The verdict
A charming cartoon dinosaur sandbox that is abandoned, nearly empty of players, and often won't let you pick a dino. Skip unless you want a free curiosity to try with friends.
Great for
Dinosaur fans with a few friends who want a cheap, relaxed chat-and-roam sandbox
Main risk
Empty servers and abandonment leave nothing to do, and dino selection may not load
What players love
Very cheap or free
