About[]
Shugabush Island is an Island in My Singing Monsters that is primarily inhabited by the Shugafam, a type of Legendary Monster, and a few Natural Monsters. It is accessible at level 6, after purchasing Air Island. It was first released on December 10th, 2013 in Version 1.2.4.
Like Ethereal Island, Monsters on this Island can only be Teleported here from a Natural or Mirror Island once they are fed to Level 15. Teleporting will reset their levels back to Level 1, and turn the Monsters into eggs again. Teleportation is impossible to reverse, so the Monsters will permanently stay on Shugabush Island, unless sold.
Shugabush, which is bred on Plant Island (with Clamble and Bowgart), is the basis for breeding the rest of the Shugafam, and it can be teleported to Shugabush Island once it is fed to Level 15. All other Shugafam members are bred by combining Shugabush with a Natural Monster on Shugabush Island.
The Natural Monsters residing on Shugabush Island can be bought from the Shugabush Island Market, bred on their home Island and teleported to Shugabush Island (Natural or Mirror Islands only), or bred on Shugabush Island by breeding a Natural Monster already on the Island with Shugabush. Rare Monsters of the Natural Monsters on Shugabush Island can also be acquired in the same way, though only during certain promotions. Breeding Shugabush with a Common Monster may result in the Common Natural Monster, Shugabush itself, or the Rare version of the Natural Monster if that Rare Monster is available to Breed.
If a Monster is fed to Level 15 on Shugabush Island, it will appear in the "place" list on Gold Island. If the player attempts to place the Monster on Gold Island, they will get the message, "Because of conflicts in the interdimensional magic on Shugabush Island, this Monster cannot be placed on Gold Island." However, if Shugabush is fed to Level 15 on Plant Island, it may be placed on Gold Island.
Song[]
Composer(s): Dave Kerr, Kristian Bush (Shugafam), Tom Meikle (Viveine)
Shugabush Island's song is a remix of Love or Money, from the musician Kristian Bush. Like the original song, it plays at 89 beats per minute in the key of G major.
Shugabush Island has an ambience that consists of chirping birds. It shares this sound with Plant Island.
Song Table[]
This is a chart that shows where each Monster plays in the song. Each section is 8 beats long. The number next to each Monster indicates which track is being played at each part.
Indigenous Monsters[]
Eight of the Monsters on Shugabush Island (the Shugafam) have only the Legendary Element. However, all but Shugabush itself can be found only on this Island. Seven other Monsters on this island (Mammott, Potbelly, Oaktopus, Furcorn, Quibble, PomPom, and Deedge) have all 5 non-Fire Natural Elements, and they can live on the Natural Islands. The Seasonal Monster on this island, Viveine, has the Echoes of Eco Element.

Obstacles[]
- Main article: Obstacles
Removing the Obstacles from the Island earns the player Experience (), and it opens up space to place more Monsters, Decorations, or Structures. Removed Obstacles are not gone permanently; they can be bought back with Diamonds () under the Decorations section in the Market. In total, it costs 1,165,000 to remove all Obstacles from the Island.
Seasonal Events[]
- Main article: Seasonal Events
Echoes of Eco[]
During the holiday season of Echoes of Eco, Shugabush Island does not change, but does have access to a Seasonal. Echoes of Eco primarily happens on Amber Island.
- For 2023, the Echoes of Eco season was from April 19th to May 1st.
A special Seasonal Monster, the Viveine, is available for breeding and purchase in the Market during the Echoes of Eco season. It was first released on April 27th, 2022, but got added to Amber Island, as well as Shugabush Island, on April 19th, 2023. On Amber Island, it is obtained by buying a special Vessel on the market using Relics and revitalizing it. On Shugabush Island, it can be obtained either through breeding or by purchasing directly from the market using Diamonds, just like any other Seasonal. | |
A special Seasonal Monster, the Rare Viveine, is available for breeding or purchase in the Market during the Echoes of Eco season. Rare Viveine was released on October 25th, 2023. |
Breeding[]
On Shugabush Island, all Monsters can only be bred using a Shugabush + Natural Monster combination.
Shugabush Island Breeding Combinations:
- Shugabush + Mammott = Shugarock, Rare Mammott, and Epic PomPom
- Shugabush + Potbelly = Shugabass, Rare Potbelly, and Epic Deedge
- Shugabush + Oaktopus = Shugajo, Viveine, Rare Viveine, Rare Oaktopus, and Epic Mammott
- Shugabush + Furcorn = Shugabeats, Rare Furcorn, and Epic Potbelly
- Shugabush + Quibble = Shugabuzz, Rare Quibble, and Epic Oaktopus
- Shugabush + PomPom = Shugitar, Rare PomPom, and Epic Quibble
- Shugabush + Deedge = Shugavox, Rare Deedge, and Epic Furcorn
Castle Upgrades[]
Main Article: Castle
To be placed on an Island, each Monster requires a specific number of beds. For Natural Monsters, this is equal to the number of elements that Monster represents. The Shugafam each occupy three beds except for the Shugabush, which occupies two beds. Upgrade the Castle to unlock more beds.
Cost of each upgrade: Castle: Shugabush Island
Strategy[]
While the song of the Island is crucial, users may also want to use some of these numbers to help with planning which monsters to feed first and make 100% happy first, as well as plan frequency of coin collection. The numbers below are as follows:
Rate | Rate of income per bed at level 15 and at 100% happy |
Max | Maximum income per bed at level 15 |
Time | Time to maximum income at level 15 and at 100% happy (shown as Hours : Minutes : Seconds) |
It should be noted that Rate is halved and Time is doubled for 0% happy.
Monster | Rate | Max | Time | |

Version History[]
Upcoming Monsters[]
- Main article: Upcoming Features
Epic Viveine will be coming to Shugabush Island during the second Echoes of Eco event. Note: The Shugafam will likely not get Rare or Epic variants due to copyright issues.
Notes[]
- Like the Crystal Castle, Amber Castle, and the Composer Castle from the Gold, Amber, and Composer Islands respectively, the Shugabush Island Castle does not produce a bass sound, regardless of upgrades. This is because Shugabass plays the bass track instead.
- Because of their much higher buying price on Shugabush Island, the Natural Monsters should be bred or bought on the Natural Islands, leveled up to Level 15, and Teleported, rather than bought in the Market on Shugabush Island, wasting many Diamonds.
- However, if a Rare Natural is available in the StarShop, it can still be purchased from the StarShop on Shugabush Island for double its normal price. It is therefore recommended to purchase Rares on Shugabush Island with Starpower if available in the StarShop, though they can also be bred using a Common variant and Shugabush.
- Monsters obtained from the Colossal Conundrum can also be placed on Shugabush Island for free, which is arguably the most beginner-friendly way of populating the Island.
- Only monsters from the Natural or Mirror Islands can be teleported here. E.g., Oaktopus on Psychic Island at Level 15 cannot be teleported here. Although, it can be teleported to The Colossingum at Level 5.
- However, Viveine can still be teleported to Seasonal Shanty.
- Shugabush Island is the only Island that changes the designs of certain Monsters:
- Oaktopus on this Island, unlike those on other Islands, has a bird's nest on its head, since Version 1.3.2.
- Deedge on this Island, unlike those on other Islands, doesn't have snow on its fridges.
- Ever since Version 3.9.1:
- Furcorn on this Island, unlike those on other Islands, has Cold Island's Critters near its feet.
- Quibble on this Island, unlike those on other Islands, has Air Island's Critters at their pond.
- Upon the release of Faerie Island, a texture glitch occurred to Rare Quibble, but only on Shugabush Island. This glitch caused most of its keys to turn white, like a normal Quibble. This glitch has since been fixed.
- Shugabush Island and Plant Island have the same ambience noise.
- Shugabush Island is the only Island that is named after a Monster. (Technically, Wublin Island is named after the Wublins, but not one Monster in particular, and the same idea applies to Celestial Island.)
- Shugabush Island is the only Island in the game where Shugabush itself is available, but does not sing, nor vocalize, in any way.
- Shugabush Island is the only breeding Island that contains all the five Natural Elements at once, with these being Plant, Cold, Air, Water, and Earth. However, it doesn't contain all of the Monsters with these elements.
- The two moons visible in the background are the Human World and the Monster World's moons, as mentioned in the March 20th, 2020 MSM Live stream.
- Mythical Island has reused the breeding mechanic used on Shugabush Island, where one notable Monster (Shugabush and Cataliszt) is required for every breeding combination.
- Shugabush Island is one of two Islands that lacks the Single-Element Monsters of some of the elements found on the Island. The other Island to do this is Amber Island.
- Coincidentally, both of these islands have Viveine as a Seasonal Monster.
- Shugabush Island's song took the longest time out of any other Island to update, and it finally had an update for the first time in 10 years, with the addition of Viveine to the Island.
- This is most likely because Shugabush Island is based off of a copyrighted song called “
- Shugabush Island's song is listed in the game's credits as "Love or Money (Monster Remix)".
- It was believed that due to the song of Shugabush Island being a remix of a real, copyrighted song, the Island's song couldn't be changed without renewing/modifying a legal agreement. But in My Singing Monsters Live, Monster-Handler Matt confirmed that Kristian Bush had approved of Viveine going to the Island.
- However, Shugabush Island still won't be added to the My Singing Monsters Soundtrack, due to Kristian Bush agreeing to only have the song be in-game, despite the addition of Viveine.
