Not good

Honestly this is not very good becuase you have to pay for an extension pack and yea the quality that is shown is not very good and I feel like all of it should be free

Not getting what I paid for.

I paid for full access to content and see a bunch of blank silhouettes of dinosaurs. When I tap on them all I see is an image of dinosaur egg. And my content is supposed to be fully downloaded.

It is a very good app!! just a few things.

This is a very good app but in an earlier version the models looked more realistic. Like the bothriolepis has seperate plate kind of armor but in the earlier version the gaps between the armor where more deep. Also in the new update all animals look more yellowish or more cartoonish. Also in the Jurassic seas 3d biomes when we press the button and the man talks he says something about Leedsichthys but there is no leesichthys in the app so can you add the leedsichthys? Also here is a list of animals I want you to add:

Eurhinosaurus
Hatzegopteryx
Himalayasaurus
Guizhouichthyosaurus
Gaunlingsaurus
Guidraco
Shastasaurus
Kronosaurus
Koolasuchus
Excalibosaurus
Temnodontosaurus
Ornithocheirus
Jaekelopterus
Elasmosaurus
Cameroceras

Also please make the Helicoprion’s mouth be fully open so everyone can see its spiral jaw 🦈🌀🦕🦖

Broken parts of app

It’s really frustrating that parts of the app are broken and we pay for full access. Maps like savanna are broken and stay frozen. There are duplicates and some are broken as well. I hope they fix this. Not worth the crying kids when the app doesn’t work after paying for it.

Are you going to fix this?

I would rate it five stars if you would fix this, because what happened to the models of the new dinosaurs, there al just empty. I keep checking the came to see if you would update it but not fixed, but it is a great game.
