Summary

Mediazoic is a suite of digital minigames set in a world in which dinosaurs have retaken the earth. As one of the few humans remaining, and therefore one of the few beings with hands, the player takes on the role of a new employee at DDB, a TV network serving the T-Rex, Stegosaurus, and Pterodactyl demographics. Their job is to censor, moderate, and manipulate live video to appease the audience. Mediazoic is a humorous game that hints at the truth that the media we consume passes through many a watchful eye.
