The adventure

Glowing fossils all across the galaxy

  1. The Asteroid Belt: magenta nebula, a ringed planet, floating rocks, the T-Rex roaring, Krânebots running away, Tommy jumping, Cosmo and a glowing fossil.

    66 million years ago, an ark from the stars tried to save the dinosaurs. A meteor shower scattered them across faraway planets… where they became glowing fossils.

  2. A cream-colored egg speckled with lilac, split by a glowing cyan crack. Cosmo: a purple baby dino with big eyes and glowing cyan plates.

    Today, Tommy, a young paleontologist, digs up a mysterious egg. Out comes Cosmo, a baby dino who glows whenever a fossil is hidden nearby!

  3. Professor Krâne: a skull-shaped helmet with red goggles, in a flying saucer, under a red spotlight. Dark silhouette of a giant robot T-Rex with a red eye: the final boss, still a secret.

    But Professor Krâne is stealing the fossils to build Mega-Rex, a giant robot T-Rex. It's up to you and Cosmo to stop him!

Heroes and villains

  • Tommy: young paleontologist with an explorer hat, a red T-shirt and blue pants, under an orange spotlight.

    A young paleontologist. That's you! Dress him up with the amber you find: helmets, suits, hats.

  • Cosmo: a purple baby dino with big eyes and glowing cyan plates.

    Cosmo

    Your best friend: he glows when a fossil is hidden nearby, and he catches you if you fall.

  • Professor Krâne: a skull-shaped helmet with red goggles, in a flying saucer, under a red spotlight.

    He steals fossils to build a robot T-Rex. More silly than mean!

  • Krânebot: a small round drone with a propeller and a skull face.

    Krânebots

    Krâne's drone. Slow and predictable: if it touches you, you just move back a little.

How to play

Two buttons, that's all

  • JUMP

    Jump! And later, keep your finger down to glide.

  • ACTION

    Dig, smash, charge, roar… The button does the right thing at the right time.

  • Cosmo helps you

    If you fall, he catches you. No lives, no game over.

The game screen in the Quarry: Tommy digs and Cosmo lights up a glowing fossil; on the left, the button to move; on the right, the buttons to act and jump.
The game screen: move on the left, jump and act on the right.
