Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“I use to love the game, but I've found in the later stages of the game it becomes corrupt, and ruins the world you spent countless hours to build. It looks like the Dev's have corrected the glitch where ALL the tamed dino's would start…”
“As an avid Ark player, this was kinda disappointing. I rarely give bad reviews and I'm sad an Ark related game had to be one. I would have liked this game a lot more if it wasn't so janky, and you have to farm resources so hard. Normally…”
