I turned on the legendary Jurassic World soundtrack in the background. Then I dug and dug and dug, and before I knew it, I'd been playing non-stop for an hour. If you're interested, it's an absolutely fantastic game. The only issue is the car controls; otherwise, I enjoyed it immensely. I'd play this game for 100 hours; I highly recommend it.

got bored quickly, was not my type, but in general nice game, lots of grinding, for me, too much :D

Great Dinosaur game that I would like to see expanded upon in this or a future game. Suggestions: - More Dinosaurs obviously and at least one Sauropod. - The ability to assemble your skeletons without the highlighted area showing where each bone goes. - An Auto assemble once you have already put together a Dinosaur of that species. - Discovering a new species since this is every Paleontologists dream. Allowing you to name it. Nothing crazy though like a Theropod bigger then T-Rex. - Different size species. Maybe you could find the biggest one ever of a species!? And/or each skeleton you find is of a random size. This would give a good reason to play a new game. To go for the really big one! - Not always finding a complete skeleton as that rarely happens. Having to order or create missing parts.

Its a shame this game basically seems to have been abandoned. Its a bit repetitive and doesn't have NEARLY the content that it could have. But its an interesting concept that could be so much more than what it is now.
