The Isle - An island full of dinosaurs

The Isle, from developer Afterthought LLC, can be easily described in one word: dinosaurs. More specifically, The Isle is a dinosaur survival game where you get to choose whether you want to play as a carnivore or herbivore dinosaur. The game was released in 2015, but it's still in Early Access. Nevertheless, the developers are still working on the game, so you now even have the option to play as humans in this dinosaur world. Yes, that's not historically accurate, but that's not what The Isle is focused on.

From Baby Dino to Big Dino

In Survival mode you spawn as a young dinosaur on the island. You can choose from 15 dinosaurs. So you can play as a carnivore either a Carnotaurus, Allosaurus or even the famous Tyrannosaurus and let it mature into an adult Dino. Among the herbivores you have the choice of famous dinosaurs such as the Triceratops or the Parasaurolophus. As a so-called carnivore (carnivore) you grow out of the diapers over time. Your health, the damage you do and your speed continue to increase and you have to look for suitable food. You are more successful in a herd than alone. As a herbivore (herbivore) you have to survive the attacks of the carnivores and eat enough plants to survive. Again, it applies: It is safer within a herd than alone. The Sandbox mode lets you experience the Dinoasurier life from certain points in time without stress.

More and More Dinosaurs and Opportunities

Developers and publisher "Aftertought LLC" are still quite new and have not released any other games yet. "The Isle" is so dear to them that they still lovingly continue to develop it and fill it with more content, despite the already very long-lasting early access phase. The focus is mainly on more dinosaurs. There should be water and flying dinosaurs as well as the existing dinosaur tribe expanded to include more species. The playable factions of humans should also be expanded as well as the different biomes of the island. The dinosaurs should be equipped with intelligent AI to be able to realize complex behavioral patterns and make the gaming experience even more "realistic". In addition, "Afterthought LLC" is constantly working on making the in-game texts and menus available in more languages and providing the necessary game support. If you feel like living the life of your favorite dinosaur, eating, growing and exploring an unknown prehistoric island, then "The Isle" is just right for you.
