In this prehistoric adventure game, players form alliances with other online players to construct fortresses to separate the forest and the dinosaurs within it. The players objective is to reconstruct civilization within the constant attacks from lethal dinosaurs and rival tribes, using elements from games such as The Forest and Far Cry- players will harvest resources by chopping down trees, and hunting animals for pelts to create new items and barricades. Once fortifications are complete, the player may play in strategic third person mode like games such as Total War and Age of Empires, in order to engage in epic battles against other online players in their sections of the shared open, online world.

The game is online only, so players must play on shared servers in order to add to the immersion of the open world. This makes players come across each-other while stumbling through the forests as they encounter dinosaurs and other tribes. The crafting system is an important element of gameplay, and each new game generates a brand new map that combines to another players world, so the world is evergrowing and exciting.
