Today we have something special for you - a gameplay timelapse presenting museum display setup. We also would like to give you various tips for creating your own prehistoric museum.

After gathering your findings and careful fossil preparation, you can proudly present your skeletons to the society. Open your own dinosaur museum and become a truly brilliant custodian. Follow our tips below and design unique exhibitions.
Start with creating a few exhibits that will attract your museum's future visitors. Put your completed dinosaur skeleton into the exhibition and set its pose to imitate lifelike situations. Use your creativity to arrange breathtaking scenes involving many different species in their natural environments
The next step is to choose a fitting biome that will determine the general look of your creation and the ground type as well. Carefully decorate your exhibition with real plants, rocks, and trees to make your specimens look more attractive.
Remember that even the best exhibition needs a good background setting that will underline its value. That's why you will also need to tend your museum. Customize floors and walls to bring out the mood of your exhibitions.

The next american location in Dinosaur Fossil Hunter will take you to the canyons carved by streams! Searching for fossils near the canyons can uncover many paleontological secrets.
However, it won't be easy to get to these fossil sites - apart from the large and difficult terrain, you will have to get access to the guarded military area.
But the effort will pay off! You will have a unique chance to find many interesting fossils to your collection. Additionally you will be surrounded by beautiful views, so the fossil hunting in this location will be relaxing and satisfying.
Sorry for the radio silence. We want to assure you that we are constantly working hard on Dinosaur Fossil Hunter and we’re preparing something special for you. In about a week we’ll present new gameplay video, to show you the progress we've made so far.
First of all, we’re sorry for staying quiet for a while. Recently we’ve been busy making improvements to our game. We’ve mainly worked on implementing new functionalities and polishing gameplay features and mechanics.
Today we’re continuing our devlog series with a look at fresh screenshots.
Dinosaur Fossil Hunter allows you to choose the time of the day for an excavation. If you are an early bird, you can start the fossil hunting in the morning, surrounded by mysterious fog.
Afternoon is also a good time of the day for an excavation. You can search for Dino fossils in the warm sun :)
If you consider yourself a night owl, just search for the remains of extinct vertebrates under the full moon. All of these options will let you dig into the ground in an atmospheric scenery!
