Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.43/day in the week to Aug 24 → 2/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Un jeu vraiment sympa, très rigolo où l'on des dinosaures géants en 2D.
curto, divertido mas um pouco confuso quanto a objetivos e navegação no mapa
As a dinosaur lover, I loved the entire concept and style of this game! The music and visuals were amazing. I’ve played many Metroidvanias over the years and I feel like this one’s stands out for its unique style; however, it definitely has its flaws. It has silent storytelling, which made it both interesting and frustrating at the same time. I struggled with dying and getting lost so much before realizing the character upgrades really make or break the game, and they don’t do a great job of explaining it or emphasizing it. I almost completely abandoned the game, because I got stuck deep underwater without a dolphin to save me. That aside, after some upgrades helping open up the world to me, I found the game enjoyable. Being able to pick up and carry your kid was such a cute touch. The maps aren’t super helpful, since they are more cave drawings, so I had to resort to guides to find the secret areas and find my way around. Hats off to the dev team for making a fun world and creating a dinosaur game that still embraces the wonder of dinosaurs alongside the survival elements. It’s not too long of a game, so if you’re into dinosaurs and aliens, give this a shot!

cara, basicamente um jogo completa com um estilo totalmente diferente mesmo estando na area mais inesperadas de todas, total inovador
Primal Planet é um jogo divertido e ótimo para jogar em coop, com uma experiência leve e fluida. O problema é que ele é fácil demais e, como metroidvania, decepciona bastante por ser extremamente linear e quase não ter exploração. Por outro lado, como jogo de plataforma e aventura cooperativa, funciona muito bem e entrega uma experiência simples e agradável.
Дуже захоплююча і цікава гра, хоча на перший погляд так не скажеш.
good
Первобытно
Super fun little game. It's a little short for a metroidvania, but it has room to grow, and it seems like the dev is adding more on occasion. It could stand to be a little harder (or have more content that gets harder), as you can get by with just dodging towards the back end of the dino or staying in the air as much as you can or just maxing spears and being ranged, and carrying lots of food, but that's okay. Took about 11 hours to 100% when I played it. I probably could've saved an hour by not getting 100%, but it was more fun to roam around fighting big dinos once I was stronger anyway. If you like dinosaurs, but not enough that you don't want to murder them a whole bunch, this is a great game for you!
I liked the idea of this game, but not the game itself. I tried on PC and for a while on steam deck, but no matter how I tried I just couldn't get into it. Dinosaurs and aliens and metroidvania seemed cool but... The movement is clunky. Very clunky. Especially the kind of... climbing that you do. Throwing your spear to make a platform is really more cumbersome than it should be. Combat is really awkward too, with animations that don't match up at all to actual impact zones or hitboxes, as well as limited thrown items that just take too long to travel and really aren't much use despite being designed as a core combat mechanic. Add to that the general noisy visuals that make it hard to tell incoming enemy bullets from random background elements and it just... got under my skin too much. Lastly the map is very boring. Most of the visuals are repetitive and uninteresting. If you really get into this kind of.. janky, minimalist Metroidvania style then I guess this game can have merit, but for me it was a total flop.
