Jurassic World Alive

Explore your surroundings searching for dinosaurs. Collect them and create new species and fight with your team in Jurassic World Alive for Android

The augmented reality game Jurassic World

Pokémon GO marked a real milestone in augmented reality applied to mobile video games, and the game development studio Ludia Inc. wants to find its place in this genre with a game of the same style, trading Pokémons for dinosaurs: Jurassic World Alive.

Find and collect dinosaurs like in Pokémon GO

As a new member of the Dinosaur Protection Group (DPG), our goal is to save dinosaurs from extinction through the following actions, performed on an interface built with Google Maps, just like in Niantic's big hit:

• Explore a world full of dinosaurs using map geolocation technology.
• Access all kinds of dinosaur species with a drone capable of collecting DNA samples.
• Create new creatures by combining this DNA to improve their skills and abilities.
• Fight with a team of dinosaurs to defend against different threats and compete online in 7 different arenas.
• Visit supply points to get coins and ammo for our drone.

For now, although it sounds really interesting, this Jurassic World game has some limitations: its performance needs improvement, it takes too long to load, and the AR mode only works with Samsung Galaxy S8 and higher and Google Pixel with Android 7.0 or higher. Additionally, if you want to access the online options, you have to pay a $10 monthly subscription, which is by no means cheap. However, let's take the opportunity to see how it develops in future updates.

Requirements and further information:

• Minimum operating system requirements: Android 4.4.
• The app offers in-app purchases.
