What Is the Dinosaur Game?
This is our take on the classic endless-runner game — jump your dinosaur over cacti as the game speeds up the longer you survive. It's simple to pick up in seconds, but the constantly increasing speed makes it genuinely challenging to master, since your reaction window shrinks with every obstacle you clear.
Tips to Get a Higher Score
- Jump a little later rather than earlier — jumping too soon means you land right as the next cactus appears.
- Stay focused on the upcoming obstacle, not your current score.
- Keep a steady rhythm rather than panicking as speed increases — tension leads to mistimed jumps.
- Practice short runs specifically at the higher speed thresholds you tend to die at.
FAQ's
Does the game get harder over time?
Yes — speed increases the longer you survive, making timing progressively more difficult.
Can I play with a mouse instead of the keyboard?
Yes, clicking or tapping the game area works the same as pressing spacebar.
Is my high score saved?
Yes, if you're logged in, your best score saves to the leaderboard automatically.
Is there a way to win the game?
No — like the original, it's an endless runner with no final level. The goal is simply to beat your own best distance.
