The game's story has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its interesting plot and solid foundation, while others find it predictable and lacking depth. Critiques include issues with story progression being hindered by player actions, such as killing key characters, and a desire for a more expansive lore. Overall, while some players enjoyed the narrative enough to complete the game, they noted significant bugs and a need for polish.
“There is an interesting plot that starts to develop from the get-go.”
“The idea of the storyline and combination of survival is awesome.”
“Awesome game with a great storyline; I would recommend this game to everyone I know.”
“Getting story blocked if you kill a dino you were supposed to use in a different way.”
“A major rule of telling an interactive story is to not lock story progression behind a single point of failure - either have it so the T-Rex can't be killed at this point, or have some other way to open the tunnel up in case the player does kill it.”
“This game does not really have any story; I have played this over and over again and I still did not get it.”

The graphics of the game are generally praised for their beauty and impressive quality, with many users highlighting stunning visuals and fluid animations. However, there are notable concerns about glitches and inconsistencies, suggesting that while the graphics are appealing, they are not fully polished and may detract from the overall experience. Overall, the visuals are a strong point, but the game still requires further refinement to reach its full potential.
“The game is fun and has very good graphics, fluid gameplay, and a lot of collecting resources and materials to evolve your weapons.”
“The attack animations look good and the game overall has impressive graphics.”
“In Reptiles: In Hunt (which is an indie game), you are greeted by stunning visuals that made my graphics card cry.”
“Graphics are not stellar, but you're playing for the adventure and fighting dinos where there is plenty of.”
“I would prefer if nothing else, the dinos can get a graphic update or reskin so they can look better.”
“But the game is not made well, understandably it's just come out, but this game has a lot more work to be done with buggy gameplay and graphics that don't work with each other.”

Overall, the gameplay is characterized by a solid core experience with easy-to-understand mechanics and impressive graphics. While the crafting system is diverse and engaging, some combat mechanics, particularly melee attacks, suffer from clumsiness and pathfinding issues. Despite these shortcomings, the game offers a fun and visually appealing experience, with room for further refinement and polish.
“Reptiles: In Hunt features a very diverse crafting mechanic, with several items to make in addition to the challenge of having to face several dinosaurs along the way, each bigger and more menacing than the last!”
“The game is fun and has very good graphics, fluid gameplay, and a lot of collecting resources and materials to evolve your weapons.”
“To note a couple of positives and why you should get it: visually it looks amazing, the gameplay is great, and I really like the OST too (and you will most likely like it too). Also, the setting in which it takes place is really interesting and quite unique.”
“Or maybe a more grounded in modern times game or a cheesy Jurassic Park rip-off take on this style of gameplay.”
“Combat mechanics, for example, are clumsy, and melee attacks aren't very good at pathfinding, making melee a chore.”
“Except for the bugs and gameplay problems, the map design, crafting system, and voiceover look very good.”

The music in the game is widely praised for its fitting soundtracks that enhance both combat and exploration, creating a tense atmosphere during fights and a relaxing vibe in quieter moments. Players appreciate the quality of the original soundtrack (OST), noting its ability to complement the stunning visuals and immersive environment. However, some users have pointed out issues with the combat music playing excessively after battles, indicating a need for refinement in the audio experience.
“The music is perfect, especially in the battle.”
“It has an amazing soundtrack with natural sounds and a chill vibe; I even had the game open while writing this just to listen to the OSTs.”
“It is often the case, when there is no enemy around anymore, that the fight music starts to play over and over again until I have walked a bit.”
“The game looks amazing, that's for sure, the visuals and musical materials are a sweet treat for everyone that enjoys this type of game; however, the game is raw and hollow, there are many features that need to be implemented and things to fix before calling it a fully ready-to-sale product.”
“I really liked the non-combat background music; it was very relaxing.”
