Dinosaur is a microgame in 9-Volt & 18-Volt's mode in Game & Wario, Gamer. It can also be played individually as a Cluck-A-Pop souvenir, titled BALLOON FIGHTER: Dinosaur. It appears to be based on an iconic scene from the film Jurassic Park.
Gameplay[edit]
The microgame involves a dinosaur chasing after the player's character(s). They must hold left or right on the or to avoid being eaten by it when it bites. If the D-pad or stick is no longer held, the character will return to the center lane.
The dinosaur will not do sweeping bites despite how it tilts its head, so that if its head leans left, it will attack on the left, and the same procedure for when it leans right. Remaining in the middle lane will always lead to a loss.
- 1st level difficulty: The player controls a car. The dinosaur takes a long time to attack.
- 2nd level difficulty: The player controls a runner. The dinosaur takes little time to attack, and may hesitate before it attacks.
- 3rd level difficulty: The player controls two men on unicycles, who hold a relay baton together. The dinosaur attacks almost instantly, can hesitate, and may attack twice.
