ABOUT THE GAME
Dinopedia is a 3D educational video game aimed towards 7th graders, and made with the Unity 5 engine. You have finally gotten the opportunity to study under the famed Professor Sassifras! As his apprentice, you will use his time machine to travel back into the past into prehistoric times. Your job will be to snap as many photos of dinosaurs as you can so you can complete the Professor’s “Dinopedia”. Along the way, you’ll learn about many species of dinosaurs and evolution!
