The Magic School Bus Explores in the Age of Dinosaurs is a computer-game created by Microsoft. It is one in a series of computer-games based on The Magic School Bus books and TV series. It was released on December 19, 1996.
Gameplay
Ms. Frizzle is missing some photographs from her photo album of her last trip to the age of dinosaurs. As usual, the user has to find replacements. Thee are seven different places, including "Triassic Arizona", Triassic Argentina", "Jurassic Colorado", "Jurassic Tethys Sea", "Jurassic Tanzania", "Cretaceous Alberta", and "Cretaceous Mongolia".
In this version, unlike the book (The Magic School Bus in the Time of the Dinosaurs) and its TV adaptation (The Busasaurus), the Bus transforms into three different prehistoric animals (one for each of the time periods) instead of a time machine. It transforms into Coelophysis (for the Triassic period), Stegosaurus (for the Jurassic period), and Pteranodon (for the Cretaceous period). However, the cover of the box and jewel case does depict the Bus transforming into a time machine (like it became in both the book and TV adaptations).
