Save the Dinos is a computer game created by Kaibridge Games[1] and published by Aspyr Media in 2007.[2] Kaibridge originally published the game independently under the title Bone Monkeys vs. Dinosaurs in 2006 prior to its release by Aspyr.[3][4] The game was designed by Greg Johnson to make use of an animation engine technology called DinoMorph[5][6] developed at the University of Oregon.[7] The object of the game was to save skeletal dinosaurs from the evil bone monkeys that swarmed and tried to break them into pieces by shooting a beachball cannon at the monkeys to knock them away from the dinosaur. It featured skeletal dinosaurs rigged with physics and a 2.5D cartoonish style. Gameplay also included educational elements to teach concepts in paleontology to children as they played the game.[8]
