Ride the Lion Studios is an exciting new development team founded by New York Times best-selling author, Michael-Scott Earle, with the goal of bringing his many successful novels to life in the video game world. Our first project will be a high-quality adaptation of his most famous series: Tamer - King of Dinosaurs.
We’re a tightly knit team that has worked together for many years and our last project actually hit number one on Steam!
Tamer: King of Dinosaurs is a narrative-driven adventure game with a high-end performance capture pipeline and gameplay inspired by ARK: Survival Evolved and the Monster Hunter series.
The story follows a young man named Victor who has been abducted by aliens for unknown reasons and brought to a planet where he must fight for survival in a world overrun by vicious prehistoric beasts.
In addition to using his newfound taming powers to control dinosaurs and provide food and water for the women he has sworn to protect, their survival will involve a race against time to establish shelter before they are overrun by the impending migration of very hungry and dangerous monsters.
