### 5/5 — Ads

*2022-08-08, version 0.90.3*

During ad videos the game would freeze and any fossil you find new or not would be lost just to let you know.

### 4/5 — Fun but….

*2022-05-06, version 0.90.3*

This game is fun. However, the digging gets more tedious and sometimes you find the same fossils without making progress, hence wasting coins. Also, why are there two of the same dinosaurs?

### 5/5 — AMAZING GAME!!!

*2022-04-23, version 0.90.3*

I absolutely love this game! It is so much fun and quite honestly, pretty addicting! There are so many dinosaurs and the progression system is spot on! This is probably one of, if not, my favorite mobile game I’ve ever downloaded. However, I do have a bit of constructive criticism that I think could make the game even better!
I have yet to discover a way of earning gems other than buying them or receiving 70 from downloading. You do gain 1000 coins from completing a dinosaur though. However, after roughly your 5th Dino, the coins are practically worthless. I would much prefer to see the coins replaced with gems. This would allow you to unlock items like the shovel without having to spend money to get them.
The only other thing I would recommend to make the game even better is to add secret fossils that you can find randomly that have some sort of extra value once you complete the skeleton.
Other than that, I have no other suggestions! This game is fantastic!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2022-03-26, version 0.90.3*

It fun if your bored

### 1/5 — Worst game ever! Gave me mouth herpies!

*2022-03-18, version 0.90.3*

I really really really liked this game in the beginning but, I realized how it copied the famous game “MY MUSEUM” but then. I met the creator of this game irl. And I missed him on his soft lips. I’m not specifying which lips of his I kissed. I went home after a night of kissing him and went to sleep. When I woke up, I had herpies. Please don’t get this game. I sued him for giving me herpies. He put so many ads in the game because I sued him for giving me herpies. Let him be in bankrupt. Bankrupt herpie. Terrible game. Loved the kissing though.

### 3/5 — Good but stolen

*2022-03-08, version 0.90.3*

It’s a good game but you literally copied the concept and layout from another game Called MY MUSEUM, the only difference is the graphics

### 5/5 — I lost my progress

*2022-02-24, version 0.90.3*

I played the game for a while and I just got an antarctopelta before it started lagging I stopped playing for a minute got back on and my progress was lost

### 3/5 — Ads crashing the game

*2022-02-17, version 0.90.3*

I find myself everytime I am doing an event when I click to +15 tries or start a new round the ads that are playing turns into a black screen and when I click on the screen it sends me to the website entertainment today. When I try and go back to the game it crashes and I have to restart constantly losing the coins and the event rounds. Please fix!

### 4/5 — Why you should and should not get this game

*2022-02-04, version 0.90.3*

It’s a fun game and I love the idea of getting bones and putting them in your museum.but it’s kinda glitchy like I get the I try to more but it puts me in a glitchy ad that sometimes shows up and  
Sometimes it doesn’t but if it does it does it and after a black screen shows and I haft to leave the game and if the ad doesn’t show up it’s a black screen and I haft to leave the game but it’s a good game

### 1/5 — If you like ads, then get this game

*2022-01-09, version 0.90.3*

Another cute game with a ridiculous amount of ads that interrupt way to frequently. I will NEVER spend $ on in game purchases with games with ads.

Buh bye
