Dinosaur Tycoon II

About Dinosaur Tycoon II

Dinosaur Tycoon II is a fish-shooting arcade game from TaDa Gaming, and it is not a reel slot. There are no reels, rows or paylines anywhere in it. The screen is a single arena where dinosaurs, pterodactyls and dragons drift across the field, and you fire at them one shot at a time. Every shot costs your chosen stake, and a creature that goes down pays a multiple of that stake set by its own value. Aim, timing and weapon choice sit with the player rather than with a random spin, which is the main thing separating this format from the slots that surround it in the lobby.

The title follows TaDa Gaming's original Dinosaur Tycoon and entered the provider catalogue in March 2023. Midnite lists a release date of 27 August 2025. TaDa Gaming picked up a UK Gambling Commission licence in 2025 and has pushed fish-shooting content as a central part of its UK range, so the category is still a relatively new arrival in UK casino lobbies.

How to Play Dinosaur Tycoon II

Your bet is set per shot rather than per round. Stakes at Midnite start from £0.01 per shot, and you raise or lower that value with the plus and minus controls before firing. The standard cannon fires rapidly at the base stake. Two heavier options sit alongside it, an Axe and a Trap, and both draw a multiple of the base stake per use in return for a stronger hit on tougher targets. An autoplay setting will keep firing at chosen targets without manual input.

Payouts are per creature, not per line. Smaller dinosaurs fall often and return low multiples of the shot value, while the larger targets absorb many more shots and pay considerably more when they do go down. A Waterspout power attack builds on an energy meter and covers a wider area of the arena once it has charged. The Light Dragon King is the highest-value target on the board. Weapon costs, creature values and the full paytable are all listed on the in-game help screen, and that screen is the authority for the exact build you are playing.

Dinosaur Tycoon II Features

• Weapon selection: The standard cannon fires at the base stake. The Axe and the Trap each cost a multiple of the base stake per use and are aimed at the larger creatures. Choosing a heavier weapon raises the cost per shot as well as the chance of bringing a high-value target down.
• Waterspout: An energy-based power attack that charges as you play and hits a wider section of the arena when it is released.
• Pterodactyl Dice: Listed by TaDa Gaming as one of the game's special features. The provider page does not publish the full rules, so the in-game help screen is the place to check how it resolves.
• Dragon King Showdown: A special feature built around the Dragon King target. TaDa Gaming names it but does not publish the mechanics, so treat the in-game help screen as the reference.
• Capsule Toy: A further special feature named on the provider page. Again, the rules are not published externally.

Dinosaur Tycoon II Theme and Symbols

The setting is a cartoon prehistoric world rendered in 3D, with a rocky arena backdrop and creature models that move across the screen at different speeds. Colours are bright and the animation style is closer to a console arcade cabinet than to a casino reel game. Sound and visual feedback are built around the shooting loop, with hit effects on each connected shot.

There are no symbols in the slot sense. The creatures are the paytable. TaDa Gaming's own page groups them by value, with smaller and faster targets such as the Bomb Frog, Electric Lizard and Sprint Triceratops at the lower end, pterodactyls in the middle, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Crystal Dragon and Light Dragon King at the top. The Light Dragon King carries the widest range on the board, quoted by the provider at 50x to 1,000x, which is where the game's stated maximum win comes from. Per-creature values should be read off the in-game paytable rather than taken from third-party listings, as those listings disagree in places.

Games Like Dinosaur Tycoon II

• Dinosaur Tycoon: The original title in the series, using the same shooting loop with a smaller feature set.
• Mines: Not a shooter, but a TaDa instant-win game for players who want a round they control rather than a spin.
• Fortune Gems: A straightforward reel slot from the same studio, useful as a contrast if you want to see how TaDa handles a conventional format.

Availability of these titles in the Midnite lobby should be confirmed before the links go live.
