About this game
Master Higgins searches the islands for Tina, running, jumping and throwing axes through hostile terrain. Eggs contain items, though not all are helpful, and food is needed to keep energy up during the journey. Dinosaurs change traversal and attack: a Pteranodon can fly and drop rocks, while an Elasmosaurus swims. The item menu at an area’s start lets collected equipment be kept for later, connecting preparation to the next stretch of platforming.
