Dinosaur Fossil Hunter News

[h2]Dear Paleontologists![/h2]

It's time for The Steam Awards!

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!

[h2]We're not slowing down, Fossil Hunters![/h2]

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
  
• 10 skeleton poses
  
• 252 unique bones
  

Did you know that the Velociraptors seen in the film Jurassic Park were actually the size of Utahraptor?! In reality Utahraptor, 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.

The Raptors shown in original Jurassic Park were enlarged Velociraptors (too big for current knowledge back then), but few days after the film was released Paleontologists discovered the Utahraptors which were actually the size shown in the Film!

Add Raptor DLC to your wishlist!

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!
