Exclusive skins

Exclusive Skins are unique skins that were obtainable by the player through special means. Only a limited number of Exclusive Skins are given out to particular players, such as developers and pre-release donators.

Players who do not own Exclusive Skins can still acquire one or both of their dinosaur’s parents have them. If one parent has the skin, the offspring has a 50% chance to inherit it. If both parents have the skin, then it is a 100% chance. The offspring cannot use the skin again or save it for later use if it dies unless they own the skin themself.

At the moment, there are eleven Exclusive Skins:

• Senoba’s Rex (Exclusive to Senoba)
• Rook’s Pteranodon (Exclusive to Rook)
• Glimmer Megalosaurus (Pre-release donor exclusive)
• Glimmer Mosasaurus (Pre-release donor exclusive)
• Glimmer Apatosaurus (Pre-release donor exclusive)
• Glimmer Acrocanthosaurus (Pre-release donor exclusive)
• Glimmer Tyrannosaurus (Pre-release donor exclusive)
• Phantom Glimmer Pteranodon (Event prize)
• Magma Glimmer Saichania (Event prize)
• Glimmer Saichania (Exclusive to Howdn)
• Glimmer Oryctodromeus (Exclusive to Mexymii)

• The Rook Pteranodon is a non-customizable Pteranodon skin that superficially resembles a mechanical pteranodon. It is exclusive to the developer Rook.

Donor-exclusive Skins

"Glimmer" skins are aptly named after their ability to glow in the dark.

• The Glimmer Megalosaurus skin is only available for players who donated for the Mighty Megalosaurus rank, which was $70. This is no longer purchasable.

• Similarly, the Glimmer Mosasaurus skin is also only available for players who donated for the Menacing Mosasaurus rank, which was $550. This as well is no longer purchasable.

• The Glimmer Acrocanthosaurus skin is no different. It was $120, gave access to the Accredited Acrocanthosaurus rank and is no longer purchasable.

• The Glimmer Apatosaurus skin is only available for players who donated for the Amazing Apatosaurus rank, which was $2,800. Players who donated for the Amazing Apatosaurus rank not only received the Glimmer Apatosaurus skin, but could request for a creature of their choice to be added to the game. At the moment, this rank can still be purchased and you can request your own creature, but you won't get the Glimmer Apatosaurus skin - instead you will eventually receive the glimmer skin of the creature you requested!

Event-exclusive Skins

The Phantom Glimmer Pteranodon skin was only available for players who participated and won in the Pteranodon Video Contest of June 2019. This makes it the first Glimmer skin to not be a donated rank.

The Magma Glimmer Saichania skin is an event prize for the participants of the Saichania Video Contest of January 2020. This is the second glimmer skin to be non-donor, and is the only current example of a secondary glimmer skin for a creature. The event where one can obtain this skin is ongoing! More information is on the Discord!

Upcoming Exclusive Skins

In the future, it is very likely that every creature will have its own glimmer skin. Similarly to the Pteranodon Video Contest, future community events may give them out - so if you wish to obtain one, stay sharp!
