How it feels

A chaotic and colorful prehistoric romp with a goofy, old-school arcade feel.

What players say

Players are split on this remake. Long-time fans of the SNES original mostly hate the floaty controls, unresponsive feel and Flash-like art, insisting the arcade version this is based on is inferior. Some find it fun in co-op after adjusting expectations, but nearly everyone says it is very short, 15 to 45 minutes, and only worth it on a deep sale.
