About the Game

Humans had the silly idea of bringing dinosaurs back to life, and ever since, relationships between the two species have been strained. No dinosaurs wanted to become a cop, so you were created in a laboratory to become the only dinosaur cop. Every day, you ask yourself: are you making the world better for your dino peers, or are you just a tool of human propaganda?

Features:

  • A rich and funny story starring a dozen anthropomorphic dinosaurs, and other silly characters, entangled in personal drama and sociopolitical issues about the realities of dino life in a human world ;

  • Sniff out crimes thanks to your magnifying glass, your literal nose and other tools that will let you interact with your environment in clever ways ; 

  • Keep track of your investigation using an detailed node system and a timetable ;

  • About 10 hours of gameplay
