Evaluation

Tamer: King of Dinosaurs is in Early Access, having launched on Steam on June 4, 2026. The developer, Ride the Lion Studios, has maintained an exceptionally active and transparent development cadence since launch. The most recent update — posted on August 28, 2026, the same day as this assessment — is one of the largest yet. It shipped the Deep Jungle: Endless Hunt roguelike combat mode, introduced NSFW Cinematic Mode, delivered a free Milky Momma Costume Pack for all players, and overhauled save-game reliability. Critically, the developer explicitly states that the August 28 Endless Hunt release is "only Version 1" and lists features already in development for it: persistent progression, records, in-game currency, more boons, additional traps and machines, seasonal content, and unlockable skin rewards. The post also previews September fixes and Endless Hunt improvements, and announces a "massive October update" featuring cooking, taming, construction, new quests, new enemies, and expanded Block 1 story content. The broader roadmap remains intact: Block 2 story content (Sheela romance arc, additional Galmine and Trel quests) is targeting December 2026, and the developer references a full 1.0 release in 2027. The game currently offers Block 1 — roughly 10 playable story days out of an intended ~30 — meaning the majority of the planned narrative content has not yet shipped. All five DLC items currently listed on the store are released (Soundtrack, Digital Art Book, GothMommy skin pack, Blind Bunny, and Pajama Party costume packs), but the developer has been consistently shipping new free content packs alongside updates and has more announced on the way. The studio has demonstrated reliable delivery against its announced plans throughout Early Access, building confidence that the stated roadmap reflects genuine ongoing development.

About this game

Introducing Tamer: King of Dinosaurs - an action/adventure game for people of culture who love dinosaurs, adventure, and harem dating sims featuring beautiful alien women. Complete quests, gather resources, and bond with your lovers while keeping your tribe safe on a deadly primitive world.

Four unique love interests await you in Tamer: King of Dinosaurs. Since Tamer: King of Dinosaurs is a harem game, you won’t have to worry about picking just one. All four women will fall in love with you as long as you complete the dating sim respect quests, and they do not have a problem sharing you with the others.

Once you’ve earned enough respect with each woman, you will be able to make love to them. You’ll have complete control of the position, camera angle, lighting, and pace. Our proprietary full-body performance capture technology is brought to life by a talented cast of professional actors, so every romance scene, every conflict, and every triumph is rooted in the context of our story.

Play as Victor Shelby, a Los Angeles animal control officer abducted by aliens and stranded on a deadly dinosaur planet where he must help a group of beautiful alien women survive. With nearly 6 hours of full-body cinematic performance capture and 28 "days" of in-game action, Tamer: King of Dinosaurs offers a gripping story filled with adventure, an engaging story, and fully explicit romance.

Craft and upgrade weapons like spears, clubs and axes to engage dinosaurs in brutal melee combat with your hunting partner, Sheela. Utilize the adrenaline system to unleash special attacks and even special over-the-top, gore-filled executions.

Tame dinosaurs and ride them across the map, encountering deadly apex predators and other dangerous dinosaurs that will hunt and chase you down. Don't just run - fight for your life with your spear or bow and arrows to escape certain death.

Sheela, the Huntress.

This stoic cat-like woman is skilled in combat and understands the dangers of this world. She’ll join you on most of your quests, help you build weapons, and provide you with combat training.

Galmine, the Gardener.

This beautiful woman has the sweetest personality you could imagine, and she loves to grow her vegetables and herbs. She’ll offer uplifting advice and provide you with recipes for food, potions, and anything else plant related.

Trel-Idil-Iria, Duchess of Family Iria, the Builder.

Trel is the most important, intelligent, and beautiful person in her world, and she’ll remind you of this every chance she gets. Despite her haughty personality, she really is a genius. Once you win her over, she’ll help you craft tools and build the fort.

Kacerie, the Stylist.

Pink haired and sassy, Kacerie comes from a world with slightly more advanced technology than our Earth. She doesn’t want to be on this planet, but that’s understandable. Once she forms a strong relationship with you, she’ll be able to help you with all the cosmetic nuances of women’s outfits and the new fort.
