A modal dialog box is a programming term. It means a window that pops up and you have to acknowledge it, usually by clicking a 'OK' button, to close the window before you can proceed with whatever you wanted to do. In this case the modal dialog box is the window that popped up after the app loaded that announced the availability of this dino - you can see a picture of that above. So if I read this correctly all the previous modal dialog boxes (windows) had static graphics, this was the first one where something moved!
