The game's story is largely criticized for its lack of depth and clarity, with players noting that it fails to provide a compelling narrative or context for the mutated dinosaurs and quests. Many reviewers express frustration over the absence of engaging missions and a coherent plot, leading to a monotonous experience that lacks motivation for progression. Overall, the consensus is that the game needs a more developed storyline and improved gameplay mechanics to enhance player engagement.
“It even has a plot about these mutation pods, and a page you can view to see the stats of the different dinos.”
“I can see this game being a good game once a story or something is added, the controls are overhauled and the game is made a bit harder.”
“You are a dino and complete quests to unlock other maps and other dinos to complete quests in/with.”
“There's no story.”
“We get no story, no idea why the world is the way it is, how the dinos mutated ('it's a poison' is not an interesting answer), or any kind of tasks to complete to progress.”
“Pretty boring after about 10 mins, needs a deeper story to it or more stuff to do.”

The gameplay is currently in a developmental stage, with many mechanics needing improvement, such as the collision system and fighting mechanics. While the game shows potential and features polished graphics, players find the controls clunky and the overall experience lacking in purpose and engagement. Suggestions for enhancing gameplay include adding guilds and more incentives to create a more immersive experience.
“Great graphics, gameplay, and don't even get me started on the dinosaur designs and physics.”
“Gameplay: you play as a dinosaur and have to fight, eat, and drink.”
“It is clearly in the developmental stage and has a lot that needs to be fixed in the mechanics.”
“The potential for this game to be fun and interesting isn't lost, but updates to the lore, collision system, fighting mechanics, and implementing something that makes the game feel otherwise engaging.”
“The game makes good use of the Unity engine and it's a polished looking free game, no doubt about that, but the clunky controls and lack of gameplay really drags it down.”
