About Dino Run DX

About this game

DINO RUN DX is an ongoing evolution of the classic prehistoric multiplayer racing game. Control your iconic raptor through an endless assortment of procedurally generated landscapes and outrun the ever-approaching WALL OF DOOM. Will you end up one of the millions of doomsday casualties, or will you ESCAPE EXTINCTION?

Featuring:

  • A unique experience every time you play... no two levels are ever the same.
  • 3 major single player gameplay modes: CHALLENGE, PLANET D and SPEEDRUN (currently 24 speedruns with more coming soon).
  • Realtime multiplayer with chat, matchmaking and more unique levels to race in. Climb the ranks and show your dominance!
  • Choose from a staggering number of hat and color combinations to hone your look... unlock even more hats by completing game milestones.
  • FREERUN MODE: turn off the doom, chat with other players during actual gameplay, spawn boulders and npc dinos, roleplay.... do what you want!

How is DX different than previous versions of the game?

If you've only played the web version from years ago, you'll find DX is a dramatic improvement with more levels, hats, and gameplay options. If you've played Dino Run SE, the major differences right now are completely redone backgrounds and an extra layer of polish, true fullscreen mode, controller support, Steamworks integration, improved multiplayer security, and a few more hats and colors to choose from. We are also currently working on even more improvements to the game and will continue to roll out new features as long as there is interest and support. This is our pledge to you! More info on upcoming features can be found at http://www.pixeljam.com/dinorun.

Fun Facts:

  • The original web version has been played over 100 million times (source: Mochibot)
  • Pixeljam, the creators of Dino Run, has made over 20 games since 2006.
  • Dino Run helped pioneer the "runner" genre of games before it was popularized on mobile and started to truly suck.
  • Dinosaurs did not actually wear hats, but there are tiny traces of them in the plastic tightening straps on all baseball caps.

Childhood game that is cheap, fun, and overall a blast to replay again.

Okay, so I'm not going to sugarcoat it, this review is a bit biased. Originally released in 2008 as a Flash game, Dino Run DX is an updated re-release with added content, well still remaining a relatively small file size. You play as a dinosaur and you're running from your impending doom through various levels where you can collect bones and eggs for points and unlockables. Simple on paper, but very addictive when you try to grind your time lower and lower with each run. As someone who has played and grew up on the original Flash game, this is a special treat to see. Customizing your dino, running alongside friends in multiplayer, even turning off the chasing doom to just relax and explore the simplistic, yet wonderful stages. Yes, it's not the best game ever made, and it's not for everyone. But this game came out at the right time in my life, my childhood, and found it's way back into my life as an adult. It's like rediscovering a small part of my past again, and I love every second of it.

Great game, loved it since it was originally a flash game. It's like the original browser game, but more! New levels, more hats, more dinos!
