I can be a Dinosaur Finder is an educational game that shows children how a
paleontologist works. You join Eddie the Kangaroo, Katie the Chameleon and
Roofus the dog and meet a famous paleontologist named Dr. Rockhound, only to
find him disappointed that he can’t find his needed fossil.

Who can Dr. Rockhound count on to help him find the missing fossil? You can,
with the help of your animal friends. Dr. Rockhound will give you a map to
travel to where in the world that creature exsisted, one of the areas may have
a tent to show where you are already or a flag to show that you already looked
in that area.

When you try to dig the fossil up there will be three tools a jackhammer, a
pickaxe and a brush, you must use each tool in an order. Sometimes after you
uncover the rock you might get a little surprise that will either be a funny
prehistoric short or a fact about prehistoric life. If you get to any fossils
Eddie, Katie or Roofus might tell you when to use another tool. After you
uncover the whole fossil you have assemble it. If you get the wrong fossil Dr.
Rockhound will always give you another chance to find the needed fossil. After
you find the needed fossil and finish assembling it they will have a short
movie with that prehistoric animal and their will be an explanation about its
life and personality. You can also look around the screen for highlighting
images that may hold some Prehistoric life information.
