Trivia[]
- The Sea Rex is named after the real-world Tyrannosaurus.
- Despite the Sea Rex having being a predatory animal it is shown avoiding the Gabbits in a deleted scene. Perhaps this alludes the Sea Rex being an omnivore or maybe the one seen simply wasn't hungry.
- One possible reason why the Sea Rex wasn't added to the game was because of their size. In order to make the Sea Rex a viable aquatic enemy, OWI would have had to make the water levels bigger. It could also be assumed that the Sea Rex is extinct during the events of Munch's Oddysee.
- Another creature that was cut from Munch was an animal known as a Land Rex; a terrestrial equivalent to the Sea Rex.
- It has been suggested that the skeletons seen in "Paramite Run" and "Brewery To Be" are actually the remains of a beached Sea Rex.[3]
