How it plays
Each player is a dinosaur that starts small and has to eat, drink and hide to grow.
Friends can spawn together with a shared code, form a herd or pack and raise a nest, while other players hunt them or become their prey.
Growth is slow and death is costly, so it suits patient groups who enjoy survival.
It is in early access.
Each player needs a copy.
