Dinsun Expert Review

Our Expert Score

84/100

Jurassic World Alive is the definitive 'location-based' game for dinosaur enthusiasts. It takes the Pokémon GO formula and adds a significantly deeper combat system that feels more like a traditional turn-based RPG. Collecting DNA via the 'drone strike' mini-game is genuinely fun and requires a level of skill that keeps the experience engaging even when you aren't walking.

The real hook, however, is the hybrid system. Combining DNA from different species to create terrifying new dinosaurs like the Indominus Rex is incredibly satisfying and provides a long-term goal that keeps you coming back. The AR 'photomode' is also surprisingly high-quality, allowing you to see the scale of these creatures in your own backyard. It’s a polished, content-heavy experience that breathes life into the franchise.

location spawning needs fixing
Tue Jun 12 2018 Like A Boss Bacon

I’ll start off this review agreeing that this does resemble Pokémon Go, however there are many things that separate the two. First off the only thing really similar between the two is that they both use GPS to make their worlds. It’d be very unfair to call it a Pokemon Go rip-off because in my opinion it’s very much it’s own game. There’s too many good things about this game to list so I’ll just state some of the bad-ish ones: The fact that some dinosaurs only appear in certain environments is a good idea however it doesn’t work very well in my opinion and favors certain areas; for instance at my house I can only seem to find four legged dinosaurs who’s natural habitats in real life vary quite a bit. At my friends house however he seems to find loads of Spinosaurus’ (Sorry if I spelt it wrong) and other predators. The environment around his house isn’t actually any different from mine, he actually lives down the street from me. I can assure you that the area around his house would not be hospitable for a Spinosaurus so that confuses me a little but not as much as the fact that carnivores spawn around his house yet herbivores spawn around mine; even though there is nothing that separates our houses more than 2 miles. I understand that location matters but we live in the same town and the conditions are the same at both of our houses. I hope this review can help someone wanting to get this game and even maybe one of the developers, thank you for your time.

Son Loves This Game: Huge BUT and BEWARE
Fri Jul 01 2022 CaramelCraze

For the concept and dino collecting and graphics this game would get 5 stars. BUT and these are big ones, like other reviews mention, the game has some bugs and major glitches. This in regards to unmatched level battles against other players, rigged matches where you lose when you should win, and freezing or the game playing for you when it shouldn’t and you end up losing. Also the points and bonuses in the game that we should have received we weren’t getting, the numbers on the screen didn’t match or allocate to what we should have received. Now for the BEWARE. I have had to restart this game from scratch for my son twice already, once because of the above issues being so bad, that it was unplayable and so unenjoyable. The second time it was a bit better with the aforementioned, however one day when he got on, his whole collection of Dino’s (which was better then the first) and other items were wiped clean, he had nothing left. He was so upset and cried so hard, it broke my heart to pieces and I refused to let him continue playing. That was maybe 2 months ago, and because he is in absolute love with dinos, yet again he wants me to re-download it for the 3rd time. Hopefully someone who can really fix these issues sees this and looks into it. It’s sad and unfair that people waste good time and money to only end up sobbing in something they truly enjoy with all their heart.

Very obsessing and good game but needs more features and bug fixes
Thu Apr 23 2020 Gypsie Bravo

JW alive has a been a favorite of mine even before it came out (I pre-registered). And it has served me well. There are very annoying bugs going around the game, and recommend those should be fixed. Like if I accidentally exit the app, it can restart the whole game, make this magenta colored screen, or basically kick me out of the battle I’m in and take control of my team with AI saying “Catching up to present”. Also, Ludia, I think the game can have a few more features like: alliance peace treaty’s/alliance friends and alliance wars/conflicts, and betting like for cash, coin or DNA in battles and stuff like that. Also, the AI I face in campaign and just normal battles, get like 75% critical chance for them (while it says they still have 5%), while I still have 5%, they also know what your going for so they can perfectly counter the attack. But, anyways, Ludia has done such a good job with COVID-19 situation, there adding giga scents, which attract a variety of different dinosaurs, and have increased the drone meter for normal and VIP. Speaking of VIP, VIP should be lowered to $5 a month instead of $10 a month just because of its abilities and features. And Ludia, some back round info, I honestly got this game noticed by me from TheGamingBeaver, so when you get the time, give him some JW the game and JW alive bucks (also say it was from me). Thank Ludia! (If you even read this).

Awesome Game!
Wed Apr 15 2020 Molliwogger

Thank you so much for making this game! I love playing it and it’s so fun! I could not recommend it more! Very well done graphics and the sounds that the dinosaurs make are SO realistic. Plus, it’s free so I didn’t have to pay for it! Major acknowledgement to the people who made it! I started playing this game because I love dinosaurs and this looked pretty cool. So I downloaded it. And now I’m so glad I did! I’ve been playing it for a while now and I think it’s the best game I’ve ever played. I kind of like Pokémon Go and this is kind of like it...but WAY better I’m so happy I got the game. I’ve never seen a game as cool as this one. Thank you very much for making this game so much fun! I think the best part is that it has new stuff and always creates more. Some games I’ve played before aren’t that fun because it’s the same thing. Like only one basic idea, but this one has so many different features that all go along very well with the point of the game. There’s battling, collecting dinosaurs, evolving them into huge strong dinosaurs, and SO many dinosaurs. I never get bored because just when I think I’ve collected all the species, a new amazing one comes around and then once I get that one a new one comes along. Besides that you can join groups made up of other players and there’s nest strikes were you can battle Dino’s for super amazing stuff! I think it’s just amazing and nothing less.

Love the game and the added raids!
Sat Nov 07 2020 .:.khaleesi.:.

I rarely review games because they are so costly. Not to mention the time it takes to refresh or start another section of the game. Jurassic World Live however can be played completely free. I admit I have put money into this game to level faster but it’s definitely not required. You can easily play this game for hours everyday and I love the pvp and raids. The map of the area you are in is really awesome as well. You obtain dino dna from literally your own backyard. You can walk or drive to obtain even more if you are so inclined but there is plenty in your own home area. Combining the dna to make stronger super dinos can be very slow at times but what fun would it be if you didn’t have to work for the “Unique” and “Apex” creatures. And to obtain the Apex creatures it does take the coordination of your alliance but that really turns into a lot of fun. There is limited chat capability and I’m sure that is to keep everyone safe but that can be a little frustrating at times. Especially when you are coordinating a raid with your alliance but Discord pretty much solves that issue. I’ve met a lot of great people. I highly recommend this game. It’s quite ingenious and they are constantly giving us new updates. (Developers please stop changing the dinos “powers” around, it’s frustrating when we work so hard on a creature and then it’s worthless at the next update). Thank you for making such an amazing game!!!!!

If you are a dinosaur lover, you will think it’s a dream come true, I think this is one of the best dinosaur games ever created! And you’ll love this game! What are you freaking waiting for? PRESS DOWNLOAD! Well, this is my new entry. The game is really cool and I’ve read some critical reviews, but most of them are about the the unrealistic details and updates fixing nothing, I do agree that there is lots of things to control. But it being unrealistic is not just because they want you to pay money for a stegosaurs betting the legendary indo rex, it’s just the point of the game! To get stronger! Most of the updates add new stuff into the game. Developer’s if your reading this maybe look at other reviews to see any bugs you can fix, including this: I’m on mobile iPad. And it’s kinda old... but sometimes (now just started) the game lags a TON. It started out of nowhere, it lags when the other player (PVP battles) makes a move, then lags when when it’s your turn, do you cant press anything while it loads! Then un lags when ur turn is over! I’ve lost many times because of this, after a hour or so 30 minutes maybe, it stopped, still lagged a bit, out of the battles and in, but then the game choose my own moves for battling! Instantly! Like it was one of those bots on battle things on the map. Please look into this so I know if it’s my device or not. Thanks!

More Addicting Than Pokemon Go!
Sun Aug 05 2018 SDNOIRE

I’ve been in love with dinosaurs since i was just a little child. Ive watched every Jurassic Park movie over and over again and that just really kindled my love for dinosaurs. This game is not only addicting but its actually full of things to do. This game has great mechanics for the dino battling system that actually makes you really think how you will make your team. It isnt just go for the strongest because there are others things to consider like their shield, speed and critical hit chance that can make this game very diverse in the battling section. In the roaming section, this game masters. You have a drone this time (in game) that you use to shoot darts and dinos you find in the world to make that dinosaur. You can level them up to increase their health and damage as well as combining certain dinos together to make hybrids which is not a chance you get that often might i add. This game makes you feel so rewarded for getting epic and rare dinosaurs in your world its just so addicting. Finally, the incubator and cash system. People may think having micro-transactions in this would make it easy to level up and do better. Maybe, but i never felt like i needed to do it because the game gives you cash by doing challenges and finding supply drops around the world which are so easy to find. So, overall, this game is awesomely balanced and just a very big treat for dinosaur fans.

J.W. Alive: Honest To God
Sun Sep 01 2024 Clark Kent, Daily Planet

J.W. Alive is a wonderful game! The graphics are amazing, It’s easier to play in a rural area than similar games like Pokemon Go, AND the variation of creatures is SPECTACULAR. It’s surprisingly easy to level up if you know what you’re doing. Otherwise, it can take months. J.W. Alive is definitely a grind, especially if you’re going for creatures like an Indoraptor, or anything above the Legendary Rarity. Which is one of the things I deeply respect about the game. Also, along with these pros, is a hefty list of cons. It includes a lot of in-app purchases as an alternative for grinding, which makes a lot of people think it’s pay to play. It isn’t, but I’ll admit, it is a ton of work. And, a little more than most games, it’s quite prone to glitches. However, that might be different, depending on the type of phone you have. I can’t say for sure, because you may have an entirely different experience. One last thing you need to know! The only reason it’s rated 18+ is for social features almost required to play the game. This is known as Alliances. It does have some blood, but if you don’t want your kids seeing blood splatters as the dinos attack each other, you can just go into settings, and disable blood. Also, for the social features, I have been a part of 9 different alliances, and all of them barely use the chat anyway. As this is… honestly, a not very popular game, the community is not really something to worry about. Thank you for reading, and please enjoy J.W. Alive!
