This was a pleasant jumping game that was thoughtful and addictive.

The Good
Basically, you are a time traveller on a mission to collect dinosaur eggs. But aside from the various insects and snakes that you want to avoid touching for fear of contamination, you must also keep a fire lit in order to keep the mommy dinosaur from returning to protect her nest. If the fire goes out, then mommy dino will put her foot, in the form of a giant dinosaur leg that comes down to squish anyone that is unable to evade the area.

Each level is completed when all eggs are either collected of destroyed, though you get more points for successfully returning eggs to your time machine. As levels are completed, they became steadily more challenging, but gameplay is balanced to keep it fun.

The Bad
This was a balanced game that even my mother enjoyed. I cannot say anything bad about this one.



The Bottom Line
Sounds and graphics and synth music were excellent for the time, and this would be a worthwhile game to include as part of a classic games compilation.
