Gameplay & Plot
The game attempts to teach children about asthma. Years ago, the meteors have struck the prehistoric city of San Saurian. The explosions covered the earth with clouds of dust, thus causing asthma in the dinosaur world. The dinosaurs built a mighty wind machine to clear the air, but their plans were thwarted by Mr. Rexo, who stole the machine, hid its pieces over San Saurian and forced other dinosaurs to protect them. The two friends, Bronkie and Trakie, with the help of their sidekicks, Sam and Kyla, must find the missing machine parts before the dust returns and save the planet. Bronkie and Trakie can develop shortness of breath from tar, cigarette smoke, furry animals, and other obstacles. Bonus games include learning the proper use of the inhaler and other daily facts of life for people with asthma.
