Short description · 278 / 300Survive the past. Tame the future. Suddenly awakened on a primal world filled with dinosaurs and humans struggling for dominance, you must team-up with legendary heroes to confront powerful dark forces. Saddle up, and join the definitive next-gen survival experience with ARK 2!
First sentence never names the genre. It opens: "Survive the past."
Sequel is never mentioned. The game name signals a sequel but the short description doesn't say so.
A rewritten draft built from your own words is in the full report.
Screenshot audit measured brightness, store order
Steam shows 4 to 5 thumbnails before the arrow. Red = near-black (under 30/255), amber = dark (under 45).
First five screenshots vs the games Steam shows next to you average brightness, 0–255
