Based on the animated film, We’re Back! A Dinosaur’s Story for the SNES is a 1993 side-scrolling platformer developed by Visual Concepts. You take control of Rex the tyrannosaurus on a quest to rescue his human friends, Louie and Cecilia, from the villainous Professor Screweyes. The game features large character sprites and distinct momentum-based platforming as you navigate through various colorful stages.
How to Play
The objective is to guide Rex to the end of each stage while avoiding hazards and defeating enemies.
- D-pad (Arrow Keys): Move and crouch.
- B Button (Z Key): Jump.
- Y Button (X Key): Attack (throw rocks or tail-swipe, depending on your power level).
- X / A Buttons (A / S Keys): Summon dinosaur companions to help overcome specific obstacles.
- Start (Enter): Pause the game.
Tips
- Rex’s available attacks change depending on his current power level, so try to avoid taking damage to hold onto your strongest moves.
- The movement in this game relies heavily on momentum. Take your time during tricky platforming sections to avoid sliding off narrow ledges.
- If you find yourself stuck at a seemingly impossible gap or barrier, remember to call upon your dinosaur companions (like Elsa or Woog) for assistance.
