About the Game

Find your cave

Your goal is simple: reach the cave before the cataclysm strikes. Dinosauria is a 3D survival runner set in a dynamic generated world, where every second of hesitation brings you closer to destruction.

You run as a legendary dinosaur through dangerous biomes, making decisions under constant time pressure.

Gameplay

Each level is a new survival challenge. Your task is to find the cave and take shelter before time runs out.

Along the way, you collect bones, eggs, and discover dinosaur cards that track your progress.
Some paths are faster but deadly. Others are longer, but safer.

Time Pressure

Every run is governed by the Cataclysm Bar.
When it fills up, the cataclysm enters its final phase - and you have only moments left to reach the cave.

The bar fills faster when you:

  • enter dangerous areas

  • hesitate or stop moving

  • mismanage your resources

At critical moments, you can make survival decisions - sacrificing collected bones or eggs to temporarily boost your core attributes.
Every choice has a cost. Time never stands still.

Biomes and Hazards

The world of Dinosauria consists of 5 unique biomes, each with its own survival rules.
Early stages let you learn the environment, while later ones relentlessly test your skills.

On your journey you will face:

  • hostile dinosaurs with unique behaviors

  • tornadoes, toxic zones, and burning volcanoes

  • earthquakes and collapsed mountain passes

Each environment requires a different strategy and quick reactions.

Progress Between Runs

After completing a level, you return to the lobby, where you:

  • gather bones, eggs, and dinosaur cards

  • unlock new abilities, such as jumping, dashing, or stronger attacks

  • prepare for longer and more dangerous expeditions

Progress is permanent, but every new run brings fresh challenges.

Cards

During gameplay, you discover dinosaur cards, which are stored in a Binder as a collection and a record of your discoveries in the world of Dinosauria.

The Cave

The cave is the only place where you can truly catch your breath.
Between runs, you prepare there for the next challenges.
You can personalize the area around the cave.
