Hello Islanders!
Coral Island "Quality of Life" 1.1b update is finally released!
Here are all the new changes for our 1.1b Quality of Life update:
[b]New Cooking Show:[/b]
We’ve added a new cooking show hosted by Chef Sisca, airing every Friday on your in-game TV.
By watching, you’ll learn and unlock new cooking recipes, which can then be prepared in your kitchen at home.
[b]Goddess Daily Blessing:[/b]
Introducing the [b]Goddess Daily Blessing[/b], a feature that grants players one daily buff.
Buffs can improve your chances of catching insects, fish, or scavenging rare items, among other benefits.
To unlock this feature, complete four offerings. Once unlocked, visit the nearest fast travel point to access the [b]Goddess Blessing[/b] option (the second choice). This feature resets daily, so remember to visit the fast travel point each day to receive your blessing!
[b]Mystery Rocks:[/b]
[b]Mystery Rocks[/b] are a new type of debris found in the Starlet Mines and the Cave of Memories.
Breaking these rocks may yield ores, ore veins, seeds, rare fish, rare insects, or occasionally unleash monsters!
The number of Mystery Rocks that spawn per floor depends on the number of offerings made to the Goddess. For every two offerings, more Mystery Rocks will appear.
