History VideoGame / TheFlintstonesTheRescueOfDinoAndHoppy

* DropTheHammer: The big man at the Bedrock City Limits level attacks you with a hammer.

* OneUp: Item with Fred icon gives the player extra life.

* {{Cumulonemesis}}: One of the enemies is sentient cloud that tries to blow Fred off the screen.
* DeathThrows: When Fred dies, he gets up in the air, flips upside down, and falls off the screen.

* PullingThemselvesTogether: Ice level has snow golems that disintegrate after being hit only to merge shortly after.

''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones: The Rescue Of Dino & Hoppy'' is a 1991 platforming video game made for the UsefulNotes/{{NES}} by Creator/{{Taito}}.

* BigBad: Dr. Butler, a CanonForeigner from the 30th cetury who kidnapped the Flintstones' pets for his zoo.

* HeadSwap: ''7 Grand Dad'' merely replaces Fred's head with that of Mario's, [[http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/001/092/483/c9f.png and not all that well]], either.

* BottomlessPits: The game has several sections of instakill bottomless pits, starting from the first leve.

* LazyArtist: There are precisely three changes made to the game: the aforementioned HeadSwap, the infamous title screen, and the removal of Taito in the credits. Everything else from the characters to the story is the same, right down to the other Creator/HannaBarbera characters still being in the game and calling Mario/Grand Dad "Fred".
* WordSaladTitle: The name of the infamous bootleg. It's possible the main character was meant to be Mario's IdenticalGrandfather.

* AutoScrollingLevel: The sewer section of the Bedrock level.

* LazyArtist: The aforementioned HeadSwap and the infamous title screen are the ''only'' changes made to the game other than erasing the "Taito" in the credits. Everything else from the characters to the story is largely the same, right down to the Creator/HannaBarbera characters still being in the game and calling Mario/Grand Dad "Fred".

Aside from a sequel in the form of ''VideoGame/TheFlintstonesTheSurpriseAtDinosaurPeak'', this game would otherwise be lost to obscurity... were it not for the existence of a certain [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]]-themed bootlegged version of the game: ''Super Mario 7'', better known as '''''7 Grand Dad'''''. Existing since the mid-1990s and made infamous through Joel of WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}} [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nF-xdiL7Nr0 discovering it]], the bootleg stars Mario dressed in Fred's clothes but otherwise plays exactly the same. The bootlegged version of Mario on the title screen (a recolored version of Fortran from ''VideoGame/DianShiMaLi'' nicknamed Grand Dad) and the game's 8-bit version of the theme quickly became infamous, thanks to both the aforementioned Joel and the maker(s) of "high-quality video game rips" known as Music/SiIvaGunner. Thanks to all that, an [[FanSequel unofficial sequel]] [[SequelGap 25 years after the initial game's release]] aptly named ''VideoGame/GrandDadReboot'' was released in July 2017, based on its own bootleg-verse instead of the original Flintstones' world. Another fangame was in production called ''VideoGame/GrandDadMania'', though this one was mostly based on the [=SiIvaGunner=] character; sadly, it was cancelled in early 2017.
