Description
Once a quiet peaceful heaven, our island is now under the threat of its volcano. Your task is to move the inhabitants to safer places.
Volcano Island is a turn-based strategy game. Before the eruption of the volcano, the island is gradually sinking beneath the ocean. Your challenges are wandering sharks and octopuses. Also there are some people who can't swim. You should accompany them with swimming ones.
Each task is composed of 3 levels. In each level, you have different challenges and tools. And there are 5 different islands to play with.
We know that the game rules are not easy to learn at once. To make things a bit easier, we provided a very comprehensive and easy-to-read help. Volcano Island is one of the few sophisticated games on mobile platform that can provide you the lasting fun and playing experience even after months or years of playing.
Save the islanders before the eruption!

Great implementation of a great game!
Volcano Island HD is a turn based strategy game based on the classical board game Escape from the Atlantis in which you need to guide people stuck on the island to the surrounding ships while avoiding the nearby sea creatures-Sharks & Octopuses. After each turn some portion of the island gets submerged so you need to plan in such a way that maximum people reach the ship at the same time via boats or directly in order to gain maximum points. With over 5 maps each with 3 levels,the game will keep you busy for a long time. Only thing that this game is missing is multiplayer (which I believe the dev is working on) and little improvements on some animations like the octopuses (which seem to be too big) and background music. Overall if your fan of strategy/board based games, Volcano Island HD is a must have.
great game!!!
wow
the polish and feel of the game are just amazing.
it's running fast and during my first hour with the game i had no crash so far.the interface is very solid!!
now i'm going to dive deeper into the game and have much more fun!
A wonderful single player adaptation of a multiplayer turn-based strategy game.
A turn-based strategy board game based on a real board game, variously know as Survive! or Escape from Atlantis. The original game is a multiplayer game whereas this iPad optimized version is a single player adaptation. Your primary goal is to move everyone safely to the boats. Islanders can drown (non-swimmers if left alone) or be killed by shark or octopus. Your secondary goal is to chain multiple rescues to boost you scoring multiples. Each turn you get 3 moves plus bonus moves equal to the number of rescued people from the previous turn. After your moves, the shark and octopus gets to move one block. Also one slice of the island may disappear. The hexagon with more adjacent open sea will melt away first. A lifeboat, a shark, or an octopus may appear when that happens. Each hexagon or lifeboat can hold up to two people. You can pick which of the two islanders to move by dragging that individual. It is best to play the game to understand how everything works and formulate your own strategies.
This is a very polished game. The tropical themed music screams aloha. The graphics is nicely illustrated. The potentially unstable hexagon is only a tad darker than the stable ones, which in my opinion is not enough of a contrast. The entire game seems to be 960x640 rather than utilizing the entire 1024x768 iPad real estate. Hopefully the devs will find time to further optimise the HD version for the iPad by getting rid of the ugly black borders.
This paid version has 5 islands with 3 levels each. The difficulty goes up correspondingly, thereby providing hours upon hours of fun challenging strategy gameplay. I look forward to future updates with Game Center integration. Global leaderboard would be a no brainer. Achievements would add to the challenge. A multiplayer mode would complete the full adaptation to the original strategy board game.
