[dropcap style=”style1″]W[/dropcap]ebgame surely did have its glorioys days back then in Vietnam, due to the convenience in not having to install anything on the hard drive. There are two major genres that ruled over this field: MMORPG and strategy – simulation game, such as Travian or Linh Vương. Nowadays, when mobile platform has become a formidable force, there’s nothing strange for these genres to gain their fame back.

Leading by Supercell with their popular titles such as Clash of Clans and Boom Beach, strategy – simulation games gradually gain their ground on mobile platfor, and actually became one of the most admirable genres. Coming from PlayPark, Advance Dino is also a fine example for how popular this genre is, especially when you combine the already-famous collectible card genre with cute dinosaurs.[heading heading_text=”DOWNLOAD”][appbox googleplay compact com.playpark.advancingdino][taq_review][space space_height=”40″]

+ Deep and unique gameplay:

In Advance Dino, your main task is to build your very own kingdom, by building an army, researching new technologies, expanding your teritory and annihilating any opposed forces. In order to collect Silver and Energy, two main types of resorce, you have to build the factories and mines to generate them. But resources are never enough, so that in order to gain more, you have to raid other players, breaching their defense and pillaging them.

The strategy essence in Advance Dino is reflected cleary via the fact that you have to setup your Dino generals and their troops at strategic locations, starting by surrounding the enemy teritory. The enemy also retaliates you with their own Dino generals and towers, not to mention the solid walls that were built to halt your process. In order to break through these defending factors, you have to think wisely about the locations at which you place your generals to avoid being swarmed by towers, and about what to destroy first to reduce the enemy’s firepower.[space space_height=”20″]

+ Cute and cheerful graphics:

When using the image of cute dinosaurs, Advance Dino has indeed done a wise move, since these mascots are very symbolizing. When you hear about “dinosaur”, it would echo about something unreal, yet fascinating – and in this game, they’re also “advance”. The designing of Dino generals are very well done, with each one having its own traits and images. On top of that, the color scheme of Advance Dino is quite bright and cheerful, giving relaxing vibe eventhough this game is all about fighting and destroying.

The colorful Dino generals are all having their very own personality, in which you can see clearly after playing for a few hours. This heavily resembles the famous franchise Pokemon, with the selling point by having a large collection of cute and hideous monsters.[space space_height=”20″]

+ Ridiculous freemium:

Advance Dino is free to play, yes, by theory. This game really doesn’t cost you anything to play – but by playing for free, you won’t achieve many significant things, this is also a fact. Although every building in this game only cost in-game resources, but they also take a ridiculous amount of time to finish, and this is real time. The higher level your construction is, the longer it needs to complete – and actually you will reach the point that having to wait 99 hours just to finish ONE building.

On top of that, you can’t build them simulatenously more than 2 at the same times. This makes in the latter half of the game, most of the jobs to do is waiting endlessly to achieve something, that is only be built to make you wait even more. All of these nuisances were intentionally made so that you have to invest cash to play effectively – since with the Gem (in-game currency that can only be bought by cash), you can finish a building process instantly, or hiring more builders to build some at the same time.[space space_height=”20″]

[space space_height=”20″]Aside from Clash of Clans and Boom Beach, Advance Dino maybe another name worthy to mention on mobile platform. With unique gameplay and great graphics, as long as you don’t really care about waiting or having to pay much,  Advance Dino is indeed a great game.[space space_height=”20″]
