A nostalgic trip to point and click games
This is a fun point and click game with decent graphics, but for adults out there, better play it with your kids because you are not the target audience or at least try to see it as a child would. Yes, dinosaurs should have feathers and all that but is a game staring a cartoon dinosaur, what did you expect?
The game is easy but won't solve everything for you, if you get stuck reading the encyclopedia and looking at the extras you unlock as you play the game will most likely help.
The writing is very well done, and I could almost see this being an actual good cartoon back in the 90s and early 2000s.
Beware however because this is a bit of an edutainment game, the graphics may not be realistic, but the real facts about dinosaurs are, so you are not only playing a game you are getting educated!
Unfortunately, the game has a limited inventory system and while you can upgrade how many items you can carry as you play, is never enough to carry everything. That drags the game a bit as you are forced to backtrack to pick items you dropped before, because you need to use them. That and the lack of a quick travel or run button does slow the game, but it is also a way to encourage kids (and older players) to do some critical thinking.
Still, a future update with a (optional) quick travel option would definitely make this game better for kids and less patient players.
As it is, this game may frustrate some people but is still a very good option if you have a bit of patience.
