A beautiful point-and-click Adventure Game for DOS PCs and Apple Macintosh from 1995, developed by Cryo Interactive. The plot follows Adam, the young prince of Mo, in his quest to unite various races of Men and various species of Dinosaurs. The game features nice puzzles, a detailed backstory, impressive graphics for its time and a truly awesome soundtrack.The story itself is fairly simple; a long time ago in an alternative version of Earth, dinosaurs and humans lived together in harmony. Then, the evil army of Tyrann came down from the north, threatening to destroy everything. To stop them, a great human king rose from the kingdom of Mashaar. This King was known as the Architect, and he designed citadels to be built by dinosaurs while humans fed and protected them. This provided human armies an impenetrable garrison from which to defend, protecting whole regions from Tyrann attack. The evil predators were beaten off, and kept confined to the far north, too afraid to attack.Then, the Enslaver, the son of the Architect, came to power. He hated all of the dinosaurs, and most humans too. He tore down most of the citadels, and the trust that once united humans and dinosaurs was lost. After the Enslaver died, the human king Gregor came to power in Mashaar. At about this time, the Tyrann returned in force, this time lead by a truly horrifying creature calling himself Moorkus Rex. At first, Gregor fought the Tyrann, but after the loss of his wife and daughter, he lost the will to fight and permanently withdrew to the last remaining place of safety, the Citadel of Mo. Years later, you play as Prince Adam, heir to the throne of Mashaar. You have lived all your life in this safe haven. You have come of age, and long to see the world, but your father forbids it. The game begins when a Pterodactyl named Eloi arrives at Mo with news from the north...

Dragon-in-Chief: The Tyrann are the genuine threat. Moorkus Rex never leaves his lair, lies literally every time he opens his maw, and underneath the fearsome exterior is a tiny little mouse, which the tablets reveal at the end.

The Sociopath: The Enslaver, who sent the dinosaurs and humans through hell just because he hated them and had no qualms injuring or even claiming the lives of others to suit his needs.

Stripperiffic: Almost all of the female humans are this. The Kobu tribeswomen wear nothing more than bikinis - which look more like something the average person would wear, not the chainmail bikinis one might imagine a tribe of amazons would wear. The Tribe of the Embalmers and the queen of the Chorrians are the most blatant examples of this trope, being that straps and a loincloth are the only things keeping them from showing anything indecent.

Chekhov's Gun: Staring at you the whole time you play, your cube-shaped mouse cursor. When you finally assemble the tablets, your mouse cursor is replaced by the resulting cube, allowing you to defeat Moorkus Rex merely by clicking him. Doubles as Foreshadowing.

Furry Confusion: Several of the main characters — Dina and Eloi, for example — are Mesozoic reptiles and perfectly conversant in English. But quite a few more (the sauropods, velociraptors, mosasaurs) only speak very simple tongues, or don't speak at all.

Vestigial Empire: Mo, at least at the start of the game. King Gregor hides in the one remaining citadel as Moorkus Rex terrorizes the world. Mo was implied to have been much larger under the reign of Adam's great-grandfather, the Architect, but his grandfather, the Enslaver, ruined things. As for Gregor, Adam's father, he at least made some effort to fight the Tyrann in his younger days, but stopped trying to restore Mo after his children were born, likely for fear of risking them.
