Well, it sure is a departure from the relatively smooth progression of growing castles until now. It doesn't look that horribly out of place on Ethereal Island, being sort of the same genre as the native rocks and trees. Plus that island may be the one that needs the most added beds. And it sure improves the look of Earth Island, which is depressingly dark and ugly, and desperately needs some brightening. Otherwise, I agree with you, and I'll not be upgrading my castles on any other island.

And I think it is kind of cheap for the developers to reuse an existing design with only a change in color, rather than give us something that is clearly a step up and would inspire us players to say "Wow that is truly the best!" rather than ... well ...

Do not forget (even though for most of us it is in the distant past) the extreme ugliness of the 'starter' castle made of sticks and mud, blech! So Paradise Castle is not the ulgliest of the bunch IMHO.

I do agree with you that the FP is way cool, I have 3 so far and just may end up with an entire patch of them (now that I can, with more beds ).
