A Dinosaur’s Life BETA: Review

A Dinosaur's Life(BETA)

Link to place: HERE.

I had heard a lot about this game when I was doing extensive foruming, so I decided to take a look what everyone was so excited about.

When you arrive at this very creative game you are given the immensely big decision of choosing which species of dinosaurs you would like to join; although only three choices, it still allows you to have hours of fun, especially if you’re a game geek like me. The three choices are Herbivore, a plant eating dinosaur, Carnivore, a meat eater and an Omnivore which is a combination of both.
Once decided your group you get yet another decision of choosing what type of dinosaur within that group you wish to become, my personal favorite is the Ankylosaurus. After all the basic decisions are over, it's time to have some real fun. The game has many islands of which the dinosaurs spawn on; also the islands hold the key to keeping your dinosaur alive and safe.

You start off as an egg for a certain amount of time, and then after a period of months you are able to click grow which turns you into a small dinosaur, this allows you to get around the islands easier and faster. After another period of time you are able to grow further, and so on until you are at full growth.
The game revolves around three key points which keeps you alive throughout the game, and those points are, water, food and oxygen which quite simply you must sustain a reasonable level of each, which means you must consume regularly and avoid drowning or being devoured.

The owner is very creative and I suggest you visit this game.


Overall: (7/10) Needs some improvement, but the game is very enjoyable.

Lag: (10/10) No lag at all.

Scripting: (8/10) Very good scripting but has more potential.

GUI’s: (10/10) Lots of useful GUI's and they are very clear to understand.

Problems: (9/10) There was one problem I faced; when the water regenerated I got stuck in it until it regenerated again.

Originality: (8/10) This game seems original yet it reminds me of a combination of Survival 101 and other dinosaur role-play games.

Overall Enjoyment: (10/10) Other than the slight problem with the water, I felt this game was extremely creative and enjoyable.

Player Reviews: (10/10) Everyone in this game who I asked really enjoyed it and would recommend it to a friend.
