Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
They shove paid options in your face all the time, one of them is borderline necessary to keep up with other players progression. Theres nothing engaging about it either all the battles happen automatically. And its kind of like clash of clans where it takes 1 million years to build something. No fun really, and they supposedly use stolen assets from a Jurassic Park game so theres that.
When we finished the game we get to still fight it lets you do what ever you want.
Complex Dino game which can be a lot of fun if you have the right skills and abilities to win.
Is Ceratosaurus in the game if not please add also add Cenozoics like mammoths or megalania.
Its so addicting and so much fun to play with dinosaurs in the game and play with the real humans from the movie.
We have played this game many times before and going to play it again.
Its good, but its totally a rip off of Jurassic World the game.
Ok so every single second it shows us what to do like bro we know how to do it just let it be a simple tutorial and then boom your done its basically doing everything for us if you fix this it would be 4 to 5 stars.
Enjoying the game, but the update will not go past 30%. We cant report to customer service because it wants our player id, which we cant get since it wont load.
We have to admit Im hooked day one and we havent turned it off for almost 3 hours now! Definitely give this game a shot, you wont regret it.
We thought this would be a bad game its not its a great won love to play this the creator u did awesome on this and do u play Roblox and whats ur username.
There is no ads no glitches and no low bad graphics you will love this game when you play it.
This game is sooo addictive and fun to play. Definitely challenges you with regard to strategy and planning, but its still fun.
Ive been playing the game for a min and today we went to go open the game and it will load to 100% but after that it want load our game in please fix this we love this game thanks.
This game is SO much fun we literally spend so much time on it every day the digging tycoon minigame event is super fun. We love how its so easy to get rewards and resources which helps make this game not really pay-to-play which is a must imo. A lot of games make you spend so much money to get anywhere with them but ive had to spend very little money on this game. The players are pretty nice too especially the ones in our alliance! Really recommend this game. Love the little dino facts too! Great game for anyone who loves dinosaurs.
Aside from all the reviews that are obviously from small children with bad attention spans from the fact the talking raptor 5 minutes in is revealed to be a guy that has a tamed raptor with a speaker on it connected to him, the weird brontosaurus talking points, and the instant deletes from being bored 2 minutes in, Ill say what the game is cause anyone that knows the advertisement for these games coming in from the ads knows theres a catch. Here it is. The game is just a copy paste idle war base builder game just with stolen Jurassic World evolution + alive models. Yes, theres a map that has every players base that can be raided, and the game is simply made to pander to high spenders to constantly raid and loot other players hard earned work. Other than there being dinosaurs theres nothing that really separates it other than it is slightly friendlier to new players + dinosaurs. But its just a boring idle war base builder thats churned out to make big bucks. Even if you like these type of games, we wouldnt put too much time into it cause its most likely going to shut down if Universal gets wind of the clear rip off dinosaur models. 2 stars, would do one but at least it is somewhat friendly to free to play people for this genre, but thats such a low bar that its still not that great.
Its easy at the start not complicated and fun.
It is called apatosaurus not brontosaurus because it uses the jw apatosaurus model, make parasaurolophus around the size of the stegosaurus because it is too small that it compares in size with the stigymoloch and dryosaurus. The spino looks like if oxalaia and sigilmassasaurus had a baby but we like it anyways done with part one. The difference between the accurate apatosaurus and the accurate brontosaurus is that apato has a chunky neck and brontosaurus has a slight thinner neck and both have the flat diplodocus like head and both have whiplash tail but it is not for defence it will break on impact.
This game is really good even though it doesnt have aquatic dinos The game is so good. We really recommend it. Ignore all those bad reviews. This is the best game Ive ever played. Its relatable to Jurassic World the game but its not a knock off. We also have some recommendations please add aquatic dinos Im going insane because no mosasaurus.
Been down since the update with no repair update from developer. Pathetic.
We love the game. But after playing like 2 days it wont let us in. Now it says failed to obtain server file. Just sad. We actually enjoyed this game and now it dont work.
Been loving this game since we got it, but it hasnt let us sign in all day today and the same error message keeps popping up?? Anyone else.
Game is great but has issues to server so cant play hope we dont have to restart all over.
Was doing good for a few hours. Turned the game off until the next day when we went to go play got a Network Failure failed to obtain server version file. Been like that all day. Deleted the game redownload hoping to fix, nope. Fix that problem maybe we will play again.
We are trying to get onto the game to play but when its loading in it says failed to obtain server version file. We reset our phone and reinstall the app and it still says the same thing we dont know what to do to get back into the game its like after the new update wont let us play at all and we love this game. What do we need to do to get this fixed so we can play again.
Its a real fun game its a lot of different modes and a twist on the builder game be careful of update they seem to break game and it no longer works now hopefully they can get it fixed.
FAILED TO OBTAIN SERVER VERSION FILE Would love to try this game, but initial download wouldnt load, removed and tried to download again same issue.
Only been playing this game for four days now and it wont let us login. Network Error: Failed to obtain server version file. Spent money on this and cant even play. If we delete it, all our progress will be lost and Ill have wasted our money. Worked fine this morning, but now all of sudden it wont let us login.
Game is fun but like any other game the prices are getting a little outrageous as the game goes on to complete a certain area.
This is a different fun game not bad having fun.
We found this game through an add but we got say quite different from other game we have played.we had played many of these types games and they feel the same but this one is different because they have so many different types of game mechanics . We think others should get this game.
A pretty chill but fast moving game.
Well first the game looks nothing like the ads, in the ads its this cool view of all these Dinos that have all these cool mechanics but when you get into the game its just this tiny little guy talking to a dinosaur which is talking back to him which is kinda dumb but then again you shouldnt trust ads because games like these lie to get you to download it. So as soon as there was a talking dinosaur we deleted the game. Conclusion: if you want a cool game that looks good and is fun dont download this, if you want a game that your gonna play for about 10 min then sure give it a try. (we would give this 1 star but we played up until the talking Dinosaur which is like 5 min into game so we didnt play enough to give it such a low rating so 2 star is what Im going with) we would say not to download this game.
The models in this game is straight out of Jurassic park and world so that is a bit frustrating.
This game looks way worse than the adds.
We downloaded it and it took for ever to load and leave it kicked us out and wouldnt let us play so we deleted it and tried again and it didnt even re-download wouldnt recommend AT ALL.
Completely different game from the ADs. Just another boring idle game.
Activate VIP is an automatic 1 star and delete app. It does not balance anything and should be free!!!!! Game had so much potential and maybe will return if they change VIP to free.
Clearly a lot of work has been put into this game, and it fills a niche. Our main concern with the game is that there is too much going on, and Im not sure what Im suppose to work towards. Additionally, we dont feel like many of the features, items and activities were properly explained in regards to their purpose in the game. We kind of found ourselves just clicking through things a lot of the time. It seemed like the devs were trying to do too much, which took away from the idea of a centralized goal. We think this is a trap that far too many games fall into. The devs want to keep improving the game, so they add more and more features. Eventually the game becomes so complex that new users have an incredibly hard time learning and adjusting to what the game is supposed to be. We feel that this game has already begun to fall into that trap way too early on in the games life (as far as we know, this game is a fairly new one). Our recommendation for you is to slow down, make sure each feature is developed and explained, remove features that take focus away from the main idea of the game, and build from there. Is the game primarily a war game? Is its main idea the colloseo progression? Is the main idea park expansion? Is the main idea to capture and level up your Dinos? Is the main idea to find and level up the heroes? Is the main idea to be a park manager? Is the main idea to eventually defeat some sort of dino boss (something that seemed to be implied by the T Rex tease in the beginning, which was resolved very quickly)? Perhaps if youre the dev and reading this, youre telling yourself that these questions are all tied together! And that these activities are all related to a main goal – and how am we, the reviewer, not getting that? And our point would be that it was never made clear to us how these are tied together. Perhaps one of the questions we asked is the main goal and the others are all related to that main goal. But this was never made clear in the game. They all just seemed disjointed. A purely sandbox style game without a direction can only go so far unless youre terraria or something – but even with those games, there is a general linear objective that you follow. Please dont take offense to this criticism bc we genuinely want this game to be able to fill a dino game niche.
How do you retrieve an account? Went to unlink from one device to find out it unlinks on other devices so much progress lost. Tried going through game to contact but useless hit contact doesnt let you type. Need help.
Basically we never understood these types of games but Im a dinosaur fan so we couldnt slip up on this what we got was amazing although some minor problems one of them being do you really have to pay a dollar just to add a photo we know you need money but doing that just isnt the case fam! And we feel like some things should be something to work towards look Im not that deep into the game just yet to tell how we feel exactly but we have to say its a masterpiece in every way thanks.
This game is very interesting, it reminds us of the Jurassic movie, there are many dinosaurs in it, and people and dinosaurs are combined into partners. It's a genius idea. You can also anesthetize and capture dinosaurs and raise them.
We were playing for the first time, when all of a sudden the main character said brontosaurus you guys used the wrong model thats a apatosaurus they are in the same family but wrong dinosaur.
Its great we like that its not pay to win good game keep it up.
We absolutely love this games story and the layout of the map. We love history and dinosaurs play a key part in our interests. We see our favorites and we get the exciting feeling of capturing them/nurturing. This is the only dinosaur game we have found that has it all. Highly recommend for a fun relaxing game.
Its good one of the best things we have played.
We played it but our game did kind of bug and stopped at the carelessness area because the color size was white theres a plan for a bit we kept moving around but it was fine we are a fan loaded it and everything is going better again. The only problem is theres just bugs we know the bugs arent that bad but sometimes at the loading can take forever or the game just freezes.
Ad is exactly as the game!!!! Maybe even better. We like this game yes its premise is the same as other games but somehow different. Love this game.
It was fun really really fun to play especially with the T Rexis. There should be a way to where you can have different dinosaurs though for your characters Naches that once you start out with so like the dinosaurs you get, you can switch out.
For one this is a good game it just have a few glitches. For one the app crashes and freezes up a lot. The damage ratio is horrible. People that is way weaker do more damage during hunting trap and other events. And the damage mileage on Dinos is ridiculous this should be adjusted. More event please other than that good job on this game.
