Castaway

- William McInnes The McLeod River Post

Ark Survival Evolved is a survival game if you haven’t guessed already, you are stranded on an island inhabited by prehistori­c dinosaurs and some mythical ones too.

Your Objective is to survive by constructi­ng a house and slowly learning how to create new and improved equipment as you level up, however you must create some weapons to defend yourself against the less friendly dinosaurs. There is plenty to do and see in Ark from diving to the depths of the sea exploring caves and seeing the exotic life from Anglerfish to Megalodons and even a Giant Squid. 2r if that doesn’t take your fancy then you can explore the huge island that is overflowin­g with many species of dinosaurs from big to small, but if you are going to explore then make sure you can defend yourself as you are not always the hunter.

Ark is a unique experience, there have been many variations of survival of survival games ranging from stranded on an island from a plane crash or to the classic Zombie survival. Ark brings something new and creative, bringing the fossils from the past to the present, which are sure to leave you in awe. There is not really a story to follow in this, you wake up on an island and must survive, however there are boss’s you can fight once you have located the artifacts that are scattered all over the island.

This game is basically a more interactiv­e version of Jurassic Park, expect it puts you out there with them and leaves you to fend for yourself. Ark, like many games has an online feature which allows you to Moin a server with random people across the globe or if you rather, you can create a world with your friends and begin taming dinosaurs to create your own base to battle the elements of the island as a team.
