In Family Island, decorations are not just about enhancing the aesthetic of your home island—they can also be functional, offering useful resources like energy, eggs, seashells, and feathers. This guide will explore what decorations are, how to collect and use them, and what to do when their benefits run out.
What Are Family Island Decorations?
Decorations in Family Island serve two purposes: to beautify your island and, in some cases, to provide free resources. Certain decorations can give you energy, eggs, seashells, or feathers, which help you progress in the game. These items can be collected from special event or festival islands and are sometimes offered for free, while others need to be purchased with rubies. However, there is a limit to how many times you can gather resources from each decoration.
The Role of Decorations in Family Island
At their core, decorations are primarily for customizing and personalizing your Home Island. Some special decorations, however, generate free resources like energy for a limited time. Once they have provided all their available resources, they become purely decorative items, adding visual appeal to your island.
How to Obtain Decorations in Family Island
There are several ways to collect decorations in the game:
- Festival Islands: Many decorations can be found on event or festival islands. You may earn them as rewards for completing specific quests or purchase them using rubies.
- Event Quests: Decorations can also be given as rewards for completing certain quests during events.
- Rubies: Some premium decorations must be purchased with rubies.
Collecting Decorations from Event Islands
When exploring festival islands, you may come across decoration items and energy-generating decorations. To collect them, follow these steps:
- Clear the path leading to the decoration.
- Tap the shopping cart icon above the item.
- Return to your Home Island.
- A new decoration window will appear.
- Tap the “SET UP” button to place the item on your island.
- Alternatively, you can select “Keep in storage” to set up the item later. This option stores the decoration in the storage area (bottom right corner, under the shopping cart icon).
Energy-Generating Decorations in Family Island
Some decorations are especially valuable because they generate energy. Examples include:
- Amphora of Plenty Energy Generator
- Home Theater Energy Generator
- Totem of Happiness
- Watcher Totem
These decorations can provide energy as long as they are active. Once they run out of energy, they become regular decorative items.
What to Do When Energy Decorations Stop Working
Energy-generating decorations in Family Island have a limited charge, meaning they eventually stop producing energy. You can check their remaining energy by tapping on the decoration. Once the energy supply is exhausted, the item becomes a standard decoration.
At this point, you can either leave the decoration on your island or move it into storage. To store it, tap and hold the item, then click the shopping cart icon to move it to your warehouse.
Final Thoughts
Decorations in Family Island are more than just ornamental; they can offer valuable resources like energy and other items. However, once their benefits are depleted, they still serve a purpose by beautifying your island. Hopefully, this guide helps you better understand how to use and manage decorations in Family Island.
