What players say
94% of 4,556 reviews are positive · 92% of 25 in the last 30 days
Players praise the prehistoric setting, crop and animal domestication, and the balance among farming, exploration, and social activities. The recurring complaint is slow, uneven progression that becomes repetitive and grindy, especially later in the game; some also find movement, stamina recovery, and routine inventory actions cumbersome.
