The idea of dinosaurs bum-rushing a base seemed hillarious to me. 124 hours in, lots of fun. Game design seemed to focus on quality rather than adding units/buildings just to do it. We know how that goes when there are just different colors of things that all do the same stuff. I do kind of wish where was a big more variety with the dinosaurs. Maybe some units with different kinds of guns to counter different dino strength/weaknesses. Interesting mechanics with water, air, and land. Great idea of meta progression across gameplay sessions. Some games are worse than I thought they would be. This one is definitely better than I thought it was going to be.

Cons: [b]#1.[/b] Move+attack is buggy and the units don't actually attack when in range of the enemies [b]#2.[/b] Tutorial is trash [b]#3.[/b] Multiple ranged attackers will attack a single target instead of multiple targets, which means that units with non-instant ranged attacks, are far inferior to instant attack units [b]#4.[/b] Buildings with range-auras cannot overlap AT ALL [b]#5.[/b] Can't rotate screen, so often can't see where to build exactly or you'll not notice enemies behind trees [b]#6.[/b] ZERO information on difficulty differences [b]#7.[/b] Can't see the attack/range/hp/etc. of units you want to buy/train before training them [b]#8.[/b] The game is for sale in places that commit crimes against humanity, like Izrael and Ruzzia. In summary, this game is just far worse than "They are Billions" or "Dream Engines: Nomad Cities" in all conceivable aspects. These devs could possibly fix #1, #3 and #4 with a bit of a rebalancing of the units/buildings and that would atleast make the game playable, but the game still wouldn't come close to the amount of content and polish that the two other games have, which means that these devs would have to dramatically drop the price o…

I'm amazed this got a "Full Controller Support" badge. This game has nearly zero controller compatibility. If you're buying in hopes to play with a gamepad, you'll be thoroughly disappointed.

It's one of those reviews that couldve been neutral For me it scratched that They are Billions PVE itch, but barely. It has all the mechanics off basebuilding and preparing for a wave for dino's, but that's basically it. The gameplay still feels a bit beta, no real story or whatever, you just pick a level and go. After you are done you pick another. So after a few maps its more of the same and i dont feel like doing another round of that (for now).

Awesome game so far. Challenging but good. Its like C&C but with dinosaurs. Hopefully will get a bit more selection over time and maybe even skirmishes one day like Red Alert had.

RTS plus Dinosaurs I'm sold. I hope to see match duration adjustments. Each match is at least 40-50mins long so the grind can be too much for me. Super fun game overall.
