Virtual Reality Game Transports You to the Jurassic Period

Picture1If you have dreams of visiting the age of the dinosaurs, virtual reality will likely give you the closest chance you'll get in your lifetime. According to The Verge, one of the newest pieces of media to combine VR and time travel is Time Machine, a game that transports players to the year 155 million BCE.

If you'd prefer to hang out with massive, land-roaming dinosaurs instead, virtual reality can help you out with that, too. In a 4-minute VR video released earlier this year, Sir David Attenborough introduces viewers to the largest dinosaur ever discovered, the Titanosaur. It's a slightly calmer experience than the science fiction world of Time Machine. Owners of a Rift or VIVE headset can download the new game from Steam for $30.
