What players say

Incredibly charming, has dinosaur, and is very fun. I like the music and story and characters. The world is very believably developed too.

Incredibly charming, with a pinch of 90's "obtuse" to some of the puzzles, but otherwise a lovely little jaunt through prehistory. I love this one.
Tank_FactsRecommendedafter 11h1 found this helpfulRead on Steam
Wonderful and simply delightful. A classic point & click adventure games in the vein of classic LucasArts titles. Puzzles aren't too difficult and are satisfying. The writing is solid and entertaining. And the art is fantastic, with well designed characters and great animations throughout.
