How to play Dino Valley Escape

A hungry T-rex is stomping along the top of the cliff, and the only way out is down. Keep dropping from ledge to ledge before the screen carries you up into its jaws. The deeper you go, the more the valley changes: from green jungle cliffs to a red rock canyon, and finally to a glowing lava cave.

Controls

• ← → or A D: run left and right
• P: pause · Esc: boss key · Enter: start / play again
• Phone and tablet: hold the left or right half of the screen

Ledges

• Grassy rock: safe, restores 1 HP the first time you land on it
• Thorny vines: costs 5 HP
• Rolling log: carries you left or right
• Giant mushroom: bounces you up, so watch out for the T-rex
• Cracked sandstone: crumbles a moment after you step on it

Daily Challenge

Every day at 00:00 UTC there’s a new valley, and it’s the same for every player in the world. Revives are off, so it’s a fair race. Share how deep you got and challenge your friends.

Tips

• Don’t ride a ledge all the way up to the T-rex. Step off early and keep falling.
• Healing only happens the first time you land on each grassy ledge, so keep moving down.
• A mushroom near the top of the screen will bounce you straight into its mouth.

About this game

Dino Valley Escape is an original browser game in the endless-falling genre that filled school computer labs in the late 90s. The dinosaur, the explorer, the valley, the code and the sound are all made from scratch.
