* AnimalsNotToScale: Most of the bosses in the first game are ridiculously oversized in contrast to their real-life counterparts. Special mention goes for the ''Rhamphorhynchus'', which makes the ''Pteranodon'' enemies look like flies, and the Ammonite, which can grab a tiny submarine with its tentacles, even though the largest known ammonite species, ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parapuzosia_seppenradensis Parapuzosia seppenradensis]]'' (which appears in the first game as well), would have measured roughly about 2.55 m (8.4 ft) or even 3.5 m (11 ft) in diameter, and especially the final boss [[spoiler: a TyrannosaurusRex]] that would not be out of place at all in a ''Franchise/Godzilla'' movie. The sequel is no better in this regard, featuring a monstrous-sized ''Pachycephalosaurus'' as its first boss and a gargantuan-sized ''Pteranodon'' as another.

A series of arcade Shot'em-Up games by {{Creator/SNK}}. Basically a side scroller shooter with Dinosaurs!

The first game, ''Prehistoric Isle in 1930'' is set on an island in TheBermudaTriangle, the player controls a biplane, blasting hordes of prehistoric creatures, while aquiring power-ups in the form of a device that rotates around his craft blocking enemy shots and providing different modes of fire.

The sequel, ''Prehistoric Isle 2'' is set in modern times when dinosaurs invade a city, this time the player controls a helicopter and includes the mechanic of rescuing civilians.

----
!!Tropes:
* AbsurdlySpaciousSewer: In the sequel's first level, so spacious that helicopters can fly through with space to spare.

The final coda says the the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle continues...]]
