Description taken from Arcade version of this game

-Fans of the comic book Cadillacs and Dinosaurs (created by Mark Schultz) will be pleased to know that a namesake game with limited circulation was actually created based on the storyline and characters of the original idea. Characters such as Jack, Hannah, Mustapha, and Mess are the protagonists in this 2D side-scrolling action slugfest in the vein of Final Fight and the gamut of other Capcom games created in this style.

The story begins in the year 2513; the delicate balance between the coexistence of both humans and dinosaurs has been upset by the all too numerous black marketeers who seek to skin the dinosaurs for their valuable hides. Play one of these four different characters as you use any means necessary to reach these black marketeers and restore balance once again to the East Coast. Gameplay is accented by numerous power-ups and weapons that can be acquired from defeated opponents, as well as vehicles that you can use to mow down foes. ~ Paul Biondich, All Game Guide
