Steam Autumn Sale is here with -20% off and also we'll have something special for you on November 25th. Make sure to take a look at Announcements tab and the game's page on that day.
By creating this game we wanted to show the fascinating profession of a paleontologist, but also give you a break from the real world, full of problems. To create a simply Sit Back and Relax game.
If the hours spent searching, excavating and cleaning bones, topped by the wonderfully creative process of creating your own museum makes your heart warm - vote for us in the Sit Back and Relax category!
We will be very grateful for your vote!
P.S. Also today is the start of Steam Autumn Sale! Because of that both: Dinosaur Fossil Hunter and Perseverance DLC are on a prolonged sale until November 29th!

With Patch v2.2 already released and Designer DLC's release coming later today, we're ready to tell you that brand new dinosaur is in the works. Raptor dinosaur is coming to Dinosaur Fossil Hunter!
The Raptor DLC will include:
new Dinosaur species: Utahraptor ostrommaysi
new active dig sites on Dinosaur Canyon location

Utahraptor was the inspiration for the Velociraptors seen in the film Jurassic Park! Utahraptor, however, was quite a bit bigger than Velociraptor; adults were around 20 feet (6.1 meters) long and around 5 feet (1.5 meters) tall at the hip.
Remember that Designer DLC is coming to Steam later today and with it, dinosaur models will be waiting for you to paint them and give them some colors! Don't keep them waiting!
