Honestly, when my gaming buddy and I dove into It Takes Two this year, we never expected to scream-laugh over a virtual dinosaur cannibalism! 🤯 This co-op masterpiece has been dominating Steam charts for weeks, and after 100%-ing it, I gotta say the 'Snackosaurus' trophy was the most absurdly fun achievement. The story hits deep – you play as Cody and May, a couple turned into dolls by their daughter’s magic tears after they decide to divorce. To regain human forms, they must fix their broken relationship through chaotic teamwork. And let me tell you, nothing bonds two people like making a T-Rex devour its friend in a child’s bedroom. 😂 The trophy descriptions are notoriously vague though, so here’s exactly how we nailed this dino-sized snack attack!
🔍 Step 1: Rewind to Dino Land
First, head to Rose’s Room – the game’s longest chapter – and select the Dino Land checkpoint from the menu. If you’re playing fresh, just progress until you see two toy dinosaurs (a big green one and a tiny red one) near a bone-themed maze. Pro tip: Replaying this section? Skip the cutscenes by smashing that skip button! The nostalgia hit me hard seeing Rose’s crayon drawings everywhere while prepping for dino chaos.
🦖 Step 2: Claim Your Dino Rides
Each player must grab a dinosaur: one controls the green T-Rex, the other the red mini-dino. My friend took the green beast since she’s better at precision moves (those bone-platform mechanics require surgeon-like accuracy!). Meanwhile, I hopped on the red dino – its tail whips rotate platforms, but honestly, it mostly just waddles adorably. 💕
🌿 Step 3: The Forbidden Snack Spot
After ascending the first bone lift, ignore the urge to race ahead! Guide the red dino to a grassy patch near some bushes (it’s unmissable – looks like a mini Jurassic picnic zone). Have the red player STAY PUT while the green T-Rex stomps over. Then... CHAOS MODE: Make the green dino BITE the red one! We were crying laughing as the green beast casually munched its buddy like a chicken nugget. 🍗 Trophy unlocked instantly for both players! No replay needed – just pure, unhinged fun.
This whole sequence took us under 5 minutes, and it’s PERFECT for co-op newbies or trophy hunters. Unlike other tedious achievements (cough minigame grinds), this one’s pure joy. Plus, hearing the red dino’s comedic \”yelp\” lives rent-free in my head. Still one of 2025’s best co-op gems!
💬 FAQ Time!
- Q: Does biting the dino affect the story?
A: Nope! It’s a harmless secret animation. Rose’s room stays intact (mostly 😉).
- Q: Can I solo this with AI?
A: Sadly no – trophy requires two human players. Grab a friend or suffer eternal snacklessness!
- Q: What if my green dino misses the bite?
A: Just reposition! Have the red dino dance in place to taunt its predator. Works every time.
- Q: Is this needed for platinum?
A: Absolutely! And it’s the funniest one. 10/10 would dino-devour again.
- Q: Why name it 'Snackosaurus'?
A: Because 'T-Rex Cannibalism Simulator' was too dark for a kid’s bedroom. 🤷♂️
