Having only played single player I can definitely say the game requires a lot of resource collection and a non existent tutorial couple with a steep learning curve. The end result is an unforgiving game. What the game does have is a wildlife (dinosaur) rich world that is exhilarating to explore. I haven't tried multiplayer based on stories of griefing.

Great game that includes amazing dinosaurs. It makes you think things thru in order to survive the elements and the dangers that come along with being alone in the wilderness.

Super fun and entertaining! Multi-player is every fun, there is PvE, but you can play on closed servers as well. There have been some glitches, a little frustrating, but not enough to knock the score down for me. Be prepared to be playing this game for hours on end - very addicting game!

It can be played buy somewhat older kids and teens. The MA rating is due to a few bathroom breaks and dinosaurs eating. Overall great game

This was a trying game in the start, but once you understand how to get resources and build things it becomes a fun challenge. As long as you are able to create a shelter and stay focused on your level of hunger and water consumption it should be a very enjoyable game.

I began playing this game a couple of years ago on Android - Mobile version, almost addicted. Very challenging game.
Cut to PS4 Pro version. Gameplay is great, the game keeps up with the graphics, definately has glitches, don't get me wrong.

Lots of fun and challenging survival game to get started. Once you work on your character for a while it gets easier but I feel like there's not enough events or end game content for me to continue playing daily. But if you have always wanted to ride on prehistoric creatures and shoot things, it's pretty fun to try out until you get burnt out. But perhaps you won't. Perhaps it's just what you want to log in every day and play. You do you. I liked it for a while but went back to other games.

Nice concept for a game. Gather resources, create tools and weapons, build a house, unlock improvements, and ride dinosaurs. Who wouldn't like a game like that?
Unfortunately where it falls short is the buggy game play and the extensive menu options. Sometimes the game is so glitchy you won't even know where you died and your items disappear. Other times you'll just go from day to night in a snap. I just don't understand how a company can put out DLC that they charge for when the base game has so many graphical and mechanical issues.
Over all Its definitely a good concept which is why I'm giving the 3 stars but the issues sometimes make the game frustrating.

An awesome game that seams almost like a futuristic style of Minecraft worth the 50 bucks that I spent picking it up
