What does the Island Newspaper Do?

Announces Seasonal Events

As Seasonal Events occur throughout the year, the Island Newspaper offers a reminder of ongoing seasonal events! These Seasonal Stories usually appear at the top of the Island Newspaper so they are hard to miss.

Automatically Documents Notable Events

Your Island Newspaper will automatically log and publish some of the most notable and fun events and occurrences while you play.

This allows players a chance to look back on their past activities and to reminisce the different activities they did on a certain day.
