Even if I beat it relatively quick. Though, it is still a fun lil time waster! Just wish it was finished and not left in limbo. Like it is nice to finally see that the americas were added after so long. Though, that just begs the question why is Asia taking so long? Also, it kinda sucks that there’s only 8 dinosaurs in the americas. Given how up to this point, the number of dinosaurs went up by 2, you could’ve added a few more dinosaurs into the game. Especially since North America has some of the most popular dinosaurs of all time, yet only the Stegosaurus and Tyrannosaurus are here. Personally, I felt like the americas should’ve been saved for last if we’re gonna use BOTH north and south as one big continent, but that’s just me. Also please, fix the issue of there only being 24 digsites in the Americas when there should be 25. The amber for Tyrannosaurus is literally impossible to find in the game as of now. I had to check the reviews to make sure it wasn’t just me. But aside from that problem and a possible dino roster expansion for the Americas. The selection is rather good for the first game. Definitely like some of the more out there picks like Alamosaurus and Oxalaia. It’s a fun way to help young players learn about dinosaurs that aren’t talked about as much as the usual ones. Final thing to note is that after playing both this and its sequel, I’m kinda torn on which is better. While I think the gameplay and dinosaur selection is better than 2. It severely lacks the wonderful customization and simulation of Dino Quest 2. Which is understandable given the 2d art style, but it would be fun to add like dioramas to the displays. Would give them a lil more life and spark the imagination that I feel kids would have when visiting a museum. You already have amber that gives you a look at what these dinosaurs could’ve looked like if you find them, why not go all out??But overall, I like both games and hope they’ll be updated again in the near future!! (Last lil thing, why is Allosaurus and Ceratosaurus in Australia and Africa respectively? Last I remember, they’re both from North America. It’s really just a nitpick since Dino Quest 2 has some questionable dino placements, but that always bothered me, haha!) ### 4/5 — Buen juego *2026-01-28, version 1.8.52* Ya había jugado de chico este mismo juego, pero ahora me tomo en serio el completar cada fósil con cada ámbar, y se me hace muy frustrante que no puedo completar 2 fósiles de Australia porque no aparezca un sitio de excavación a pesar de que ya haya excavado todo Australia y todos los fósiles que me permite. Y estoy viendo que muchos tienen problema con el continente de Asia ### 3/5 — Игра хорошая но *2024-11-26, version 1.8.46* Играл в шесть лет не было Южной Америки Северной Америки и Азии сейчас мне двенадцать и до сих пор из выше перечисленных материков ни один они не добавили. Я так понимаю игру забросили и они не собираются её доделывать. А так игра хорошая и всем советую ### 3/5 — Hard to operate and sometimes doesn’t work *2024-03-30, version 1.8.44* I H A T E T H E M O V M E N T >:( ### 5/5 — Really good for Dinosaur fans *2024-03-16* This game has stuck with me since my very young ages and is probably one of the reasons I love dinosaurs so much. I would really recommend this game for children who are around 4-7 and love dinosaurs. ### 5/5 — Ma buenisimo *2024-01-11, version 1.8.39* Solo asia ### 3/5 — Have to wait for another 6 years for Asia… *2023-10-11, version 1.8.39* Can you please make Asia?

Not worth it. *2025-11-27, version 1.8.51* Game used to be good years ago, but now just opening it brings you into an u shippable long ad. So many ads It’s practically unplayable. The amount of ads make it not worth it, especially getting an ad before even getting past the loading screen.. ### 1/5 — troppa pubblicità ingiocabile *2025-02-18, version 1.8.49* troppa pubblicità ingiocabile ### 1/5 — To long *2024-03-29, version 1.8.44* It takes to long to download. ### 1/5 — Игра зависает *2021-08-24, version 1.8.5* Зависает в самом начале. Se II и ipad 4 … ### 1/5 — The Americas are finally here!!!!!!!!! *2021-08-09, version 1.8.5* Now we need to wait for Asia, but hey, the fact that they FINALLY added a new continent is amazing! ### 1/5 — No! *2021-02-13, version 1.7.1* Deleting. This game takes hours to refill energy and takes very little time to use it. I can't play for much more than a minute. The dinosaurs out get after finished skeletons look.. stupid... ### 1/5 — Terrible *2020-10-21, version 1.5.17* I get the game, I pay $1.99 so my kid doesn’t have to watch advertisements, he plays for less than 5 minutes. His energy is empty and he’s asked to watch an advertisement to get more energy! Why am i paying to remove adds and they aren’t removed. Feels like a rip off. I want my money back! ### 1/5 — Зависает *2020-09-18, version 1.5.17* Игра все время зависает ### 1/5 — This game *2020-05-20, version 1.5.15* This game is really boring and the developers should update it I Am GOING TO UNINSTALL ### 1/5 — No update for Almost 3 years *2018-12-05, version 1.5.11* I played this game almost 3 years ago and the last levels were “coming soon”. Still that way three years later! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very nice 5 stars *2026-07-10, version 1.8.54* But I wonder is there any new updates… ### 5/5 — You have beef with Asia? *2026-02-09, version 1.8.52* You haven’t put in any dinosaurs for Asia and I was just wondering, how long will it take until you do this? There’s so many fascinating dinosaurs for Asia. ### 5/5 — Dinomite! Excellent game for all ages *2025-12-13* Combines minesweeper-like search for fossil sites with an intriguing and informative set of dino bones from different continents to uncover. Easy mechanics, great graphics and lots of different tools to choose from. 10/10 ### 5/5 — Nostalgia *2025-07-16, version 1.8.50* Played when i was 4. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Х *2025-06-10, version 1.8.50* Игра во👑 ### 5/5 — Have always loved this game *2024-11-26, version 1.8.46* I love this game, I had it on my tablet when I was 8 years old and redownloaded it today. Definitely nostalgic for me and it’s fun!! ### 5/5 — Looove…but *2024-09-04* I absolutely love this game and everything about it. I have been playing awhile now and have completed all the continents but still waiting for Asia to unlock. I tried Dino Quest 2 while waiting and wasn’t a fan myself, it’s nothing like this one. Please please update this game, I want to keep playing! ### 5/5 — Hallo *2024-07-18* Ich wünsche mir das sie Asien freischalten ### 5/5 — Make Asia *2024-06-11, version 1.8.45* When would Asia come? I don’t want to wait for 6 years! And the Americas is here. But I can sometimes get an ad for Gossip Harbor (an annoying long ad) please get this ad off! Why are you saying Coming Soon if it is never coming? I have 8 ideas which are tarbosaur, oviraptor, velociraptor, gigantoraptor, ultrasaur, microraptor, fukuiraptor and charonosaurus. And Thomas Rexton the Dog really helps me a lot! ### 5/5 — Waiting and waiting *2024-03-20, version 1.8.44* I wonder where the developers went. This game is so nostalgic --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
