Pre-stage 3 Note: Due to the restrictions on the Bowling Center and some troubles with "Hiring the Architect" it is highly recommended to either destroy or place in storage any Bowling Centers on the first half of the island before completing Stage 2 and entering Stage 3. Placing them in storage may even still cause problems with the quest. You can start building the new Bowling Center when you know you are less than 12 hours (Construction Time) away from the end of Stage 2. The only restriction is that it must complete building while you are in Stage 3 of the upgrade. Similarly, the new European country house can be started inside of 4 hours of the end of Stage 2.

Third upgrade for the Bridge
To buy land expansion 11 and beyond on the new part of the island you need to complete this upgrade for the bridge. You can only start upgrading the Bridge once you have purchased land expansion 10 on the new part of the island.
The third upgrade for the bridge is not implemented yet. The game's source files hold configuration files for this, but for some unknown reason the devs have decided to password-encrypt those. The names of those files do however provide some useful hints.
Besides the ridiculous amounts of $ and energy zaps that will no doubt be required, these are the quests we could find:
First stage quests
- Receive something for collecting cash from India Hotels.
- Gather another drawing, consisting of 8 pieces. Pieces 3 and 4 can be found while cleaning, and pieces 5, 6, 7, and 8 can be found at Leonids shop. Unknown at the moment where you can get pieces 1 and 2.
Second stage quests
- Receive something for collecting cash from Golf clubs.
Third stage quests
- Collect a certain amount of hammers , probably by repairing Hotel Mesurys and/or Moon robot attractions like before.
- Collect a certain number of stone blocks by destroying something. The bubbles might also have something to do with this.
Fourth stage quests
- Something with making medium scrolls in the Wonder of the World.
Fifth stage quests
Other upgrade quests
Besides the unconfirmed upgrade quests for the third upgrade, there are some other quests of which it is unsure to what stage they belong. They might as well be meant for the unimplemented Pharos upgrades. But just to prepare you for what might be coming up:
- Something with lobsters .
- Something with anvils .
- Something with pickaxes . Probably for collecting stones for the third stage, but not certain.
- Something with upgrading Extra pizza places.
- Something with upgrading Sushi bars.
- Something with destroying Solar power plants.
Tips
- Buildings can be moved over the river by moving them to the lower or upper border of the screen. This works also for water buildings and the Wonder of the World.
- Buildings that are already on your island will count when you reach a certain stage, so there is no need to demolish and rebuild them unless stated otherwise.
- Magazines , Bronze Statuettes, Silver Vases and Golden Cups will only appear in the top spot of the shop. To increase the odds of getting these items to appear you should only buy the top spot item every time.
- Drawing pieces will only appear in the bottom spot of the shop. To increase the odds of getting a drawing piece to appear you should only buy the bottom spot item every time.
- Magazines are expensive but Leonids shop only replaces items if you have not bought any. If you need more time to gather the resources to buy a magazine that is on sale buy a different item and when the shop refreshes that item will be replaced and the Magazine will still be there. Ideally buy items that only cost a few shells.
- Forced App Crash cheat does not work anymore at Leonid's Shop since version 2.2.6.
- When nearly finished with a stage, look forward to the next stage. That may give you some time plan what you need to build or collect.
- Donate money every day to the idol, because the shells, pearls and golden rings are required in very large numbers in the later stages of the upgrades.
Turn off graphics so that you can donate to the Idol without lag. Graphics can be turned off from Additional services > Options > Graphics. After completion, you can turn it on.
