Players choose from a roster of dinosaur and prehistoric creature fighters and battle in side-view one-on-one matches. The controls center on movement, jumping, attacks, and throws, with some characters able to string together basic combos. Each fight ends when a health bar is depleted or the timer runs out, and victories advance the player through the match sequence. Positioning, attack range, and grab timing are especially important, and each character has its own size and rhythm.

Dino Rex

A selectable dinosaur fighter that relies on charges and close-range power attacks.

Gorilla

A strength-focused prehistoric beast with an emphasis on throws and direct brawling.

Triceratops

A heavy, defensive triceratops character that pressures opponents with charges and headbutts.

Tyrannosaurus

A signature T. rex-style fighter with strong offense and powerful rush attacks.

Use spacing to avoid pointless trades and look for openings to grab or launch basic strings. Against larger, slower opponents, keep moving and punish recovery frames with throws or quick attacks. If your character has a rush move, save it for moments when the opponent is committed to an attack or landing. Learning each fighter's simple combo routes will improve consistency more than risky sequences.
