  • Harvest, Hunt and Build: Cut down trees and turn them into a basic home, which you can quickly expand into a Jurassic estate. Hunt for meat, scavenge for plants (or start your own garden!)
  • Customize Everything: An extensive crafting system invites you to mix and match materials scavenged from the island, while also modifying the colors, textures, shapes, and styles

Description

Prepare for the ultimate dinosaur-themed adventure - now you can take your tribe anywhere, at home or on the go! Stranded on a mysterious prehistoric island, you must explore its vast biomes as you begin to hunt, harvest, craft tools, grow crops and build shelters to survive. Use cunning and skill to kill, tame, breed, and even ride dinosaurs and other primitive beasts living on "The ARK." Advance your technology from primitive stone tools to T-Rex- mounted laser cannons, as you group up with thousands of players online or enjoy a solo Jurassic experience. Enjoy the new Single Player Settings mode in ARK, which speeds up earning XP, crafting, taming dynos and more. The overall difficulty of the game is also altered for solo players, and with these new settings, setting out for a single-player adventure in the world of ARK is a smoother and more enjoyable experience for players who prefer to go it alone!

    • Super fun game but damaged switch card
Platform For Display: Nintendo Switch Edition: Standard Edition
I really enjoy this game. I purchased it exactly 31 days ago and missed the return date by one day lol. I think the game card is damaged as it keeps crashing unexpectedly. None of my other Switch games have been an issue. I followed some Switch troubleshooting, but the game continues to crash. I guess I'll purchase a new card. ... show more

    • Minecraft with Dinosaurs!
Platform For Display: Nintendo Switch Edition: Standard Edition
First off, for people that have never played this game before: It's basically high-def Minecraft with dinosaurs (although you can't burrow underground here). You build, catch, kill, tame, and hopefully mostly survive. - Make a tiny house before nightfall - Catch and tame critters before you can ride them, use them for their resources - Build a fence around said critters (so they don't get eaten by something else; you CAN park them and leave them though) - Plant crops and farm if you want. It's cool. Just be a farmer. A boring old farmer. On Magical Dinosaur-Riding Island - If you die you respawn naked but your stuff stays with your corpse and is retrievable for a set amount of time - Metal Pickaxes and Metal Hatchets - No Diamond Sword, but you can build several types of guns - There is also paint in case after building all available guns, you decide you want to emblazon the side of your base with the Confederate flag - Bright, noticeable colors are probably better for small bases and platforms meant to let you land your flying mounts for a stamina recharge, because a forced landing in a swamp will probably kill you - Mine are pink and yellow in honor of Elle Woods. Highly visible And now on to the actual review: I also have this on the PS4, and while there is a noticeable depletion of texture quality I haven't had the same problems with lag others are reporting. It does, however, take several minutes to load up worlds initially. I took away a star for the texture quality. The other issues ARK has are issues it carries across platforms: dinosaurs spontaneously disappearing (falling through the map and reappearing at the exact center of the island as the legend goes), the odd way it differenciates between "this is indoors" and "this is outdoors", and the building system having issues with slopes despite pretty much the entire Island being sloped (Get used to support columns and ramps. This will be on the Test. The consequence for failing The Test is death). I did not take stars away for these issues because, as previously noted, I've played it on the PS4 and expected those code gremlins to survive the port, because why would they fix them for only one of the four systems on which this game is available? Still worthwhile although I would avoid playing in mobile as the loss of texture makes it pretty painful, at least for me. ... show more

Works great took 15 mins to download is kinda grainy but loads just fine. Controls are basically the same. Only thing i dont like is that you get one map and you have to beat it to open another.

    • DO NOT BUY!! THIS IS ALL BUT UNPLAYABLE!!
Platform For Display: Nintendo Switch Edition: Standard Edition
Unless you’re already an avid lover of ark like me, it’s really not worth it. This game isn’t finished and it’s full of glitches, from the ground being invisible to eggs and other items falling through the ground to the built in cheats the game gives you not functioninglu properly. The controls are also pretty frustrating and there’s no clear manual on how to use a lot of them. Many controls like whistling (hold b) and transferring a stack of items (hold a) I had to figure out on my own. Unless this game gets patched to fix the many many glitches in it it’s really not worth the price. Not to mention the fact that you only receive one map rather than at least the two maps accessible for free on the PC version. Edit: the game also continuously crashes, often times making you lose as much as hours of work. If you are crazy enough to bother with this you have to save and exit regularly to avoid losing progress. When I attempted caving the game completely deleted all the Dinos I took with me, glitches out of existence, no where to be found. There goes my pack of high level sabers ... show more
