Description
Let’s dig up some dinosaurs! ARcheology uses the power of augmented reality (AR) to turn anywhere into a dinosaur museum. You can dig for bones in the bedroom, find skeletons in your shed and terrify yourself with a life-sized T-Rex.
ARcheology is really easy to use, which makes it great for young, would-be palaeontologists. Just open the app and point your phone at a flat bit of floor, confirm the placement and you’ll see the outline of your dig overlaid on the ground.
All you need to do now is get shovelling to discover the giant beast that’s lying there.
Tap on the screen and a progress bar shows how much earth you’ll need to shift. You don’t really need to look at it, though. The bones don’t take a lot of work to uncover.
When you’ve discovered your dinosaur the app will tell you what it is and urge you to move closer to find out some interesting facts about it.
Found your first dino and all of its bones? You can now either start another dig and discover a fresh skeleton, or you use the View option to make the current dinosaur appear upright, so you can view it from every angle.
It’s tons of fun for dino diggers of all ages.

Ratings and Reviews
My 5 and 3 year old love it
I wish we could have an indoor mode, with a slightly smaller scale
Because it’s really hard for little ones to visualise the dinos in small spaces
Outside it’s amazing tho
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your review, it’s so uplifting to hear your kids are having fun with it!
When in ‘View’ mode there is a button to change the scale of the dinosaur. I will aim to make it more clear in a future update, thanks to your helpful feedback.
Love it!
They have 5 dinosaurs but great game we need more of them!
Great fun for a four year old but needs camera
This an excellent app, my son loves it and we go hunting through the forest looking for bones.
However once you’ve found the bones there’s no way to take a photo of your child next to the assembled skeleton he just found. All you can do is take a screen shot which leaves the buttons on the screen
With the ability to take AR pictures of the dinosaurs discovered added to his App I would give this 5 stars.
Thanks.
