Training will turn your dinosaur into a vicious fighting
machine.
There are
3
different training exercises along with a
sparring exercise that allows you to fight against a
comnuter controlled oooonent. Each trainina exercise is
designed
to
improve
your
skill in each of the thee combat
moves: FEROCITY, CUNNING. and TOUGHNESS. To exit
the training selection ~creens,.~ress the MODE key.
After each repetition of an exercise,
your dinosaur will
show you a happy face
(mouth open) if the exercise was
done correctly and a mad face (mouth closed) if
it
was
not. Here is how each exercise works:
FEROCITY
&
To increase your dinosaurs FEROCITY you
must cultivate its natural aggression by
chasing and catching either a pig or a human.
Your prey will appear in front of your
dinosaur and you must rapidly press the key
that corresponds with the direction the prey
.
When you are close to the prey, press the
ENTER key
to
catch
it.
So, for example, if your din0
appears facing to the left and a pig appears and runs to
the left, quickly press the
4
arrow key until your din0 is
close to the pig. Now press the ENTER key and watch
your
din0 use
its'
ferocity to attack the pig.

To increase your dinosaur's TOUGHNESS,
your
din0 must practice knocking down
trees. Your dinosaur will appear facing a
tree.

make your
din0 head-butt the tree. If you hit the tree
hard and often,

will break in two.
To increase your dinosaur's CUNNING, you
must train in the tail sweep exercise. Your
din0 will be positioned with his back and
tail facing you. The
dino's prey will appear
from either the left or right side and will

will see the prey fly through the air. Remember, this
exercise is all about timing and you must do the

G&
This training exercise will allow you to fight
against a randomly selected, computer
controlled opponent. Each match consists
of 9
rouncts. The first dinosaur to win
5
rounds wins the match. In each round, you
have the chance to use one combat move:
FEROCITY MOVE Press the ENTER key
CUNNING MOVE Press the
b
arrow key
TOUGHNESS MOVE Press the
4
arrow key.
There are
3
important points to consider when fighting
and training:
Timing
-
Since each round consists of one move per
dinosaur, choosing to move first or second plays an
important part in your success.
If
you choose to move
first
your attack has a better chance of success. However,
if you move second, you have a chance of countering
vnllr
nnnnnpntc
attark
Move Selection
-
Each move has a counter move that
will beat it. Knowing your enemy's moves and the correct
counters can be your most devastating skill.
Skill Stats -The higher your scores are for each attack
move (FEROCITY,
CUNNING,TOUGHNESS),the more
powerful your attack will be.
Train to increase these stats. Also note your best and
weakest move so you may use this to your advantage.
Sometimes your dinosaur gets out of control
or becomes sluggish and lazy and needs
some discipline. You can select this activity
to discipline your dinosaur. This will raise
its' DISCIPLINE score.
Disciplining your dinosaur can make the health go down
so you must learn to balance your dinosaur's need for
discipline with
itstother needs. NOTE: If you wish to
terminate a dinosaur's training, continuously discipline
your dinosaur until the health drops to
0 (at which point
the dinosaur retires). You can then choose another
dinosaur. This is especially useful when you are training
3
dinosaurs and would like to get rid of one so you may
choose another. However, if your dinosaur dies, you will
not be able to activate that particular dinosaur unless
the unit is reset.
After frequent training your dinosaur may
need a shower to clean up.
Fighting can be dirty work, and your dinosaur does not
like to be overly dirty or bloody. When your dinosaur
needs a cleaning, select this activity.
Sometimes the rigors of training can make
your dinosaur sick or injured. When your
dinosaur's HEALTH gets low, a visit to the
DOCTOR may provide a small boost.
The DOCTOR can onlv do so much for an unhealthy
dinosaur and understands that the healing process tak&
time. The DOCTOR may only wish to treat your dinosaur
once a day. If your
dinosaurdoes not wish to go, but you
think
it
is necessary, press the ENTER button twice to
force a visit. This may not be good for the dinosaur.
