==Gameplay==
In Dino Run, the player controls small yellow dinosaur who must run across a pixel art style prehistoric earth that is succumbing to the extinction of the dinosaurs. If the player stops running or is too slow, a wall of debris coming from the left side of the screen will kill them, and the player will have to use a time shift (if any are left) to retry the level. As the player progresses through the seven levels, they will earn DNA points that they can use to improve their stats such as speed and jump height.
Further into the game, the levels will also feature more and more difficult environments to traverse, with steeper rocks to climb, more snapping tree branches and large dinosaurs getting in the way. There are some powerups and items that will help the player such as a glowing ball, that makes it so that anything that the player runs into is blasted out of the way. The player can also jump into the clutches of flying dinosaurs in order to be carried a short distance across the level. If the player manages to get to the end of the last level, they will reach a safe haven for dinosaurs featuring a lush environment which contrasts to the apocalyptic earth.
