What players say
89% of 42,105 reviews are positive · 92% of 152 in the last 30 days
Players most often praise the sandbox park-building, dinosaur variety, and the chaos of balancing animal care, staff, security, and guest needs. The dominant complaint is that the campaign feels like a short, repetitive tutorial, while some players find the broader management too simple or repetitive.
