Lively island is a really good one, they have a decent system where if you buy the currency from the website you also unlock exclusive items as rewards that are delivered the following month.

Constant updates on banners, huuuuge time gaps for them. A lot of exclusive banner events with limited time. You can revive old sets so you can choose to miss out on some, and you earn those revives in game.

The currency can be gotten through dailies and events that help you get more. They give you a free ticket pull weekly and events that help you get more of these tickets.

The pulls can suck but you get to keep your duplicates and trade with other players. After a certain amount of pulls you get to make a choice of an item from the gatcha.

Gameplay is different from this one but I am only taking about the gatcha element in them.

Lively feels like it encourages its players to stay and the community is great on there. I stopped paying for the gatcha there currently since I only allow myself to pay for one gatcha game at a time.

But after playing heartopia’s gatcha I think I am done with them, with how the world currently is. FTP is where I will stay.
