Cadillacs and Dinosaurs: The Arcade Game​ (キャディラックス 恐竜新世紀, Cadillacs Kyōryū Shin Seiki?) is a 1993 arcade game released by Capcom. It is a side-scrolling beat 'em up based on the comic book series Xenozoic Tales. The game was produced as a tie-in to the Cadillacs and Dinosaurs animated series which was aired that same year. The story and character descriptions are extremely (although unintentionally) humorous.

Story

(From the arcade flyer) "Early 26th Century... 100 years have past (sic) since men and dinosaurs became (sic) to live together. Suddenly the poachers appeared from somewhere and began to slaughter the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs go on a rampage and the whole world is now in confusion. To reveal their evil plot, 4 braves get together! Their adventure has just begun!!"

Gameplay

(From KLOV) The game is played like another Capcom puncher, Final Fight. One object is to investigate the ruins of 20th Century New York, now buried under water after a massive earthquake. Another is to find out why so many dinosaurs are being captured, mangled, and used in strange genetic engineering projects.
