Those of you who are already members of the Paleontology Coproliteposting group on Facebook likely already know about the runner game "THE BIG DIE". For the rest of you, you take control of a Lystrosaurus as the Siberian Traps erupt, and must jump over pits and obstacles as you flee to the safety of the Triassic Period. It's a pretty simply game, but a surprisingly fun diversion.

There's some fun background behind the creation of this game, too, which I try to summarize in my Dino Dad Review of the game.

One of the things that always makes me crack up are the randomly-generated subtitles on the start screen that change each time you die.

In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

The creator of "THE BIG DIE" is at it again with another humorous paleontology game. This time it's an Angry Birds style riff on the infamous Brian Ford's ridiculous "sex lakes" hypothesis called "Lemme Splash!"
Since, according to Ford, dinosaurs are clearly too big to walk, your job is to launch an amorous brachiosaur over otherwise impassable terrain to the sex lake where its partner awaits.
