The Rex Matriarchs were a triple threat of dangerous dinosaur dames that challenged you to branch out of one combat style and try another - but now we're adding a fourth to the mix! Some bumbling archaeologists have unearthed Anachronia's best-kept secret: Osseous! To defeat this boney baddie you'll need to flex your Necromancy skills.
Complete a short introduction and trek through the Rex Matriarch's lair into the bone-laden ossuary, where you may have unwittingly (or not) helped bring forth the fourth Rex Matriarch!
