DINO EGGS:
Saving the dinosaurs
from extinction
-- one egg at a time
-- since 1983
Dino Smurf
DINO
EGGS (1983) was also known to many as
DINO SMURF.
DINO SMURF
-- a widely-distributed parody of
DINO EGGS (and of course Smurfs) -- was
the first part of a planned trilogy of hacked games by
Dead Smurf Software (Andrew Johnson and Preston
Nevins). Castle Smurfenstein (Castle
Wolfenstein) was the second part of the trilogy.
In DINO SMURF, Time
Master Tim became Smurf Butcher Bob, as he tried to save
his children by going back in time and destroying the smurf's prehistoric ancestors (including the now extinct
orange smurfs).
