Color a Dinosaur is a 1993 electronic coloring book video game for children. It was developed by FarSight Studios for the Nintendo Entertainment System.
Gameplay
The player colors various dinosaurs by using the provided dinosaur images and palettes. Players can either color using the free form mode or in the automatic mode where they choose only a color.
Intended for ages 3 to 6, the game lacks sophisticated features such as animation and minigames, and the basic colors are either brightly colored patterns or limited variations on pink or red. An extra set of patterns can be reached by pressing the Select button.
Tommy Tallarico created the music for this game.
Rarity
Color a Dinosaur is recorded as being one of the rarest licensed NES games, as described in the 2015 documentary Nintendo Quest starring Jay Bartlett.
