The campaign, stage by stage

Eight tribes, twelve stages each, ninety-six missions. Every briefing below is the game’s own text; every map is drawn from the actual mission data in the pack, not redrawn by hand.

How a stage is put together

The map

Each tribe has its own version of every stage — in the pack the map sits at index stage × 8 + tribe, so there are ninety-six separate maps, not twelve maps with different starting corners. They grow with the campaign: stage one is 48×48 tiles, the last stages are 256×176.

The opening picture

A full-screen painting with the briefing text on top. It depends only on the stage number, so all eight tribes see the same twelve pictures — the text over them is what differs.

The objective

Read straight out of the briefing header: gather food, build a certain number of buildings, wipe out a named tribe, capture a sanctuary, fetch the legendary weapon, or kill every dinosaur on the map.

The reward

On victory the game shows either a painting or a movie. Seven stages have movies (1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 11, 12) and seven have paintings (2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10); stages 7 and 8 have both, and stage 12 ends the campaign.

One thing the files give away: the ending picture is looked up per tribe, but all eight entries in the pack point at the same image. Whoever you play, the campaign ends on the same screen.

Tyrano

1 Lake Dream

The Tyrano, the Primitive Year 972

  • Acquire Food over 3,000 units

There were two mountains in the Jurassic Island whereas most islands had a mountain. And also there was a lake called Lake Dream between the mountains. After the severe conflicts between tribes, the Tyrano arrived on the Island and occupied some parts of the Lake. They had none in their hands, but beasts and dinosaurs were waiting for them there.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. A slow crawl over a field of bones: skulls, tusks, a dinosaur's open jaw on red ground. Not one human figure.

Where it leads. Stage one is the same for every tribe: gather three thousand food. Survive, in other words. The movie shows what this land lives on — what dies on it. Stage two is where the tribe first builds barracks and pens, turning "we eat" into "we can fight".

2 The Unit Creating Dinosaur

The Tyrano, the Primitive Year 974

  • Build three Barracks
  • Build three units creating Velociraptor

The Tyrano who inhabited the lakeside thought of building an advanced unit, and they started to build Food Storage to store food, and the unit, Velociraptor, to create and train them. They were skilled in hunting beasts and training the Velociraptor. The Tyrano were getting more advanced, but they didn't know that the Radumba had lived in their area.

3 Secure a Hunting Ground

The Tyrano, the Primitive Year 999

  • Terminate the Kanoose

The Tyrano wanted to expand their hunting ground and to get rid of other tribes from the Jurassic Island. They harbored an ambition for living on the Island as the leader, and built new units to train Velociraptor as well as Triceratops. Also the young Tyrano became Muscle Men enough to hunt and fight. They found other tribe living on the Island when they had hunted far away from their ground. The name of the tribe was the Kanoose, and they used magic strangely dressed like female. The Tyrano were going to attack them to command.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. Nine seconds: a man in furs stands with a spear beside a torch, the camera pushing in on his face and chest. Nothing else in frame.

Where it leads. Stage three is the first real war: the game in the tribe's grounds has run out and a neighbour is in the way. The movie marks not the victory but the fact that the tribe now has a warrior in it. Before this it had hunters. Stage four continues the same war, and there is no going back from it.

4 Fighting against the Kanoose

The Tyrano, the Primitive Year 1002

  • Terminate the Kanoose

At last the Tyrano had expanded their territorial possessions away from the Dream Lake, but they were attacked by the Kanoose in succession. They had a hard time to fight against the Kanoose's magic although they already had Diloposaurus to pour a harmful poison. As the Kanoose's attack were getting more persistent and skillful, they finally decided to look for the Kanoose's stronghold and destroyed it at once. But could they find and destroy the headquarters?

5 The Search for the Legendary Weapon

The Tyrano, the Primitive Year 1005

  • Acquire the Legendary Weapon

Utamasha, the greatest chief of the Tyrano, had died leaving a secret behind, but before his death, he had known that the legendary weapon was in the island. Some of Tyrano who had a confidence of Utamasha's word began to leave their village to look for the said weapon.

0:19 — a pillar of light comes down between the rocks and a man forms inside it, standing on a green circle.
What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. A pillar of white light falls between dark rocks; inside it, on a green circle, a human figure gathers itself together — first an outline, then a whole man — and the light goes out.

Where it leads. Stage five is named the same for every tribe: acquire the legendary weapon. Those weapons were left by the twelve tribes who lived here before. The movie does not show the object but what comes back into the world with it: a man literally arrives from where men are not supposed to walk. On stage six that weapon is used to take a neighbour's sanctuary — the first foreign capital to fall.

6 The Power of Moonlight Sword

The Tyrano, the Primitive Year 1124

  • Capture the Kanoose's Sanctuary

In receipt of Utamasha's dying wish, the Tyrano had finally found the legendary weapon in a mystical place. The weapon they had acquired was the Moonlight Sword. It produced an annihilating power that the Tyrano could hunt the beasts as well as the dinosaurs and defeat other tribes attacking them without difficulties. Upon returning to their village, they found their place totally-ruined by the Kanoose. They advanced on the Kanoose's village to take avenge on them.

7 The Revolt of Dinosaurs

The Tyrano, the Primitive Year 1240

  • Terminate all Dinosaurs

At last the Tyrano captured the Kanoose, and both tribes were harmonized gradually. When they went hunting, they divided equally whatever they hunted and lived together in peace. But, unluckily an accident happened. Dinosaurs which only appeared in a hunting ground, attack their village because there was not enough food. Many of them died and their buildings were destroyed. Besides some of Velociraptor and Triceratops who the Tyrano trained in earnest also died. Although each tribes repulsed revolt of dinosaurs , their young peoples got lost. This was called, "the worst era of the Jurassic Island".

0:10 — a dead dinosaur on red ground; the camera runs the length of its body up to the head.
What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. The camera travels along the carcass of a dead dinosaur, tail to head, and stops on the jaws.

Where it leads. Stage seven is the dinosaur uprising, the only stage where the enemy is not a tribe. The animals went hungry and turned on everyone; the objective is to kill every last one. The movie sums it up drily: you won, and there is nothing here to look at. This is where the campaign changes scale — from here on it is blocs, alliances and total war, not squabbles with the neighbours.

8 The Dawning of Jurassic Island

The Tyrano, Primitive Year 1255

  • Capture the Romack's Sanctuary
  • Capture the Masai's Sanctuary

The Tyrano came to hold off the invasion of dinosaurs, and they tried to power over other tribes. But the Romack and the Masai did not want to be ruled, and so both tribes attacked the Tyrano. But in return the Tyrano fought to death to colonize both. Now the Tyrano's fighting-power was greatly increasing as they had participated in many battles. Especially, Velociraptor was suitable to lure the enemy out because their movement was very fast.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. Stone faces set in the ground, light spreading above them, then a white beam striking down into them and holding until the end.

Where it leads. Stage eight is the first with two objectives at once: take the sanctuaries of two tribes. By now the island is split into an east and a west, and the war has stopped being a neighbours' quarrel. The idols are among the few things left of the earlier inhabitants; the light on them means an old place of power is working again, and one of the eight now owns it.

9 The Search for Food

The Tyrano, Primitive Year 1268

  • Terminate all the enemies

The Tyrano went to war with other tribes. The war was not to annihilate or harmonize the other tribes but to make them slaves. They tried to win back their honor. Looking for the food was not easy because they hunted too much. But they wanted to be real master of Jurassic Island to security foodstuff.

10 Invasion

The Tyrano, Primitive Year 1279

  • Terminate all the enemies

Invaders occupied in the west part of Jurassic Island. They were consist of famous warriors and wanted to conquer the Tyrano and other three tribes. Could the Tyrano and other three tribes protect themselves against the persistent attack of their invaders?........

11 Peace and Harmony

The Tyrano, Primitive Year 1290

  • Terminate all the enemies

Many primitives died during battle. The Tyrano found the place where invaders lived through prisoners. But invaders were already unified and their power was also strong. The Tyrano decided to conquer all tribes in the Jurassic Island. That resulted in confusion within the Island.

0:18 — a horned skull alone on scorched ground under a green and red sky, the camera closing in.
What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. An empty scorched plain, a green and red sky, a horned skull in the middle of it. The camera walks slowly up to it, and that is all.

Where it leads. Stage eleven is the last before the finale, and by then one tribe stands over the others. The movie shows the price: the land is empty. Then comes stage twelve, the year 1399, where it all starts again — "War-To-Death".

12 War - To - Death

The Tyrano, Primitive Year 1399

  • Terminate all the enemies

It took hundred of years after the great confusion. Heroes of the Tyrano grew old or died, and a colony retrieved their capability. Therefore new war took place. The new generations broke out the war for revenge of their ancestor and to conquer the Jurassic Island. The second bloody war....

Map: 256×176 tiles · tribes at the start: 8 · wild animals: 294 · On victory: the ending screen ↓

0:36 — the ending: a sanctuary, a tyrannosaurus, a horned god, the gates open, people walk in — and the light takes them.
What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen, in order. A man walks down a dark stone hall towards a blue doorway — this is the sanctuary. Fire flares and a tyrannosaurus throws itself at him: the beast guards this place. Then the hall floods green and a horned god rises before a carved wall — red, muscular, ram-horned, fire in his hands. He spreads his arms and the heavy blue gates swing open. People walk into the hall — men, women, children, whole families. Broad ribbons of yellow and blue light come to meet them, pass through the crowd — and the people are gone. The last shots are an empty hall and the light slowly fading.

What it means. The game never explains it in words, but its own texts hold the answer. The horned one is Perox, god of darkness: he lost the war of the gods to Ether, was cast out, came down to the island in a changed shape and made a kingdom of those who feared him — that is how the Moospell began. The tyrannosaurus in the sanctuary is his watchman, which is why the first half of the movie is a fight to get in.

The second half is the bill coming due. For twelve stages the tribes fought over hunting grounds and over the legendary weapons left by those who lived here before them. In the finale someone comes to collect: the gates are opened not by a man but by a god, and it is not warriors who walk in but a whole people, children included. The light does not kill — it takes. The island is left empty, exactly as in the eleventh movie, and exactly as it was left by the twelve tribes before them.

One detail from the files that explains a lot. The ending picture is looked up per tribe, but all eight entries point at the same image: whoever you play, the campaign ends on this.

Ka-noo-se

1 New Residential Site

The Kanoose, the Primitive Year 995

  • Acquire Food over 3,000 units

The Kanoose who were originally the Koomba looked like female magician. They were not bellicose and lazy, and they used magic in hunting. Although their magic power were not strong, they hunted beasts without difficulty as they can easily recover their health power. The Kanoose moved along the northern coast line, and occupied in the north-eastern part of the Island.

3 The Song by Elf

The Kanoose, the Primitive Year 999

  • Terminate the Tyrano

The Kanoose's magician, Elf, learned Mass Treatment Magic as well as Individual Treatment Magic. This advanced magic could easily recover health power not only for herself but also for other Kanoose around her. They found the Tyrano accompanied by the dinosaurs. The Kanoose were severally damaged by attack from the Tyrano's dinosaurs rather than the beasts. To protect themselves effectively from the dinosaurs' attack, they finally learned Shield Magic.

4 Maximum Health Power Magic

The Kanoose, the Primitive Year 1002

  • Terminate the Tyrano

At that time, the Kanoose found a way to practice Maximum Health Power Magic that they could make their health power limitless instantly. This magic made their hunting and fighting easier, but the stronger magical power were needed. When some of them were killed and injured by the Tyrano's attack, the other went to the Tyrano's stronghold to destroy it. Nobody know that the Tyrano's stronghold would be occupied by the Kanoose or wouldn't be.

5 The Lost Legendary

The Kanoose, the Primitive Year 1114

  • Acquire the Legendary Weapon

When the Kanoose had occupied the Tyrano's village, they found that there was somewhat stillness than they expected. Upon knowing that some of the Tyrano had left to look for a legendary weapon from a captive, the Kanoose began to search for it, too.

6 The Cry of the Tyrano

The Kanoose, the Primitive Year 1124

  • Capture the Tyrano's Sanctuary

The legendary item that the Kanoose had acquired was a kind of Mystical Liquor. It was not a weapon, but if the Kanoose's magician, Elf would drink it, her magical power would increase enormously. On the other hand, the Tyrano who had returned to their village with Moonlight Sword got mad as their village had been ruined totally by the Kanoose. The Kanoose defeated the attacking-Tyrano, and occupied the Tyrano's Sanctuary again.

7 The Anger of Tyrano

The Tyrano, Primitive Year 1240

But, the Romack did not bring foodstuff as the Moospell conquered the Romack so in return the latter did not offer food any more. Knowing it, the wizards of the Kanoose staged war to take back the Romack. But the wizards did not know that other tribes invaded their village.

  • Build two units creating Ranger

The Romack's way of hunting was unique. Since they had less power in hunting, they waited and trailed beasts after one of them allured the hunted animal. So they had difficulty in building the units as they hadn't hunt a lot of beasts. But they adapted themselves to hunt and build Food Storage.

  • Capture the Masai's Sanctuary

The legendary item that the Romack had acquired was Dragon's Eye. It made the Romack magician, Ranger, see farther and find the enemy far from them.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. The camera travels along the carcass of a dead dinosaur, tail to head, and stops on the jaws.

Where it leads. Stage seven is the dinosaur uprising, the only stage where the enemy is not a tribe. The animals went hungry and turned on everyone; the objective is to kill every last one. The movie sums it up drily: you won, and there is nothing here to look at. This is where the campaign changes scale — from here on it is blocs, alliances and total war, not squabbles with the neighbours.

8 The Red Wind

The Romack, Primitive Year 1255

  • Capture the Tyrano's Sanctuary
  • Capture the Kanoose's Sanctuary

The Romack came to learn resuscitation magic. This was the greatest magic of all. When a primitive died, this magic resuscitated his remains. The Romack also resuscitated the Masai whenever they were hurt or died during hunting. Alive other tribes and their dinosaurs became slaves of the Romack. The Romack widened their hunting ground, and they learned that there were other tribes. Finally, they went out of their territory to capture sanctuary of other tribes.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. Stone faces set in the ground, light spreading above them, then a white beam striking down into them and holding until the end.

Where it leads. Stage eight is the first with two objectives at once: take the sanctuaries of two tribes. By now the island is split into an east and a west, and the war has stopped being a neighbours' quarrel. The idols are among the few things left of the earlier inhabitants; the light on them means an old place of power is working again, and one of the eight now owns it.

9 The Romack Warrior

The Romack, Primitive Year 1268

  • Terminate all the enemies

The Romack were able to unify the three tribes, but there has probability that they may split sooner or later. It was not easy to unify into one tribe. They did not want to be just small tribe they wanted more, and so they started the war to colonize other tribes. Until the Romack realized that even though they captured their Sanctuaries, still other tribes were not totally colonized.

10 The United Front

The Romack, Primitive Year 1279

  • Terminate all the enemies

The Romack found out that there are other tribes in the Jurassic Island. The reason why they checked on the other tribes was that they conquered three other tribes and their hunting skill was excellent. They also decided to attack the other tribes together with the Masai, Tyrano and Kanoose before other tribes invaded them. The Romack had to kill them off as the other tribes were so tough.

11 Like Wind......

The Romack, Primitive Year 1290

  • Terminate all the enemies

The Romack, Masai, Tyrano and Kanoose went to the west to conquer the Koomba, Moospell, Radumba and Koaka. But while they were on their way home, they were infected with an unidentified contagious. Some of them were able to survive, but they also died due to an attack of beasts, dinosaurs and other tribes' attack. Whereas the Koomba, Moospell, Radumba and Koaka constructed their new village in the west, and they attacked from the west part of the Island to revenge of their tribes. The Romack had to defend themselves against the invaders.

12 Flew Through The Light

The Romack, Primitive Year 1399

  • Terminate all the enemies

The Romack ruled over the Jurassic Island. But due to the revolt of several tribes, their power declined. The primitives were separated into eight tribes again. The Romack started to allowed them over their side. The great war of eight tribes. When will be the war finished?

0:36 — the ending: a sanctuary, a tyrannosaurus, a horned god, the gates open, people walk in — and the light takes them.
What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen, in order. A man walks down a dark stone hall towards a blue doorway — this is the sanctuary. Fire flares and a tyrannosaurus throws itself at him: the beast guards this place. Then the hall floods green and a horned god rises before a carved wall — red, muscular, ram-horned, fire in his hands. He spreads his arms and the heavy blue gates swing open. People walk into the hall — men, women, children, whole families. Broad ribbons of yellow and blue light come to meet them, pass through the crowd — and the people are gone. The last shots are an empty hall and the light slowly fading.

What it means. The game never explains it in words, but its own texts hold the answer. The horned one is Perox, god of darkness: he lost the war of the gods to Ether, was cast out, came down to the island in a changed shape and made a kingdom of those who feared him — that is how the Moospell began. The tyrannosaurus in the sanctuary is his watchman, which is why the first half of the movie is a fight to get in.

The second half is the bill coming due. For twelve stages the tribes fought over hunting grounds and over the legendary weapons left by those who lived here before them. In the finale someone comes to collect: the gates are opened not by a man but by a god, and it is not warriors who walk in but a whole people, children included. The light does not kill — it takes. The island is left empty, exactly as in the eleventh movie, and exactly as it was left by the twelve tribes before them.

One detail from the files that explains a lot. The ending picture is looked up per tribe, but all eight entries point at the same image: whoever you play, the campaign ends on this.

Masai

1 Abhorrence and Greed

The Masai, the Primitive Year 986

  • Acquire Food over 3,000 units

The Masai had sailed for the Jurassic Island for a long time. They killed each other to get the remaining food while sailing as they were very violent and cruel. Upon arriving at the Jurassic Island, they started to hunt in a very ruthless way.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. A slow crawl over a field of bones: skulls, tusks, a dinosaur's open jaw on red ground. Not one human figure.

Where it leads. Stage one is the same for every tribe: gather three thousand food. Survive, in other words. The movie shows what this land lives on — what dies on it. Stage two is where the tribe first builds barracks and pens, turning "we eat" into "we can fight".

2 The Barracks

The Masai, the Primitive Year 992

  • Build three Barracks
  • Build four Armories

The Masai were determined to build Food Storage. Although they had Food Storage, they preferred to hunt in the wild rather than keeping Food Storage safe. When they encounter other tribes while hunting, they attacked them without mercy. Only killing and injuring made them excited.

3 Crying out of the Romack

The Masai, the Primitive Year 1016

  • Terminate the Romack

The Masai were still very cruel in hunting and fighting. Also they could move quickly and slaughtered other tribes whenever they found them in the wild. But there were tribes who could move with grater speed than the Masai. They were the Romack who were not ruthless. They escaped from the Masai not to pursuit, but to attack them at any moment. The Masai were getting more cruel and were trying to kill them.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. Nine seconds: a man in furs stands with a spear beside a torch, the camera pushing in on his face and chest. Nothing else in frame.

Where it leads. Stage three is the first real war: the game in the tribe's grounds has run out and a neighbour is in the way. The movie marks not the victory but the fact that the tribe now has a warrior in it. Before this it had hunters. Stage four continues the same war, and there is no going back from it.

4 Breathing at the dawn

The Masai, the Primitive Year 1092

  • Terminate the Romack

After the outbreak of fighting, the Romack around the Masai's territorial area were totally expelled. In addition to that, the Masai attacked the Romack's stronghold so as to regain their self-pride. Although the Romack's village was far and there were many obstacles on their way, they rapidly reached there. Just as the dawn was healing, there would be a bloody battle in the Island between the Masai coming from afar and the Romack waiting for them.

5 The Hidden Legendary

The Masai, the Primitive Year 1167

  • Acquire the Legendary Weapon

There was a cold-blooded warrior among the Masai, and they called him Kiznor. He liked to go hunting alone, and he met a primitive named, Norshee who had run away from the Tyrano. Norshee told him their tribe's secret where to find the legendary weapon in the island. He decided to look for the said weapon and finally set off. As there were so many beasts and dinosaurs on his way, he came back to ask for some Masai to accompany him.

What is on screen. A pillar of white light falls between dark rocks; inside it, on a green circle, a human figure gathers itself together — first an outline, then a whole man — and the light goes out.

Where it leads. Stage five is named the same for every tribe: acquire the legendary weapon. Those weapons were left by the twelve tribes who lived here before. The movie does not show the object but what comes back into the world with it: a man literally arrives from where men are not supposed to walk. On stage six that weapon is used to take a neighbour's sanctuary — the first foreign capital to fall.

6 Hammer of Darkness

The Masai, the Primitive Year 1205

  • Capture the Romack's Sanctuary

The legendary weapon that Kiznor and the Romack had acquired was Hammer of Darkness. It radiated dark bluish light. It enabled the Masai to obtain extreme power to attack. They came to advance on the Romack's village to slaughter them out.

The Masai, Primitive Year 1255

  • Capture Tyrano's Sanctuary
  • Capture Kanoose's Sanctuary

Perox, the God of Darkness banished from the world of God after he was defeated during the fight with Ether, the God of light. After this he disguised himself as a magician, so some primitive men who arrived in the Island were placed under his command. He called them the Moospell and taught them how to use magic. The first magic the Moospell learned was Flaming Ball Magic, which made the target's health power weaken. Even though, when some of them practiced this magic together, they suffered much.

3 Lightning and Roaring Sound

The Moospell, the Primitive Year 1008

  • Terminate the Koomba

At that time, the Moospell's Wizard gained more knowledge about magical power, Lightning Magic than Flaming Ball Magic and Roaring Sound Magic. Since this was a kind of magic using natural calamities, it was hard for a strong beast or an enemy remain alive. In addition to that, it was more powerful when several Wizards practiced together. Some of the Moospell had been killed and injured when they encountered other tribes as they went hunting farther to acquire more food. Finally they began to fight against their enemies by using Lightning Magic to secure their lives and expand their territory.

  • Acquire the Legendary Weapon

In those days, Perox told to the Moospell that there was the legendary item, Rock Crystal in the island. The reason why, Perox let them know about Rock Crystal and not acquiring it by himself, was because he was wondering Rock Crystal was radiating bluish and shiny colors. Perox let the Moospell have the said Crystal, but nobody knew how to use it completely as their magical power was still weak. Could the Moospell who acquired the Rock Crystal come back to the village safely?

The Koomba who had been treated contemptuously by others in the continent lived in the northern part of the Island. In this Island they were very lazy and unwilling to move since there was no ruling classes any more, but they never fail to hunt beasts. Since most of them were lazy, they occupied the central part of the Island where lots of beasts lived.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. A slow crawl over a field of bones: skulls, tusks, a dinosaur's open jaw on red ground. Not one human figure.

Where it leads. Stage one is the same for every tribe: gather three thousand food. Survive, in other words. The movie shows what this land lives on — what dies on it. Stage two is where the tribe first builds barracks and pens, turning "we eat" into "we can fight".

2 The Koomba's Lot

The Koomba, the Primitive Year 997

  • Build three Barracks
  • Build two Armories

The Koomba were so lazy to store food, and so most of their food was spoiled. When the beasts were beginning to decrease in quantity, that's the time they started to build Food Storage. But some of them thought it too much trouble to carry food to the Food Storage.

3 Appearance of the Moospell

The Koomba, the Primitive Year 1008

  • Terminate the Moospell

What is on screen. Nine seconds: a man in furs stands with a spear beside a torch, the camera pushing in on his face and chest. Nothing else in frame.

Where it leads. Stage three is the first real war: the game in the tribe's grounds has run out and a neighbour is in the way. The movie marks not the victory but the fact that the tribe now has a warrior in it. Before this it had hunters. Stage four continues the same war, and there is no going back from it.

4 Health and Power

The Koomba, the Primitive Year 1104

  • Terminate the Moospell

The Koomba were full of confidence as they had defeated the Moospell.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. A pillar of white light falls between dark rocks; inside it, on a green circle, a human figure gathers itself together — first an outline, then a whole man — and the light goes out.

Where it leads. Stage five is named the same for every tribe: acquire the legendary weapon. Those weapons were left by the twelve tribes who lived here before. The movie does not show the object but what comes back into the world with it: a man literally arrives from where men are not supposed to walk. On stage six that weapon is used to take a neighbour's sanctuary — the first foreign capital to fall.

6 Black Eye-Color

The Koomba, the Primitive Year 1224

  • Capture the Moospell's Sanctuary

The legendary weapon that the Koomba searched was a kind of shield. It was not an ordinary one, but it was Moon Shield that always brought out the gold color. Moon Shield, that could give the strong defense power to the Koomba. The Koomba found Moon Shield together with a mural that was in harmony of living with other tribes. So the Koomba decided not to kill other tribes but to absorb them. In opposite of their decision, the Moospell acquired an area around the Koomba's village, and they provoked the fight with the Koomba. Finally the Koomba put the Moospell under their commands.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. The camera travels along the carcass of a dead dinosaur, tail to head, and stops on the jaws.

Where it leads. Stage seven is the dinosaur uprising, the only stage where the enemy is not a tribe. The animals went hungry and turned on everyone; the objective is to kill every last one.

This is where the campaign changes scale — from here on it is blocs, alliances and total war, not squabbles with the neighbours.

8 The Beginning of War

The Koomba, Primitive Year 1260

  • Capture the Radumba's Sanctuary
  • Capture the Koaka's Sanctuary

The Koomba together with the Moospell came to capture the Radumba and the Koaka. They wanted to live together with the Radumba and Koaka as like the Moospell.

What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. Stone faces set in the ground, light spreading above them, then a white beam striking down into them and holding until the end.

Where it leads. Stage eight is the first with two objectives at once: take the sanctuaries of two tribes. By now the island is split into an east and a west, and the war has stopped being a neighbours' quarrel. The idols are among the few things left of the earlier inhabitants; the light on them means an old place of power is working again, and one of the eight now owns it.

9 The Song of the Koomba

The Koomba, Primitive Year 1277

  • Terminate all the enemies

The Koomba learned a lesson that they are unique and cannot be separated, and they did not try to harmonize the other tribes any more. At last, they started the war to make the Moospell, Radumba and Koaka slaves.

10 The Beginning of War

The Koomba, Primitive Year 1280

  • Terminate all the enemies

Capturing sanctuaries of the Moospell, Radumba and Koaka, the Koomba made them slaves. The slaves offered foodstuff to them. When the war started, the slaves had to be protector for the Koomba. But on the hand, unidentified primitives invaded territory of the Koomba. Unidentified primitives were strong as well as persistent, and they plundered the loose defense of the Koomba, Moospell, Radumba and Koaka. The Moospell gave up easily because invaders attacked together with the well-trained Velociraptor and Diloposaurus. Could the Koomba defend themselves against invaders?

11 The United Battle

The Koomba, Primitive Year 1290

  • Terminate all the enemies

What is on screen. An empty scorched plain, a green and red sky, a horned skull in the middle of it. The camera walks slowly up to it, and that is all.

Where it leads. Stage eleven is the last before the finale, and by then one tribe stands over the others. The movie shows the price: the land is empty. Then comes stage twelve, the year 1399, where it all starts again — "War-To-Death".

12 The Confusion Within The Island

The Koomba, Primitive Year 1399

  • Terminate all the enemies

It took hundred of years after the great confusion. Heroes of the Koomba grew old or died, and a colony retrieved their capability. Therefore new war took place. The new generations started the war for revenge of their ancestor and to conquer the Jurassic Island. When will be the war finished?

Map: 256×176 tiles · tribes at the start: 8 · wild animals: 294 · On victory: the ending screen ↓

0:36 — the ending: a sanctuary, a tyrannosaurus, a horned god, the gates open, people walk in — and the light takes them.
What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen, in order. A man walks down a dark stone hall towards a blue doorway — this is the sanctuary. Fire flares and a tyrannosaurus throws itself at him: the beast guards this place. Then the hall floods green and a horned god rises before a carved wall — red, muscular, ram-horned, fire in his hands. He spreads his arms and the heavy blue gates swing open. People walk into the hall — men, women, children, whole families. Broad ribbons of yellow and blue light come to meet them, pass through the crowd — and the people are gone. The last shots are an empty hall and the light slowly fading.

What it means. The game never explains it in words, but its own texts hold the answer. The horned one is Perox, god of darkness: he lost the war of the gods to Ether, was cast out, came down to the island in a changed shape and made a kingdom of those who feared him — that is how the Moospell began. The tyrannosaurus in the sanctuary is his watchman, which is why the first half of the movie is a fight to get in.

The second half is the bill coming due. For twelve stages the tribes fought over hunting grounds and over the legendary weapons left by those who lived here before them. In the finale someone comes to collect: the gates are opened not by a man but by a god, and it is not warriors who walk in but a whole people, children included. The light does not kill — it takes. The island is left empty, exactly as in the eleventh movie, and exactly as it was left by the twelve tribes before them.

One detail from the files that explains a lot. The ending picture is looked up per tribe, but all eight entries point at the same image: whoever you play, the campaign ends on this.

But the Moospell and Koomba were not captured easily because they were consisted of powerful Wizard and Muscle-Man. Even though the Koaka had Rhamphorhynchus, flying Dinosaurs and several other dinosaurs, they realized that Roaring Sound Magic of the Moospell was the strongest of them all.

0:25 — a beam of light strikes the stone faces — the same idols as in the stage 2 painting.
What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. Stone faces set in the ground, light spreading above them, then a white beam striking down into them and holding until the end.

Where it leads. Stage eight is the first with two objectives at once: take the sanctuaries of two tribes. By now the island is split into an east and a west, and the war has stopped being a neighbours' quarrel. The idols are among the few things left of the earlier inhabitants; the light on them means an old place of power is working again, and one of the eight now owns it.

11 The Guard of Sky

The Koaka, Primitive Year 1290

  • Terminate all the enemies

So many flying-dinosaurs and primitives of the Koaka died during battle, and they realized that came from into another four tribes. But the Tyrano, Kanoose, Romack and Masai were unified. The Koaka decided to conquer other tribes in Jurassic Island with the Moospell, Koomba and Radumba. That resulted in confusion within the Jurassic Island.

0:18 — a horned skull alone on scorched ground under a green and red sky, the camera closing in.
What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen. An empty scorched plain, a green and red sky, a horned skull in the middle of it. The camera walks slowly up to it, and that is all.

Where it leads. Stage eleven is the last before the finale, and by then one tribe stands over the others. The movie shows the price: the land is empty. Then comes stage twelve, the year 1399, where it all starts again — "War-To-Death".

12 The War Towards Peace

The Koaka, Primitive Year 1399

0:36 — the ending: a sanctuary, a tyrannosaurus, a horned god, the gates open, people walk in — and the light takes them.
What happens here, and what it leads to

What is on screen, in order. A man walks down a dark stone hall towards a blue doorway — this is the sanctuary. Fire flares and a tyrannosaurus throws itself at him: the beast guards this place. Then the hall floods green and a horned god rises before a carved wall — red, muscular, ram-horned, fire in his hands. He spreads his arms and the heavy blue gates swing open. People walk into the hall — men, women, children, whole families. Broad ribbons of yellow and blue light come to meet them, pass through the crowd — and the people are gone. The last shots are an empty hall and the light slowly fading.

What it means. The game never explains it in words, but its own texts hold the answer. The horned one is Perox, god of darkness: he lost the war of the gods to Ether, was cast out, came down to the island in a changed shape and made a kingdom of those who feared him — that is how the Moospell began. The tyrannosaurus in the sanctuary is his watchman, which is why the first half of the movie is a fight to get in.

The second half is the bill coming due. For twelve stages the tribes fought over hunting grounds and over the legendary weapons left by those who lived here before them. In the finale someone comes to collect: the gates are opened not by a man but by a god, and it is not warriors who walk in but a whole people, children included. The light does not kill — it takes. The island is left empty, exactly as in the eleventh movie, and exactly as it was left by the twelve tribes before them.

One detail from the files that explains a lot. The ending picture is looked up per tribe, but all eight entries point at the same image: whoever you play, the campaign ends on this.
