✨ Core Game Features
🦖 Vast Ecological World
Over 70+ prehistoric species are brought to life in a unique Low Poly style. Spanning sea, land, and air, every creature possesses its own distinct survival instincts, whether stalking the deep ocean or battling on land.
🧬 Unique Evolution System
Say goodbye to tedious XP bars. Achieve species breakthroughs through “Growth + Spawning = Evolution.” Consume highly nutritious food and reproduce to unlock more powerful, high-tier prehistoric apex predators.
🫀 Hardcore Survival Mechanics
Stomach, lungs, and heart are intrinsically linked. Hunger, thirst, stress, or injury directly damage organs and lower conversion efficiency. Temperature, humidity, oxygen, and energy weave a tight web of survival where every decision is a matter of life and death.
⚔️ Strategic Combat System
Features skill buffs, attack penetration/defense toughness, and a localized damage system. Striking different body parts yields vastly different damage multipliers and defensive returns, making every fight a tactical duel. True damage bypasses armor to directly reduce health and accumulates trauma that inhibits heart regeneration—leaving highly traumatized targets in despair even with intact armor.
🐣 Nesting, Brooding, and Breeding
- Diverse Paths: Choose asexual reproduction or find a mate. Environmental temperature determines offspring gender, with males possessing natural advantages in size, attack, and defense.
- Build Nests: Gather stone and wood to build your own nest, serving as your safe haven and respawn point.
- Brooding Enhancement: Manually "brooding" not only doubles hatching speed but also builds up generational accumulation to forge the ultimate lineage.
🧬 Genetic Lineage Inheritance
Offspring inherit excellent genes from their parents, with attributes continuously breaking limits via random fluctuations. Through generational succession and the targeted buffs of brooding enhancement, create a one-of-a-kind peak lineage.
🤖 AI Companion & AI Offspring System
- Tame Wild Companions: Find a wild dinosaur of the same species and opposite sex in the wild. Build affinity through close proximity to tame them into your exclusive AI companion.
- AI Offspring Management: The eggs you lay can hatch into AI offspring. They will obey your orders to become loyal combat followers, allowing you to raise the most faithful territory guards.
- Combat Commands: Issue combat commands such as Follow, Attack Target, Standby, Defend, Protect, and Evade to your AI companions/offspring. AI companions will autonomously search for enemies, assess threats, and execute tactics.
🌍 Dynamic AI Herds
The world features neutral and hostile AI herds with independent behavioral logic. During special seasons, herds gather for breathtaking large-scale migrations—you might witness dozens of dinosaurs rushing from afar, posing both a massive threat and a grand opportunity.
🌡️ Independent Climate Zones
The world is divided into multiple climate zones. Different creatures have specific temperature and humidity requirements. Finding the most suitable area not only saves your life but also accelerates your growth.
🌐 Online Multiplayer
Find like-minded allies to hunt together, or wage brutal wars over territory, water, and food against other player groups. Supports community servers and Steam P2P LAN matchmaking to build your very own prehistoric world.
