Baby T-Rex Returns to Game Boy: A Classic Dinosaur Adventure Revived

Baby T-Rex, originally released in 1993, has made a surprise comeback for the Nintendo Game Boy via the Chromatic. The game, developed by Beam Software, places players in control of an feisty dinosaur tasked with navigating colourful levels, dodging obstacles, and collecting items along the way. Known for its bright visuals and straightforward mechanics, Baby T-Rex is a nostalgic favourite among fans who enjoyed the light-hearted fun on the go.

Today, fans can experience the title once again thanks to a new physical release from ModRetro. The revived cartridge faithfully preserves the original’s side-scrolling action and cute dinosaur protagonist.

Interested players can purchase Baby T-Rex through ModRetro, where it retails for approximately £28/$35. The packaging features artwork reminiscent of the original, adding a dose of 1990s nostalgia to any game shelf. With its family-friendly gameplay and distinct platforming segments, Baby T-Rex is a throwback platformer which will appeal to retro gamers who preferred the simpler times.

Interestingly, Baby T-Rex was released under different names in various regions, such as Agro Saur in Australia, Bamse in Sweden and We're Back! A Dinosaurs Story in North America.
