Paleo Dive

Turning the dream of exploring the prehistoric seafloor into reality is a brilliant idea that can be simulated through VR. The sensation and movement of the water are realistically rendered, and the movement of underwater creatures is reproduced with considerable naturalness. Exploring the seafloor, searching for collectibles, gathering photos and DNA of prehistoric creatures to upgrade your gear and abilities, and unlocking locked maps are also fun elements that keep me engaged in underwater exploration. Interacting directly with ancient creatures seen in encyclopedias also provides a strong educational effect. One suggestion for addition is that if a rough list for the complete prehistoric animals available on each map is presented, it would add more motivation to collecting photos and DNA. And in addition to animals, collecting and identifying information about the many plant species represented in the game would also have an educational effect. Merci Lionel!

There's clearly a lot of love put into this game, and recent updates have really streamlined the experience. The animals and environments are gorgeous and the progression/interactivity is improved from Subside, which was a clear inspiration for this game. On the downside, the in-game camera is janky and I wish the aquarium had a layout that let you see more species at once.

This is a childhood dream come true... Wow what a fantastic game! And it really is that, a game! not just a simulator. you actively have to and want to collect new items and I find myself scavenging around nonstop. Genuine JAWDROPPING moments. Especially on the deeper maps. I was just absolutely terrified. Those maps are almost like a horror experience. So be ready! And the night mode!!! awesome Really immersive and beautiful graphics. Maybe just a tad bit blurry sometimes and dont turn the resolution to 1.5 in settings. max 1.25 because at 1.5 there is some strange artefact on screen from sunlight. The Fish AI can be a bit improved but it doesnt bother me much. They do just kind of ignore you. In normal mode apparently you get attacked. Wish there was an option to change from easy to normal mid game because I accidentally chose easy (you dont get attacked then)

I had accepted the fact I would never get to swim around in an anciet ocean untl now. I only have a short play time so far, though I can see myself spending a lot more time. The graphics are impressive and swimming around in an anciet ocean at night is breathtaking. The creatures seem to be meticulously modelled and I stuck my face in to quite a few. I usually play games like this with everything unlocked and just relax looking at things. Having said that, unlocking things in the spirit of discovery fits this game. If you have ever wanted to swim around hundreds of millions of years ago, you have to buy this game. Edit: not sure if I haven't played enough to work it out, but some more information in game about the era you are diving in and the critters you have discovered would be nice.

Absolutely amazing. I am a vr gamer and I absolutely love these realistic aquatic experiences. To date subside has been the best one. When it comes to realistic graphics, realistic, natural physics, I would say this game is about 85% there in comparison. But this game definitely makes up for that slight lack behind subside. Being able to go around take pictures you get 3-D models of the animals, taking DNA samples and the optional beautiful music and having a very wide variety of earths prehistoric animals through earth. History definitely makes up for that. So while subside is more realistic and natural and immersive all the extra features at this game has, I would have to say it makes it a little better than subside. And I really appreciate that I can set the game to the animals won't attack me. It's a good way to help build up your courage to go up to them and get used to them and enjoy their beauty and ferocity. I also really like the aquarium where you can sit back and see all the creatures that you've gotten your photographs in DNA sample of love and a nice aquarium very cool touch. And the collectibles are fun as well. So I definitely recommend paleo dive to anyone with a…

So great! I dreamed of diving with trilobites since I was a kid. Just amazing 💖
