Undertale, Jurassic Park, and Phantasy Star collide in a '90s-inspired time-traveling dinosaur JRPG made by actual paleontologists
02.01.2024 - 22:14 / gamesradar.com
I already had a mountain of games from 2023 left to get through, and it seems another must-play for me quietly snuck out just before year's end. Dino Hazard: Chronos Blackout is a '90s-style JRPG that looks to be equal parts Undertale, Jurassic Park, and Phantasy Star, and it's almost like it was engineered to appeal to me, specifically.
Check out the trailer for Dino Hazard below and you'll get an idea of what I mean. The art style and character proportions look very much like those of Sega's classic Phantasy Star series, the dinosaur-infested island setting is straight out of Jurassic Park, and there's a promise that you "can solve conflicts with either HATE or LOVE strategies that influence the environment around you," which is about the most Undertale thing I've ever heard - plus there are those minigame-driven combat abilities.
You can check out the Steam page for more details, including some info on the wild futuristic plot involving a "malicious artificial intelligence system." Despite the outlandish sci-fi trappings, the game was "developed by a couple of paleontologists who want to share with the world their passion for science and games."
Literally, it's a "couple" of paleontologists - the husband and wife team of Tito Aureliano and Aline Ghilardi. In addition to field and academic work in Brazil, they've also spent years building Dino Hazard as a low-key multimedia franchise that includes a novel, comics, toys, and now, a video game. That's about the coolest family business I could ever imagine.
Dino Hazard had been in Early Access for years, and just went 1.0 on Steam on December 22, and it's 50% off until January 6. The trailer mentions releases for Switch, Xbox, and PS5, but there are no details on those versions just yet.
With Jurassic Park: Survival on the way, our list of the best dinosaur games is hopefully about to get some new competition.

Bandle Tale is unlike anything you’ve seen in the League of Legends universe
Bandle Tale: A League of Legends Story is the latest game from League of Legends indie game label Riot Forge, and it’s decidedly different from everything that came before it. While Riot Forge games likeThe Mageseeker, Convergence, and Song of Nunu have been more intense action League of Legends affairs, Bandle Tale is a comedic, cozy adventure with gameplay that shares more in common with Stardew Valley than League of Legends.

This Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom made a functional airship that doesn’t require energy cells
Something that always stuns me are the ways dedicated players find ways to push the limits of the games they play. Whether it’s Animal Crossing designers who know the perfect way to line up buildings to fake certain perspectives, or a Tears of the Kingdom player who created an ultra-fast flying machine by holding the fan up in a particular way, I’ve always appreciated the commitment and creativity that goes into pushing a game to its limit. I was doing the rounds on Reddit when I saw something that truly astounded me: Reddit user Scalhoun03 created a completely wind-powered airship in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

Major actors’ union SAG-AFTRA have raised hackles among a number of voice game performers after striking a deal with a company that wants to create AI replicas of actors’ voices for use in games, among other things. While the union claim that their agreement with Replica will allow for a “fair” and “ethical” approach to creating AI voices, it’s clear that a number of actors with credits in games from Baldur’s Gate 3, Mortal Kombat and Starfield to Apex Legends, World of Warcraft and Genshin Impact don’t agree.
