The Brachiosaurus is the 16th Dinosaur obtained in the Mesozoic Valley Bubble Universe, which can generate Fossil. (Unlocked at Rank 24, branching off of Sauropoda)
In Game Description[]
"One of the largest dinosaurs known to man, the Brachiosaur was a large herbivore that lived in the late Jurassic period."
Traits[]
Common[]
- Long Tails (Speed):
"Some sauropods had tails nearly as long as their torsos, which were used defensively to deter or injure predators."
- Pencil-Like Teeth (Payout):
"Some Sauropods, like Diplodocus, has pencil-shaped teeth in the front of their mouths to help them more efficiently strip leaves off of plant stems."
Rare[]
- Quadrupedal (Speed):
"A creature that walks on four legs, with a horizontal posture, is called a quadruped. Many dinosaurs were quadrupedal, including Stegosaurus and Triceratops. A quadrupedal gait gave these dinosaurs increased sturdiness and the ability to carry lots of weight."
- Herbivore (Payout):
"Animals that feed entirely on plant matter are called herbivores. About half of all dinosaurs were herbivores. They had teeth that were specially designed for grinding leaves, twigs, and shoots."
- Jurassic Age (Discount):
"The Jurassic (201.3 MYA—145 MYA) was the second period of the Mesozoic Era. During this period, dinosaurs became the dominant species on Earth as the supercontinent Gondawana began to split, replacing the deserts of the Triassic with lush rainforests."
Epic[]
- Hollow Bones (Speed):
"The development of hollow or semi-hollow bones gave some dinosaurs a lighter but stronger skeletal system. This development would later enable them to evolve the ability to fly."
- Herd Behavior (Payout):
"Some dinosaurs congregated in social groups, living in loose family units for defense against predators."
- Feathers (Discount):
"It is still unknown to what extent therapodian dinosaurs were feathered, but evidence exists that shows that at least some of them presented with varying degrees of feathery skin coverings."
- Warm Climate (Payout):
"During the Mesozoic Era, the Earth's temperature was very warm, which led to a great amount of geological and biological transitions. This climate set the stage for the major changes of the era."
Achievements[]
- Armed and Dangerous (75 Brachiosaurs):
"The name Brachiosaur is Greek for "arm lizard," referring to these dinosaur's long forelimbs. This is atypical for a sauropod, and resulted in Brachiosaur having a shorter tail and more upright posture than other members of its clade."
- Big Appetite (200 Brachiosaurs):
"To consume the amount of foliage needed to sustain its huge body, Brachiosaurus would have needed to feed for at least 16 hours a day."
