The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many players expressing frustration over the overwhelming number of ads and the frequent crashes that occur after watching them, often resulting in lost rewards. While some users appreciate the option to watch ads for bonuses, the overall sentiment leans towards the game being a cash grab, with high prices for in-app purchases and a heavy reliance on ads to progress, making it feel pay-to-win. Players have reported that the game often forces them to watch ads to complete daily tasks, but these ads frequently fail to function properly, leading to a frustrating experience.
“I think the game is really fun and unlike other games with in-app purchases, it's not pay to win.”
“This is an amazing game with good graphics and even if you don't do in-app purchases you can still do pretty well.”
“In-app purchases exist but you can play the game quite easily without it and still have fun.”
“The game crashes multiple times before I can obtain the reward, and I am forced to watch several advertisements to receive a single reward.”
“It's a ridiculous cash grab of a game with mountains of bugs.”
“The game is a massive pay to win and nothing but a cash grab compared to the original one they had.”

The story aspect of the game is generally appreciated for its connection to the Jurassic World franchise, featuring engaging missions and character interactions. However, players frequently express frustration with mission difficulty, particularly at higher levels, where tasks often require specific dinosaurs or resources that are hard to obtain without spending money. Additionally, technical issues such as game crashes and bugs hinder progress, making it difficult for players to fully enjoy the storyline and complete missions.
“I love the storyline and the characters.”
“The story line follows the movie about as well as any post-movie game.”
“Great game with great storyline, really excited to see the new creature in every stage and fight.”
“The missions have become unbearable.”
“The game was way better earlier before the amber market because it was easier to unlock all the creatures; also, the missions are so difficult now, previously the missions never had an objective to have hybrid creatures at a certain level. It is so frustrating to complete the mission even though I don't want that hybrid; I have to create it and level it up just to complete the mission and increase park level.”
“I can't play missions, evolve dinosaurs, or even feed them without issues.”

The grinding aspect of the game is widely criticized for being excessively tedious and time-consuming, often requiring players to invest significant hours to progress without spending money. Many users feel that the game heavily incentivizes microtransactions, making it difficult for free-to-play players to enjoy the experience fully.

“I'm all for grinding, but this is a waste of time and effort.”
“The prices for in-game content are absolutely ridiculous and are nowhere near worth the money. The easiest way to progress is to buy them; otherwise, it's hours of grinding for the smallest of things.”
“The grinding has become so horrendous and the prizes for winning the tougher fights are so terrible that it has caused me to no longer want to play and uninstall.”

The music in the game has received mixed feedback, with many players appreciating the variety and quality of the tracks, particularly during battles. However, a significant number of users report persistent issues with the game crashing when music plays, making it unplayable for some. Additionally, players express frustration over the inability to listen to their own music while playing, as the game automatically pauses external audio.
“The graphics and music are nice, and there's so much variety in dinosaurs.”
“The gameplay, graphics, and music are very well made.”
“Nice graphics and lovely music; video games for all the time and the dinosaurs are so realistic and a lot of fun and adventure with dinosaurs to play. It also contains battles in it.”
“There are signs it'll do this; however, I listen to Spotify while playing, and it'll always keep playing the music and the ad audio at once before crashing.”
“Used to love this game so much, sadly it's unplayable. Like many others, upon opening it, it crashes when the music starts. Yes, I have enough space on my phone, over 80GB left, and yes, I did tell my phone not to battery optimize it. Sadly, the devs just never fix it, and many of us are left with true disappointment.”
“Originally it was a fun game, but then it started crashing all the time, and also you cannot listen to music whilst playing as it auto pauses, and there is no setting I can find to turn it off.”

The humor in the game is described as a mix of absurdity and irony, with players finding amusement in the quirky graphics, unexpected dinosaur roars, and the over-the-top scenarios, such as inappropriate slapstick moments and exaggerated game mechanics. Many reviewers also highlight the comedic frustration of long loading times and the game's monetization strategies, which they find both laughable and frustrating. Overall, while the humor may not be universally appealing, it adds a unique charm to the gameplay experience.
“Dear creators, it's an incredible game with wonderful graphics, very interesting, funny, logical, and addictive.”
“Some of the dinosaur roars are hilariously off-base.”
“I think the game itself is very good, but I think your prize wheels are hilarious; they start to slow down and are going to land on something amazing, and then all of a sudden they speed up—it's a joke.”

“This is an amazing game, but one thing that really hurts me is I have an iPad with 4 years of Jurassic World progress, and I keep trying to go to the events. It just kicks me out of the game, and it made me cry after 4 years because it won't even let me battle.”
“Final straw was phone glitching and one touching buying a DNA pack for 25 bucks.”
