Primal Genesis:
In a remote research facility, cutting-edge genetic engineering has brought dinosaurs back from extinction. For years, the facility’s electric fences have kept these creatures contained—until now. A massive storm strikes, plunging the facility into darkness and disabling the security systems. Without the electric barriers, the raptors—agile and lethal—begin escaping their enclosures, quickly turning the facility into a deadly hunting ground.

Armed with only a tranquillizer gun - you play as a rookie employee, just one month into the job and already scarred by a recent, eerily similar disaster. With chaos unfolding once again, you're thrown into the deep end. The mission is clear: enter the raptor enclosures, brave the darkness, and re-enable the security fences before these predators overrun the facility. But with every shadow hiding danger and time slipping away, survival becomes a desperate race against the inevitable.
