The WhatsNext verdict

For Metroidvania fans who want survival crafting, prehistoric danger, and a local co-op option: Explore a primeval world, craft and upgrade to survive its predators, and uncover a story mixing family, dinosaurs, and UFOs. Tradeoff: Survival and crafting add resource management to exploration, and the family story is not a substitute for a combat-first action game.
