Understanding Teams and Roles

Soldiers use guns — from Pistol to Rocket Launcher — to eliminate dinosaurs before time expires. Dinosaurs use melee attacks to kill soldiers or survive until the round ends. Each team requires different skills: soldiers need aim and positioning; dinosaurs need map knowledge and ambush timing. You will play both teams across sessions.

Three Game Modes

  • Hunt Mode — Core round-based soldiers vs dinosaurs. Best for credit farming.
  • Survival Mode — Longer matches with sustained pressure and defensive holds.
  • Dino War — Large-scale battles for end-game dinosaur testing.
Mode guides: Hunt, Survival, Dino War.

Seven Maps to Learn

Start on Facility (small, fast), then expand to Temple and Museum for interior combat, Swamp for stealth, City for urban flanks, Volcano and Hills for elevation and sniping. Each map changes which dinosaurs and weapons perform best.

All maps: Facility, Volcano, Temple, Museum, Swamp, City, Hills.
