Prehistoric Isle

description Prehistoric Isle Overview

Prehistoric Isle is a horizontal-scrolling arcade shoot 'em up released by SNK in 1989. Players pilot a biplane through a mysterious island environment while fighting dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures, giving the game a Lost World-style setting. Its play follows the conventions of period arcade shooters, with continuous movement, enemy waves, and weapon-based combat, and it is separate from the later Neo Geo sequel Prehistoric Isle 2.
