Prehistoria
Type: Dinosaur zoo visit plus a little movie
Image Quality: Generally Passable
Scale: Good
Length: Medium

This is a bit odd in that the best part of the app is available as the demo. That would be the slow moving but interesting movie like experience. The other 5 scenes are all ones where you wander around a sort of virtual zoo exhibit of a dinosaur, though of course you are inside the exhibit with the animal(s). You can click on a dino for information about it and one of the scenes has several creatures and you wander around a bit more in it.

As with all the dino apps like this the graphics are more stepping into a PS2 world than stepping into a 'real' dino world. Still it is fun to see the fairly decent models and learn about the dinosaurs if you are so inclined. For about ten bucks, for this app and the next two, you can learn about the ancient reptiles, see dozens of them and watch a couple 'movies', all the while feeling that you are sort of there at least if they lived in a somewhat low rez world. Good bone crunching fun.
