cheesy 90s fmv + dinosaurs = win
I've never heard of this game until recently, but I think it's a lot of fun. kinda like a roguelike with dinos and cheesy fmv, major plus in my book (the roguelike aspect not so much). gotta learn about the dinos from the encyclopedia (voiced but no subtitles or any written info in the entire game), then travel to one of 3 periods, gather clues, find the dino in danger and save them. do it 3 times for a win, 3 failures lead to a game over. short runs with a timer based on actions, not actual time (24 hours, moving a cell on the map is half an hour, running into quicksand takes away more, etc.). not sure if maps/dinos/clues are randomized or not, the overworld map is the same in all 3 time periods, but you can only find certain dinos in certain periods. the theme song is awesome, exactly what you'd expect from a game like this. the quickstart pdf provided by the current publisher is fairly useful (except for the part where it says the game doesn't use the mouse, as it's completely mouse-driven), but do yourself a favor and mount the .iso (cd image) in the install folder and find the actual 16-page manual with all the dino infos, etc. much more convenient than learning all of it from the game. definitely recommended for dino/cheese lovers, it's a hidden gem, if not entirely polished. (the mouse cursor is a bit off, needs some getting used to until you can avoid misclicks, might be because of windowed dosbox or something on my end.)
