# Prehistoric Kingdom

Prehistoric Kingdom is an upcoming construction and management simulation video game developed by Blue Meridian and published by Crytivo. The game was made available under Steam's early access program on April 27, 2022 for Microsoft Windows and macOS, and is also available on the Epic Games Store. A full release of the game is expected in 2026.
British naturalist Nigel Marven provided a voiceover during the now scratched tutorial and provides facts about all in-game species.

## Gameplay

Prehistoric Kingdom is a business simulation game, where players build a zoo composed of dinosaurs and other extinct animals, similar in concept and gameplay to the Jurassic World Evolution games. The player can build enclosures to house the animals and must take care of their needs. This includes providing animals with food, water, and the proper foliage.
The player must also meet the needs of the guests visiting the park, using modules (restaurants, bathrooms, etc.) to satisfy their guests needs.
The game features a modular building system, allowing the player to use small props and other pieces to create buildings such as a hatchery or a guest facility. Players can precisely move, rotate, and scale individual pieces to create unique structures. These creations can also be uploaded to the Steam Workshop for other players to download.
Staff are a major part of gameplay. There are three staff types currently in-game. These are the keeper, cashier, and laborer. Keepers support the animals side of management, stocking feeders and cleaning up dung. Cashiers support the guest side of management, selling food and other goods to guests. Laborers support the logistics side of management, transporting goods to modules.
There are currently 60 individual species of animals available in the game, including 47 dinosaurs and 13 extinct mammals. The designs of the animals aim to be scientifically accurate. To discover new animals, players must assign dig teams to dig sites found all across the world. These teams bring back DNA material which is added to an animal’s viable genome. Once the genome is complete, animals are then created in the Animal Nursery (a module).
