Play Kyouryuu Ouja Ketteisen - Kyouryuu Grand Prix (J)(SCZ) Online

Kyouryuu Ouja Ketteisen - Kyouryuu Grand Prix came out for the Nintendo DS in 2006, developed by Rocket Company. It was part of that wave of quirky, experimental titles that really used the dual screens and touch controls in ways you didn't see on other consoles at the time.

You pick a dinosaur and race it on chaotic tracks filled with hazards like lava pits and falling meteors. The main goal is to finish first, but you spend just as much time shoving other racers off the course or stealing their power-ups. The touch screen handles item selection and some special attacks, while the top screen shows the frantic race. It's not a deep sim; the tracks are short, the AI is aggressive, and it's all about causing as much mayhem as possible to get ahead. Controlling your dino as you slam an opponent into a wall feels satisfyingly destructive.
