Dinolords, which appears on Steam, presents itself in an initial trailer first like a classic strategy game, but then comes the twist: dinosaurs. How these giants fit into the medieval England, you can find out here on MeinMMO.
What kind of game is this? Dinolords is a real-time strategy game in which you build your medieval city and fight against your enemies.
The game is announced on Steam for PC. However, a precise release date is not yet known.
Before you learn more about the game, you can watch the trailer here:
How do the medieval and dinosaurs fit together? In 985 A.D., the Vikings discovered strange eggs on their journey to Greenland. From these hatched dinosaurs, which were then taken back to Scandinavia by the Vikings, tamed and prepared for battle.
In 1002, Sven Forkbeard – the then King of Denmark – led the attack on England for the first time with dinosaurs. The English were completely caught off guard and lost the battles against the Vikings.
Now Edmund II, the son of the English king, is England’s only hope and is sent out to defend his kingdom.
What does the trailer show? The trailer starts just like a classic strategy game. You are thrown into an uninhabited area, collect materials, first build a small village, and then grow larger until you have established your own medieval city.
Then comes the first attack from enemy troops. At first, nothing unusual, until the music changes and you know that the twist is about to happen. Shortly thereafter, the carnivore comes crashing out of the forest with its rider.
The giant has quickly breached the city wall and created an entrance for the enemy troops before ultimately going down himself, which, however, cost a lot of arrows.

I have been waiting for something like this since my childhood. A game that focuses on two of my favorite things. […]

I like how the music emphasizes this transition. From ‘Oh no, we are being attacked by fantasy soldiers’ to ‘Oh shit, a carnivore is tearing down our walls’
