About
The Cenozoic Era: Survive, Adapt, Conquer
Step into a breathtaking open world where survival is your only goal. In The Cenozoic Era, control a creature from the past, fight for your life, and uncover the secrets of an untamed, ever-changing world. Whether you're a predator or prey, your journey will be uniquely yours.
Explore vast landscapes—from rocky mountains to serene lakes and the endless sky. Customize your creature’s appearance, shape your survival story, and face the brutal realities of nature. With every decision, your survival is at risk—death means starting over or choosing a new animal to control.
Online Survival, Brutal Challenges
Join players in an intense multiplayer survival experience. As a predator, master the hunt and learn to outwit other players, or scavenge from the remains of fallen animals—but beware, danger is everywhere. Trust no one; every encounter could be your last.
Dynamic Seasons and Temperature
Prepare for seasonal challenges: survive freezing winters, scorch under summer heatwaves, and manage your creature’s body temperature to avoid hypothermia or exhaustion. Strategic planning is key to thriving in this ever-changing environment.
Game Modes
Sandbox: Practice, fight, and explore without the fear of permanent death. Perfect for learning the ropes and meeting other players.

great game
It had a lot of potential, when SOME people played I guess it was ok. I haven't played it at all really, because it's just boring. Nobody plays, you'll fine few AI but that's it. The graphics and mechanics are amazing! Having to store up food for the winter, freezing in the winter, and heatwaves in the summer. All of this for it to be dead. I though it'd be known quite a lot, even though I did notice a lot of the models look like those from Wolf Quest: AE, since I play it, it's overall amazing. But you know, I've heard bad things from the Dev that aren't the best, so, maybe just test it. Otherwise if it's for content, invite people and make a video\documentary if so.

okay dispite not playing long i could see that without a doubt the one on roblox is so much better than this i played and just kinda chilled the entire time learning the buttons examining the terrain, you know seeing how it worked. well it works trash i now understand why no one plays. theres nothing to stop you if you run into a rock you go through. some of the buttons don't make sense and those who saw the comminuintys post all those cool looking colored animals well sorry your beyond limited. Also theres no one to play with I was quite litterly the only one playing. this game did better on roblox where a child i added did more and made it better than grown adults who think they can pride themselves on something like this. this is my own thought yall have your own too get at your own choice
1 Server 1 Person Nothing Else, No Other Animals You Can Only Hear Birds That's It, The Texture Quality Is Not The Best, I Can See The Vision, If It Heavily On A Player Base, If There Is No Players Then There Is No Game.
fun game. needs more players
The game is nothing like the pictures. Graphics are bad, there is one single server with zero players and you cant spawn in as an adult. The character model looks bad and it just levitates above the ground. Also there are no Updates! At least its free and doesnt cost 16€ like animalia survival which was just as bad.
trop cool comme jeux gratuits
Tell me a game is a bust without telling me the game is a bust. Just open it to see what I mean. Full of regret. Open to game to find one server with a whopping 1 Player. Do not waste your time. Total FLOP.
Não tenho nada contra a ideia desse jogo, vejo que tem algum potencial. Só uma coisa chamou minha atenção. A maioria dos modelos de animais deste jogo eu reconheço da edição aniversariante de Wolfquest – e isso me parece suspeito. Não estou tentando criticá-los de forma negativa ou algo assim, só estou me perguntando se eles têm permissão para usá-los. Mas claro, se eles tivessem permissão ou não precisassem, tudo bem. Só espero que eles não tenham roubado. Fora isso, para a jogabilidade — preciso de uma solução para o jogo rodar de forma mais suave, porque quando eu aparecia em um "mundo de sobrevivência" já estava bem lento, e os controles estavam meio confusos. E se houvesse mais países para jogar? Digamos — bem, se eu quiser jogar como um leopardo, faria mais sentido em um habitat africano. É só isso :p
