In the crowded platformer genre, a new game needs unique mechanics to succeed—and Dino Quake delivers, blending seismic platforming action with a prehistoric twist.
The core gameplay loop is straightforward: climb upward, then drop down to generate an earthquake that stuns foes. Follow up by kicking them away to clear the area. This requires careful route planning both on the way up and back down.
Dino Quake emphasizes pure arcade action, but it’s more than a nostalgia trip. With multiple paths through each vibrant world, there’s always something fresh to uncover.
Crunchy!You’ll also find all the hallmarks of a classic retro platformer, including funky chiptune music and beautifully crisp 16-bit visuals. And with additional characters to unlock, the game offers more depth than its "pure arcade" description suggests.
Best of all, Dino Quake is coming to both iOS and Android on June 19th. So if you’re in the mood to stomp some pesky prehistoric creatures, this might be the game for you.
