Twelve hungry ways to play
Every dinosaur is its own kit. A Tyrant flattens mercenaries underfoot; a Raptor plays the sneaky killer, closing in when nobody is watching. Spitters fight from range, Pteranodons swoop, and each species has unique attacks and traits to learn. The Roar Ability is your trump card: used at the right moment, it tips a fight before it starts. Small classes reward patience and trickery, big ones reward brute timing, and switching between them feels like playing a different game.
Five humans with heavy firepower
On the other side of the food chain sit five mercenary classes, each with its own weapons and utility gadgets. You decide whether to hold a choke point with sustained fire, flank with something explosive, or keep the team alive from the back. The arsenal is built for sending bloodthirsty beasts back to the Cretaceous, and it does the job with satisfying, arcade-style violence. Watch your back: a raptor you never heard is usually the last thing you meet.
A lobby full of friends and teeth
This is a game made for joining a lobby with people and jumping straight into rounds. Team up with friends to reach rescue while the dinosaur side does everything in its power to make sure the humans never leave the island. Prefer co-op? Take on a never-ending onslaught of AI dinosaurs together. Rounds are short, sides are clear, and the mayhem a full lobby produces is the whole point: plans fall apart, someone gets eaten, everyone laughs, one more go.
What should you know before playing?
Can you play it solo?
Yes, partly. There is a co-op mode against waves of AI dinosaurs, so you can play without facing other people. The core of the game, though, is PvP between humans and dinosaurs, and that is where it shines.
Is it hard to learn?
There is a real learning curve, especially on the dinosaur side. Each species handles differently, and smaller classes like the Raptor reward waiting for the right moment rather than charging in. Once the controls click, the game moves fast and rewards it.
What game modes are there?
Several: team deathmatch, Get to the Chopper, Capture the Egg, Survival against AI dinosaurs, and Free Roam, where an invisible raptor stalks humans or a group hunts it down. In practice, team deathmatch is where most of the action happens.
