Fun With Friends
brantspandon | June 13, 2013 | See all brantspandon's reviews »I recently got this game on sale on steam for $5 and do not regret my decision at all. The game is fun in itself, but it just gets stupid fun when you get a group of friends to play with. I was able to sit down and play for a solid 6 hours with just 2 other friends because it honestly improves it THAT much more. Even though the map selection is rather limited, I constantly find myself getting lost as a human when running around in the jungle. That being said, the most I would pay for this title would be $10 (Steam full price), though I would wait and see if you can't get it for any less than that.

Fun dinosaur multiplayer game
DManVI | June 6, 2013 | See all DManVI's reviews »You either play as humans or dinosaurs. There are about 5 classes for each team. The game doesnt take itself very serious, seeing how you basicly respawn instantly and run back to kill some more. Theres no tutorial so you dont really know what you're suppose to do the first time you play a mode or character class. Either way, i had a fun time playing as either team. As a multiplayer game its alot of fun to use different tactics depending on what team and class you are playing. This give some variety wich is alot of fun.

Incredibly fun indie game
metfighter | June 1, 2013 | See all metfighter's reviews »I bought this game last week and seriously cannot stop playing. It is equally as fun playing humans or dinosaurs. The only negative thing about this game is that there are only 2 gametypes, but both are amazingly fun. The classes for dinosaurs and humans offer enough variety to how you play the game and give you enough to stay interested for a long time.

Dinosaurs vs humans
Stebsis | May 27, 2013 | See all Stebsis's reviews »Dinos vs humans, what more could you want!? Well, little less bugs and a bit better gameplay would be nice... But yeah, this definitely is a fun game even with the bugs and some gameplay issues, like no tutorials which makes controlling dinos a pain in the ass in the beginning. When you get the hang of it, playing with dinos is just awesome. Humans on the other hand could've been made a bit more interesting with better arsenal of weapons, you don't get anything really imaginative. It still has its moments like a giant T-Rex stomping from the jungle coming at you is just terrifying. This is a fun multiplayer game and pretty cheap too, if you're into games like Natural Selection 2 this is a game for you.
