In an eggshell…
Dinowaurs is a 1-on-1 real-time strategy/arena combat multiplayer Flash game. Phew… There’s a lot more to Dinowaurs than that short-but-to-the-point sentence, so we’ll attempt to illustrate more about the game in a FAQ. If you have questions, please reply in the comments below, and we’ll answer those that are most… frequent.
Thanks!
FAQ
What is Dinowaurs?
Dinowaurs recreates the childhood joy of fighting dinosaurs against each other. In the game, two opposing teams of villagers attempt to gain each other’s land by strapping crazy weapons to dinosaurs and forcing them to fight each other. The dinosaurs themselves are actually oblivious to the fact that they’re fighting.
Dinowaurs is a free-to-play multiplayer online combat/strategy game played in real-time. It has MMO-like persistence and character customization, and can be played in your web browser if you have Flash 9.
You play the game by (indirectly) controlling a dinosaur that can be equipped with weapons meant to destroy the enemy’s dinosaur and villages in an arena. Each village produces gold and allows you to buy and equip weapons there using a simple drag-and-drop interface.
Once your dino is equipped with up to two weapons, you can go out and attack the enemy. Be careful of enemy villages, since they’ll attack you with some of the same weapons you have. The other player will of course be trying to do the same to you. If you kill the enemy dino, it will hatch out of a new egg at its nearest village.
If you destroy an enemy’s village, you can build your own village there instead. Once you capture all the villages in the arena, you win.
Each player gets up to three dinosaurs per account. Upon creation of a dinosaur, the player chooses one of four herbivorous dinosaur species. Dinosaurs can then be customized with built-in, unlockable, and purchasable accessories, like helmets, tattoos, suits, and more. Extra weapons will also be available at a later time.
When will I be able to play Dinowaurs?
Dinowaurs will be released in Early Fall 2008 as part of Kongregate’s Premium Development Program.
However, before that point, we’ll be looking for private beta testers from all over the world, especially those that don’t speak or read much English. If you’re interested in applying for private beta testing, contact us and let us know!
