Reviews
- Lots of fun, challenging, and the prehistoric setting is great.
- Easy to learn but involves some thought with the strategy.
- The tribal feature connects you to other players.
- Constantly bombarded by 'go buy something' windows.
- The interface is overloaded with specials and click prompts.
- The balance is absent; lower-tier players are constantly attacked by higher-tier players.

“Tedious and time-consuming.”
“The leveling up is tedious and for battle you definitely need to purchase otherwise you can't win a single battle.”
“Things are way over the top just to level anything when it comes to resources needed, so most of your game time is either spent begging or farming, unless you pay cash to waste the fun of actual gaming.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its fitting nature and addictive quality, while others criticize it for being either absent or poorly executed. There are calls for more engaging sound elements, particularly during loading screens and gameplay, as the current audio experience feels lacking. Additionally, concerns about originality arise, with accusations of using music from other games.
“Great graphics, unique flavor, fitting music...and frequent and unique events.”
“The story, design, music, and mini games are addictive.”
“I know this is just early access, but the title screen and some other areas could use music or voice acting to improve the loading screen and playable area. It's too quiet. It's a beautiful game overall, but it's just missing sound.”
“Bad music... good game, poor graphics... too slow on game progress. A game needs to be new and exciting every time. This needs more in the fact that it needs less... complicated... too many details, hard to figure out all things. Good game...”
“Case in point, in the ad where they show the level 10 barbarian trying to netfish and the level 30 arch chief spearfishing, the music used for the arch chief segment was stolen from the Ragnarok Online BGM.”

Character development in the game is criticized for its reliance on stereotypical 80s tropes, featuring overly muscular male characters and scantily clad female figures, which some players find to be a reflection of toxic masculinity. While the artwork and character designs are praised, the overwhelming visual stimulation detracts from meaningful character engagement.
“Nice job on the artwork and character designs as well.”
“All of the character designs are basically a peak 80's toxic masculinity wet dream. All the girls are scantily dressed bimbos, and all the men are muscular hunks. There is so much overstimulation that it's difficult to know what you're supposed to do.”
“The character development feels shallow and one-dimensional, making it hard to connect with anyone in the game.”
“I was really disappointed with how the characters evolved; their arcs were predictable and lacked depth.”
