Dinosaur typifies why most serious gamers stay away from movie-to-video-game properties. More often than not, they don't play well or look anything like the films they are meant to re-create. While there are exceptions, Dinosaur is the rule.
As you have probably guessed from the Disney logo on the front of the packaging, Dinosaur is an action-adventure that is based on the Disney animated feature film of the same name. The plot and dialogue of Dinosaur is irritating, but not as much as the awkward control and the substandard graphics.

The game puts you in control of three characters: Aladar, a large iguanodon who relies on his swift charge and tail slap; Zini, a lemur who can jump and run very fast; and Flia, a pteranodon who can fly and glide through levels and is also the master of a swoop attack. All of the prehistoric beasts' skills are designed to complement each other. As you make your way through the game, you must use their skills in tandem to traverse the game's various stages. The PlayStation controller's shoulder buttons allow you to switch between characters.
