One of a series of fully interactive comic book adventures for kids where you play as the heroic Victor Vector and his digital Saint-Bernard dog Yondo. They are field agents of The Museum of Fantastic Phenomena, and travel through time collecting unique items. In the games, the arch-villain Ram Axis, a virus spawned in the great crash of 2093, will often pop up in disguise in order to prevent their efforts. Players explore a virtual environment by clicking on the onscreen knobs and directional controls to move through the game. They click on images to talk to people, collect treasure and other items that may boost or diminish their energy level or are needed to solve puzzles. Information can also be retrieved from Yondo's data bank collar.
In this episode, your mission is to retrieve the last dinosaur egg in order to save the dinosaurs from extinction. You will go to the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous eras, where you'll see gigantic prehistoric creatures fighting each other while volcanoes erupt around them. In the journey you will also learn interesting information on prehistoric times and animal life. Another time traveler you will meet, named Delta Mode, can also be helpful in your search for the egg.
