<description>
<p>This is Pangea Software’s Nanosaur updated to run on modern systems. Originally released in 1998 as a Mac-only game, Nanosaur casts a cybernetic dinosaur from the future who’s sent back in time 20 minutes before a giant asteroid hits the Earth.</p>
<p>The Game Plot</p>
<p>You are a dinosaur (a Nanosaur to be exact) from the future who has traveled back in time to collect the eggs of 5 dinosaur species before the giant asteroid hits the earth. The "primitive" dinosaurs will attack you as you try to get their eggs, but just remember that it's for their own good that you blast them into oblivion!</p>
<p>The Game Play</p>
<p>Being a dinosaur from the future, you are equipped with several pieces of technology to help you in your mission.</p>

<p xml:lang="fr">Vous êtes un dinosaure du futur – un Nanosaur, pour être précis – qui a remonté le temps pour récupérer les œufs de 5 espèces de dinosaures juste avant que l’astéroïde géant ne s’écrase sur Terre. Les dinosaures “primitifs” vous attaqueront lorsque que vous tenterez de prendre leurs œufs : dites-vous juste que c’est pour leur propre bien que vous en faites de la chair à pâté !</p>

<p>Being a dinosaur from the future, you are equipped with several pieces of technology to help you in your mission:</p>
<p xml:lang="fr">Étant un dinosaure du futur, vous êtes équipé de gadgets ultra-sophistiqués pour mener votre mission à bien :</p>

<ul>
<li>Fusion Blaster: a multi-purpose weapon for killing things.</li>
<li>Jet Pack: For flying over things that might kill you.</li>
<li>Temporal Compass: for finding time portals.</li>
<li>GPS Locator: for figuring out where you are and where you should go.</li>
<li>Fusion Blaster: a multipurpose weapon for killing things.</li>
<li xml:lang="fr">Sulfateuse à fusion : une arme multifonction pour tuer des trucs.</li>

<li>Jet Pack: for flying over things that might kill you.</li>
<li xml:lang="fr">Réacteur dorsal : pour survoler les trucs qui veulent vous tuer.</li>

<li>Temporal Compass: for finding time portals.</li>
<li xml:lang="fr">Boussole temporelle : pour trouver les portails temporels.</li>

<li>GPS Locator: for figuring out where you are and where you should go.</li>
<li xml:lang="fr">Localisateur GPS : pour savoir où vous êtes et où aller.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can jump, swim, run around, jet around, shoot stuff, etc. The general rule to playing the game is "if it moves, kill it or it'll kill you." You only have 20 minutes to collect all 5 egg species so being efficient about your actions is critical.</p>
