I started this game as a I’m bored I’ll delete it in an hour thing. I ended up liking it but would like to start over since I three a lot away in the beginning and made it really hard to do anything. I have tried unistalling and reinstalling, blocking the app from my facebook, going into my phone and physically clearing the game data and cache. Still it’s in the same spot and I am beginning to get frustrated. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Okay object 101 is what is going to make me delete this game.. where in the world is object 101?
To the right of the spider statue along the rock wall. It is a ‘different’ looking stone.
I got the cat the other day. What does it do and how do i use it. Im in level 20
where do I find the magical symbol what island is on?
I have grown all my patches of food, have 0 food in inventory, but it won’t let me harvest them because I get a message that I have to upgrade my warehouse because it’s full. So I’m stuck and can’t do anything. Can’t upgrade the warehouse because I need a gear, can’t get the gear because I can’t feed my workers even though I have food but can’t put it in the warehouse. ??????
Can you move part of your items to your boat and then try to get your food?
you can clear items in your warehouse by selling them or moving them to your boat storage temporarily. you don’t need food to get the gear, it comes from the satellite once a day.
I am confused….. I have food, and plenty of it, but my game still says my workers are starving. How do I feed them?
Where can i find a magical symbol to Open the Stone door?
Can anyone tell me how to make green gears
you have transfer the items needed to the ship and it was on the first map the second island on the map is a little stand.
I
have made the gears on the second island but when I click on the bag when it is done can not find them. Help
it went into your boat storage, you have to remove it and put it in your warehouse for it to be available on the main island
Hi Kelly,
My problem is…once I have created the gear and click on it, it disappears..so I have been unable to complete the quest. This also happens when trying to retrieve the seed of a carnivorous plant and am unable to completed the egg quest as well. Can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong as I am getting tired of wasting well needed resources…Thank yo
where do you get obsidian from?
I am with you. How do I get that stuff???
From the Obsidian cave back by the Tomb of Arachnis.
How do you get the rocks out of the way to open the cave so you can enter it? I just about have that whole segment of that part of the island cleared and can’t open the spider tomb or the statue or the cave. Thanks for any advice.
From the obsidian cave to the right of the spider and egg statues. You’ll first have to get rid of the obstructions in front of the cave, and then dynamite the stone barrier. Hope I remember correctly
How do I feed the people???
To feed the people I just click on the bubble above the head and send a food gift to someone. If there is another way I would like to know as this way is a bit annoying, but it gets rid of the food bubble for a while.
there is an icon by the green X that you use to move items you can click on that to send gifts
can any one please tell me where I get the plant acid from on level 19. thanks
You have to get the acid off of the 3rd set of Islands. I forgot which one but it should tell you. You need to take supplies with you to make it, go to the Island and then click on it to see what you need.* Note i do this when all my workers are busy so that it doesn’t cost me a trip to the Island.
I have got the halloween update and I have travelled to the halloween island and started making my way through then I am asked to use a cupcake to destroy the witch but I don’t have any and I can’t produce any until I have finished the quest. Some one help me out please x

I’m so new to the game. I am on level 5 and I can’t seem to get any quests. When do they come? I can never get anywhere as I keep having to get more money to get more food. It seems like that is all I am doing.
would be nice to have a ‘search’ or ‘find’ to scan comments and replies for keywords on this page.
hello , can you help me , i have a problém in my game . i’m blocked in a cavern , i can’t leave this cavern ,level 19 , can you tell me what i do? thanks !!!
At the bottom left of the cave is an “exit door”. When ready to leave, just click on the door. It takes you outside. It will warn you that resources are needed to re-enter. Don’t worry it just means make more shovels before you come back. (It takes 23 shovels to gather everything in the cave, so make 25).
I’m on the island with the kids, how do I get gems to get the candy.
Is there anything you can do when visiting neighbors? I visit and tap on things and nothing.
Not that Ive found ?
My biggest suggestion is to upgrade your warehouse and buildings that produce coins as early on as possible. It might keep you from completing a bunch of missions right off the bat but you will need storage and you will need money! I had to spend like 2 weeks buying and upgrading and holding money to get enough money to do a few things because I didn’t think the coins were that important except for food. I was wrong! And you will run out of storage! It is upgradable to like a 1750 capacity though, level 40/50. You can look it up on Wikipedia
You will Egypt at least one more after a certain quest after that I think you have to buy then with actual money…?
Probably an upgrade they want you do do as a mission
How do I enter the Cave of Riches? I have cleared the way to the entrance. I click on the cave and nothing happens. I don’t even get a pop up of what I need to do next. What am I doing wrong?
I need to find fabric to complete wigwams and it says they are a reward for completing quest. I don’t know how to get this. I have everything else to complete wigwams.
There is a massive fog covering the island and I can’t see anything but white fog. This game is one big inconvenience at the moment. Does anyone know why this is happening????? Please remove the fog.
Once you do the novice task, the Cave of Riches opens
I need to upgrade my warehouse, but I don’t have room for what I need to upgrade it
When traveling to other islands I cant figure out how to use the exchange machine. I cant figure out the flowers in the basket. really need some help. this happens with the exchange machine all the time. I am about to quit that part because I never get passed the first island anyway.
