Dinosaur King

is a video game for the Nintendo DS game based on the Dinosaur King TV series. Plot Max, Rex, and Zoe, the members of the D-Team, find mysterious stones that allow them to summon dinosaurs, after creating special cards from fossils, using a special device called a Dinoshot. However, an evil group called the Alpha Gang steals a Dinoshot in order to create a dinosaur empire. It is the D-Team's job to stop the Alpha Gang. Gameplay Players gain new dinosaurs by restoring fossils through a minigame using the console's touchscreen to control a rock pick and microphone to blow away dust. The player has a limited amount of pick uses, and uncovering the entire fossil gives the player a rarer dinosaur than they would have usually gotten. Battles take place as random encounters on the overworld map. Each side has a maximum of three dinosaurs which they can send out. The battle system is based on the game of rock, paper, and scissors-winning allows the dinosaur to attack, losing allows the opponent dinosaur to attack, and a tie inflicts neutral damage to either side. Several of the moves in the game become more powerful according to wins or losses, or they allow attacks on a tie.
