Early Access Review
Game itself: Good game, and fun to play with friends. Enjoyable diversity of species and maps, and community servers have a pretty solid coverage of different play styles.

Accessibility: UI is an absolute nightmare to read, especially if you have any kind of visual impairments, and the heavily textured buttons and backgrounds make navigating the accessibility settings impossible if you actually need the accessibility. Compatibility with the Steam deck is hazardous at best; don't expect to be able to read any text in the game. No captioning that I can find that clarifies which noises from which dinosaurs mean which things, which would be greatly appreciated for a game where those noises make up the bulk of player to player interaction and danger warnings. Didn't find any toggles for storm effects.

Final rating: if I could use "mixed", I would. I do still have fun chilling in the game with friends, but the amount of difficulty I have with the UI definitely sours it. I'm marking it as not recommended in the hopes that addressing some of these concerns will be a priority for the developers, and will update this review accordingly if the game becomes more accessible.
