I remember very little and could be mixing multiple games.

The main things are:

It had a very nice cartoon style graphics

It had an overarching story with characters that give instructions like quests to progress the story and

you have resource deposits that you need to exploit by building associated buildings and progressing through the eras. The gameplay view was like in age of empires where you only see the tiles that you have scouts checkout. That's mostly it, I could not progress beyond some early stage.

Some distinct features that may be mixing my memory are:

There were some blue raptor type enemies or mobs

There was a shaman that was one of the quest giving characters

The icon had a cartoon type eye I believe or a raptor
