In this day and age of zoo builders, Prehistoric Kingdom has captured me with its dedication and detail!! I was really eager to get this game after seeing how good the updates have shaped it to be, and the hype is deserved! I admit, I'm a noob at construction, but learning the tools didn't take me long, nor did figuring out the management system. While I can say there are bugs and plenty of ways this game can still be improved on, I'd say that it's VERY enjoyable and worth buying in its current state! The developers clearly care greatly about what they're doing, and every update brings something worth coming back to the game for! Also, I'm gonna state the obvious here: The models and animations of each species are AMAZING! But especially the models!! I truly appreciate this game for leaning into scientific accuracy with a hint of self-indulgent fantasy for some of the skins. Not to mention the level of effort put into the informative aspects of the game to read about every species and their locations, and how every species has such specific behaviors and requirements. It's so fascinating and fun, and I'm so happy we have a zoo game that actually thinks about the animals as ANIMALS! I'm truly in awe at the thought put into how different species interact with one another, and how some of them will form their own groups and have their own social hierarchies. I'm very pleased by the herding and baby guarding mechanics, too. It's super cool and cute seeing parents protecting their babies, and their babies following them around! I honestly hope we get more unique social animations and behaviors down the line (and also interactive toys that aren't just food sources, I must add). Over all, I'll give this an 8/10. It's worth the money, but do keep in mind it's still in early access and can have bugs sometimes. And JUST for fun, here's a checklist review: ---{ Price }--- ☐ It's free! ☑ Worth the price ☐ If it's on sale ☐ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ Audience }--- ☐ Baby's first video game ☐ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☐ Grandma ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☑ Beautiful ☐ Good ☐ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ Who needs eyes? ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☐ Check if you can run paint ☐ Potato ☑ Decent (if you can handle some lag) ☑ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ World/Map }--- ☐ A whole new world! ☐ Great for exploration ☑ Large and immersive ☐ Small and immersive ☐ Limited exploration ☐ Leaves more to be desired ☐ Little to no exploration value ☐ There is no map. ☑ You make your own world! ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ Gets the job done ☐ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't. ---{ Replayability }--- ☐ Every replay is a new experience! ☑ Playing it never gets old ☐ Good for a few binges ☐ Nice for killing time ☐ Not that much to come back to ☐ Repetitive ☐ Once and never again. ---{ Difficulty }--- ☐ Just press 'W' ☐ Easy ☑ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☑ Very good ☐ Good ☐ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Soundtrack }--- ☐ Masterpiece ☑ Memorable ☐ It's alright ☐ Could be better ☐ Did they even try? ☐ No soundtrack ---{ Grind }--- ☐ Nothing to grind ☑ Only if u care about leaderboards, ranks, and/or achievements ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☑ Average grind level (If you count the money you earn for your park) ☐ Too much grind ☐ You'll need a second life for grinding ---{ Story }--- ☑ No Story ☐ Some lore ☐ Average ☐ Good ☐ Lovely ☐ It'll replace your life ---{ Game Time }--- ☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☐ Short (Under 2 hours) ☐ Average ☐ Long ☑ To infinity and beyond ---{ Bugs }--- ☐ Never heard of ☐ Minor bugs ☑ Noticeable but not game breaking ☐ Can get annoying ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☑ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10

The devs added uniform dino growth, the dinosaurs don't get into boxing matches with each other, and the t rex doesn't look like it has fetal alcohol syndrome. 10/10

I have been following PK for almost it's full development cycle. I played a lot of the initial demo before hunting was taken out, and then played very little since the game went live on Steam. Not very long, perhaps 13 hours of gameplay. I never really touched it. Then Update 17 released that reintroduced combat and hunting, and I haven't touched another game since then, and have added 100+ hours of playtime. (Now over 300 as of this edit) The game acts as my screensaver. I've downloaded a few workshop maps that recreate ecosystems, and every so often when I'm working on X/Y/Z I just pop in, check populations, watch some animals, and then trim or bolster their numbers and rinse repeat. I will even leave my game running while I'm at work so I can see how things changed over 8 hours. Sleeping, going out, etc... the game is likely on. I'm going to be going out of town pretty soon and am kicking around the idea of letting the game run for 4-5 days unattended. The developers have communicated that this isn't going to be a playstyle they really cater to as opposed to people who are actually building parks, but there IS already a ton of value in the ecosystems/ formations that you are able to recreate with the smaller roster. The thing that separates this game from any others currently trying to lead the market on prehistoric animal park simulators is that the combat is not just largely canned animations that are the same every time. A hunt does not automatically end when the predator reaches their target, the predator damages the prey animal and sometimes will cause the prey to stagger or even collapse, where it can then secure the kill if repeat attacks don't outright dispatch their target. I only have two critiques now. One is the roster, which will obviously solve itself. Two is the rate of combat. In my Mammoth Steppe recreation I have noticed over the past 80+ hours that some herbivores will go on killing sprees of predators, and often times predators would hang around a dangerous area because the AI prioritized a carcass (That was sometimes inaccessible due to being too deep in water) or placed aggression towards another animal over eating/ drinking and dying of malnutrition. Again, according to the developers, I'm not exactly supposed to be playing the game this way, but it's literally endless fun watching natural recreations of scenes you watched in documentaries, or narrating the lives' of your animals like said programs did. Every moment is a story. With how long the game has been in active development, you're practically guaranteed to find the game in a better state than you bought it if you took a time machine to any point in the future. It's the best spiritual successor to those 2000s tycoon classics that many of us grew up with. Why are you even still reading this without having completed your purchase yet?

TRICKY ONE TO REVIEW, For me. i will update as the game progresses. its basically planet zoo mechanics, but dino's. Which is AWSOME. iv waited 38 years for a concept like this. pros - graphics and animal behaviour is excellent. beautiful game, easy to understand. the devo has clearly put years of there life into the background of the game which is simply awesome. bad bits - i think this is a one man crew, which is not a bad thing, the complexity of this game is unreal and the person in development should have a tap on the back and a well done son ! this game was released in 2022 and its still got basic bugs and poor micro mechanics such as finance and construction. now, the in game detail per animal, the information and the in game "warden" who foes deep into explaining the animals is just fantastic and a joy to listen to. this genre is my bread and butter for gaming and has been since the 90's. am supper excited to see how it develops, £23 is a steal to get into the game but, its not completely playable imo at the moment. however, that just might be my poor understanding of the mechanics, rushing, not spending time reading the information. i do think this developer is onto something here and this could make planet zoo look like sim city 2000

The dinosaur park game I've wanted ever since I was 11. When I was a kid, I played Zoo Tycoon Complete collection and Zoo Tycoon 2 Ultimate Collection, I loved those games and of course I loved making a dinosaur focused park. Dinosaurs have been a passion of mine for so long, When the Jurassic World games were announced I was excited but soon disappointed because it still wasn't exactly what I was seeking. Then came along Prehistoric Kingdom, a beautiful game where the dinosaurs actually feel like living, breathing animals and not these fantasy beings. The models are just gorgeous, the details are, ahhhhh, I don't have the words! I find myself watching these big creatures walk and just being mesmerised at how the artists depicted that they have weight to them, seeing the body ripple from each heavy step. Don't be put off from the early access part of this game, it's worth every single penny, you get regular updates, in depth updates! where you can see what is being worked on and what to look forward to in the future, you even see them talk about what parts of the process is being tricky and that's a dev team I love, it makes you feel like you're also a part of the process in some way. The best part is honestly their creature ageing system, it's so streamlined, it's truly a feat! Plus I love how they've added the choice where you can create lil creatures that stay in a younger form. This game does use a modular building aspect which I won't lie, is a little daunting at first, but I am slowly getting used to it. It is partly choice paralysis but they do provide prebuild prefabs for you, plus there's the workshop! Honestly, if there is any type of criticism I have for this game, is just that I'd love to see some more animal enrichment things and maybe some more small interactions and animations. Even then, I have a sense that this is something the devs would be looking into anyway. If you like dinosaurs, this is a game for you. I can't wait to see what else they bring to this game!
