About This Game

  • Wordless point-and-click adventure — no dialogue, no subtitles, just animation, sound, and visual storytelling.

  • An unlikely friendship in a hostile world — a wordless story of bravery, trust, and survival.

  • Brains over brawn — outsmart dinosaurs, distract barbarians, and puzzle your way out of deadly situations.

  • A vivid prehistoric world — trek through jungles, valleys, canyons, caves, and wild dinosaur territory.

  • Gorgeous hand-drawn pixel art brought to life with cinematic frame-by-frame animation.

  • An immersive soundtrack blending tribal rhythms with eerie sci-fi synthesizers.

A glowing stone crashes from the sky into a young hunter’s village. Its arrival draws a bloodthirsty tribe, who attack the settlement and enslave her people.

Barely escaping into the jungle, she discovers the stone’s true origin: a stranded spaceman whose damaged pod depends on it.

Together, this unlikely pair must cross dinosaur-infested lands to free her tribe and find a way to send him home.


Theropods is a classic point-and-click adventure built around visual logic. Watch how characters move, how creatures behave, and how each scene changes as you poke, prod, and experiment.

Instead of fighting your way through danger, you solve your way through it — distracting predators, avoiding enemies, triggering reactions, and finding clever ways past situations too dangerous to face head-on.

Theropods replaces dialogue trees, long conversations, and text walls with gestures, expressions, sound, and visual storytelling. The story unfolds through action: what characters do, what they notice, and what changes around them.

With no subtitles or text-heavy exposition to translate, the adventure is built to be understood by players anywhere in the world.
