  • Great App

    I don’t usually write reviews, but this app has helped with super quick search up of details on Ark animals.

    Pros:
    - Easy to search up creatures.
    - Simple easy to navigate layout.
    - Tips from community under each creature (breeding tips, taming, knockout, ect).
    - Calculator included, as well as comparisons between best Gatherers of certain resources. (Extremely helpful)
    - Fast, easy to copy admin commands, with additional options for creature spawning (Ie. Button toggle Tamed / Untamed, Level specific, ect)

    I’ve been using the wiki for any information I needed on creatures, as well as any admin commands, and it’s horribly tedious, but this app / website is great. Highly recommend.

    Only feedback as of right now is if interactive maps could be incorporated (spawn areas ect), but I’m no developer so I’m not sure if this can be incorporated or not, but if not, no big loss, still an incredibly helpful app.

  • Amazing tool

    Dododex is the Pokédex of ARK Survival Evolved. It’s got information on every dino in the game and allows for tips from other players with experience. However, I have found that the game lacks in some areas of information that I try to research, such as locations for dinos, materials or terrains. Other things like recipes, engrams and blueprints have limited info. Otherwise a great app with a lot of information which can be accessed by the touch of a button. Amazing work, love to see new features later on.

    Hey! The dino locations from the ARK Wiki are linked in the app (on the "More" tab) but there's currently a bug with ARK's wiki where they don't load properly. Unfortunately, I can't control that since it's not my website, but I'm working on transitioning the links to a new wiki that is still working. Regarding more recipes -- those will be coming too! :)
  • Insanely helpful

    This app is an absolute godsend when it comes to Ark guides. It’s so useful being able to see not only how much kibble it will take to tame a creature, but also the amount of darts to knock it out, whether it will need narcotics, how good the stats are etc etc. The benefits are limitless and the negatives are few and far between

    11/10 amazing app :)

  • Cant live without it!

    I have been using this app for many years, when mobile came out. It has saved me more times than I can count. Without Dododex, I would be completely lost with what to do in the world of taming in Ark. Before the simplified kibble system, each egg laying dino had its own kibble so it got a bit overwhelming in trying to remember all of them. Dododex has everything you need when it comes to taming, what is the best gatherer for each resource, etc. etc. Thank you, Dan, for creating such an amazing platform to reference while playing. 🥰

  • Must have tool

    Best buddy for your ark experience, for both new and veteran players.

    Not super needed, but I’d love to see a Dino color region feature, preferably with the ability to have a look at different Color’s on 3D rendered Dino’s, or if that was too hard atleast a picture of each Dino with a prominent color in each region so players can better see what region affects what area.

  • 😍😍

    This Dododex is so good cuz whenever I play ark I’m like what’s that what’s that what’s that and then I get the dododex and it tell a me all about thet creature it’s soooo good😍
  • Best game

    Best for helping me know how to tame a bronto and a theroizino
  • This is amazing but has yet to meet its full potential...

    Dododex is amazing, the people that make the tips, the fanfictioners on there, the helpfulness of the calculators, and what recipes and helps there are are awesome. It’s helpful if you want to tame, breed, kill, or otherwise interact with animals on ark. It’s even prelinked into the the ark mobile game so when you are looking at an animal there’s a button that switches apps over to dododex. That in and of itself in my opinion is far and beyond the duty the dododex creator even asked for by creating such an app and shows his determination to help ark players and geeks alike.
    However to reach its full potential it would be good for him to start putting in other features like resource calculators, or overviews about different things like supply drops, animal drops, or artefact rewards instead of giving links to the wiki where we have to dig through it to find this stuff bc it’s not readily accessible. That is the only thing that the Survive ARK Companion has over Dododex. In everything else Dododex completely outpaces it’s competition.
    So please start putting those in place because if you did... instead of being just a unfinished gem... it would become a resplendent and priceless gem.

    Hey! Thanks so much! A resource calculator will be coming in a future version of the app! In the next update, I'll be adding all items, and then in a following update I'm planning on implementing a resource calculator. :) Thank you so much for the five stars! Really appreciate it! More updates coming later this month!
  • If only I knew 3,000 hours earlier

    Playing Ark for my first 3,000 hours I tried to avoid aids and information, occasionally watching often misinformed tutorials.
    Using Dododex, I feel like I accomplish 5x as much in any day of gaming than I did before.

    The name also sits well with 90’s kid in me ☺️
  • If you play ark I highly suggest this app

    Dododex is a multiplatform tool that can help you calculate tames and dinos, levels, wasted point stats, resource maps, dino maps, this is all very useful for a beginning ark player, this has everything you need to survive the ark!

    I love this app alot, and my personal review would be 10 stars if that existed, if this app ever went away i dont know how i would play on new and unfamiliar maps, ark 2 is coming out soon, so dododex developers, im exited to see how you guys can get info on ark 2 and help people learn about the game!
