Inside the World of Dinosaurs
© 2012 M5859 Studios
This dramatic dinosaur encyclopedia contains a library of 60 animated, roaring dinosaurs, as well as biographical facts on a set of famous dinosaur hunters. Testers noted that some of the objects don't look as clear as TouchPress references, but "they still look cool." You can either explore the screens, one at a time, or listen to each page read aloud by British actor Steven Fry. Every dinosaur and object can be spun around in 3D motion, allowing you study the visual details such as skin texture and color. You can also view fight sequences from any angle. The dinosaurs feature "real" sounds and animation. Content includes 310 3D models, 60 realistic dinosaurs and 40 recreations of dinosaurs fighting. There's a total of 200 pages of text, and five hours of narration. All in all, this is a beautiful, dinosaur rich resource. Note that it takes up nearly a gigabyte of storage.
