The verdict
A beautiful, chill dragon sim with great animations and a friendly PvE community, but thin on content and heavily monetized. Skip it if you want real gameplay or solo depth.
Great for
Dragon lovers who want a social, relaxed PvE hangout, nesting for skins and flying with friends
Main risk
Very little to do beyond growing, nesting and chatting, with dragons and skins behind DLC
What players love
Beautiful graphics and animations

Mentioned in ~1 in 19 positive reviews
“Nesting to get better dragons is ingenious because now you actually have to interact with other players to get good stats or cool skins or both”
