Players are transported to the world of dinosaurs, tasked with the exhilarating and often perilous challenge of hunting these ancient creatures for sport.

Gameplay

The game provides a selection of weapons and tools, allowing players to strategize and customize their hunting approach.

Setting

Set on a distant planet where dinosaurs have been restored to life, the game allows players to explore diverse environments, such as dense jungles and expansive plains. The lush, varied landscapes contribute to the game’s atmospheric tension, as players navigate through the terrain in search of their prehistoric targets.

Technical Features

Legacy
