Dinosaur King, called Kodai Ouja Kyouryuu King: 7-tsu no Kakera (古代王者 恐竜キング 7つのかけら, literally "Ancient Ruler Dinosaur King: The 7 Fragments") in Japan, is an RPG developed by Climax Entertainment and published by Sega for the Nintendo DS. The game is based on Sega's Dinosaur King anime.
Dinosaur King plays very similarly to the Pokemon games, where the player hunts for dinosaurs to use in proxy battles with enemy characters who also possess dinosaurs. Rather than simply capturing wild dinosaurs, the player must excavate, clean and resurrect fossilised dinosaurs.
