Tom Mason's Dinosaurs for Hire

About

Tom Mason's Dinosaurs for Hire tasks you with defending Earth from bizarre robot invaders as one of three dinosaurs. Choose between Archie the T-Rex, Lorenzo the stylish Triceratops, or the volatile one-eyed Stegosaurus Reese. Each has distinct traits that shape how you approach levels. Blast enemies from all directions while dodging attacks on platforming stages. Melee strikes come into play when enemies get too close. Every level culminates in a boss fight, testing your shooting and timing skills. The game’s two-player co-op mode lets partners team up for shared chaos. Released in 1993, it leans into over-the-top action with simple but functional controls. While the graphics and level design show their age, the combination of dinosaur personalities and chaotic combat created a memorable niche title. Players on forums often cite its quirky charm and the joy of playing with a friend, even if the difficulty spikes can feel abrupt.
