Dino Rush

Dino Rush – Could this be the reason why dinosaurs became extinct?

Be prepared to not only go back in time but be entertained by one of the most cutest little dinosaurs you’ve probably seen.

As some of you may be aware there were a couple of kinds of dinosaurs, meat eaters and fruit & veg eaters (if you want to get technical these were carnivores and herbivores). Also if you really want to get picky then there were dinosaurs which liked to eat both meat and veg (omnivores).

Anyway, in Dino Rush you must help the hungry little dinosaur get as far as it can, as fast as it can but without coming into contact with the various dangers that you’ll encounter along the way. To do this you have to tap the screen to get your character to jump and munch on all the fruit you see. As you go along there are various power-ups to boost your progress, ranging from; superman (flying), food magnet and invincibility.

As pointed out, you have to be careful as you go along the levels as there are various things which will stop your game short. Cactus plants, big dinosaurs, lava and beyond will all hinder you and drain your energy – and if you’re not careful it’ll stop you dead in your tracks and force your game to be over. The only way you can keep your health up is by eating fruit!

It swiftly becomes a bit of a balancing act to jump for food and avoid coming into contact with the various nasties on the level. Each time you jump or fly you’ll cause your dinosaurs health to fall but as long as you gobble up the fruit then you’ll more than counteract the energy used!

Awkwardly enough the more food you munch, the faster your dinosaur will travel – which adds to the risks and fun this little title has to offer.

Ultimately this is a game well worth downloading and hugely entertaining as it’s perfect for a few minutes of distraction or a marathon effort in trying to beat your own personal best. This is one of those titles which just puts a smile on your face and leaves it there.
