How to wake up Gulliver

You can understand if Gulliver has landed on your island or not thanks to home screen.

Remember that Gulliver is a heavy sleeper. If you try to talk to him for the first time, you may notice that he will respond by snoring. To be able to wake him up you simply have to keep talking to him.

If you see that he will not really want to get up, insist in turn. Unfortunately there is no exact number of attempts to wake him up. You may need 5 as well as 10. But rest assured that with a little patience, the little bird will wake up and understand that he's in trouble.


How and where to find the communicator components

The task will be none other than find his communicator. After waking up, Gulliver will be scared because he will not be able to find it, so you, as good citizens, will have to give him a hand. A hand in a manner of speaking, since you will be alone in this undertaking. In fact, the seagull will not accompany you and will be intent on seeing the beauties of your island while you have to be patient and dig.


To be able to look for the pieces of the communicator you will have to sift through the whole beach of your island. Obviously this indication will make you think that you have to dig every inch of the shoreline, but in reality it will be enough for you to search some dark patches near the sea.

The pieces, however, unfortunately, they will never appear all together, so you will have to try to take them one at a time. It also doesn't mean that there is what you are looking for under the sand. Many times you will find a shell or other materials.

Also pay attention to deliver the piece you found immediately. If you don't, the next day it will turn into a rusty piece, then you'll have to look for it again.


If you help Gulliver for good 70 times the radiating power,, you will get one from him golden shovel, the (almost) indestructible variant of the digging tool.


All of Gulliver's gifts

Once you have delivered all the pieces of the communicator, Gulliver will pay homage to you with a gift taken during one of his travels around the world. The gift will be delivered to you randomly in yours post office box.

Gulivarrr: who he is and how to wake him up

With the update Summer A new character has been introduced: Gullivarrr. This mysterious character will strongly remember Gulliver, with some physical differences and a pirate outfit. Despite this, the dynamics for which he will arrive on the island and what you will have to do to assist him will remain extremely similar.


You will only be able to unlock the encounter if you have purchased one wetsuit, since you will also need it to be able to complete the assignment that will ask you. To wake the pirate, all you have to do is keep talking to him.

How to find the pieces of the communicator… again

Even with a different dress, the problems remain the same. This time you will have to find the pieces of the communicator not on the beach, but in the ocean that surrounds your island and which you can access.

Once the wetsuit is equipped, dive into the sea and look for some bubbles. These will signal a piece of the communicator or an aquatic animal, so don't give up and keep looking for the 5 pieces that make it up.
