About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for a wild ride back to prehistoric times in Bitin' Off Hedz! In this crazy race game, you and your fellow dinosaurs will embark on a perilous adventure across Skull Island. The goal is simple: be the first to leap into the volcano at the center of the map. But beware! The path is long and fraught with danger. If you get too close to another player's path, you might get a rock thrown at you and be sent back to the start! Each dinosaur has its own special abilities, adding a strategic twist to this frantic race. The gameplay is straightforward: roll the dice and move your dinosaur. It's pure fun for anyone who enjoys racing games with a touch of chaos and a fun prehistoric theme. Perfect for playing with a group, as it supports up to 8 players, guaranteeing laughs and a bit of paleontological rivalry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you buy

6 questions
What is the recommended minimum age?
As a simple racing game with a slightly more "aggressive" theme (eating heads!), we recommend it for players aged 8 and up.
Is it a competitive or cooperative game?
It's entirely competitive! Every dino for themselves in the race to the volcano, and whoever comes last... well, they might become a snack!
What makes each dinosaur different?
Each dinosaur has a unique special ability that can give you an advantage, whether it's moving faster, defending yourself, or hindering others.
How long does a game take?
A game is quite fast, around 60 minutes, depending on the number of players and the luck of the dice rolls!
Is the game very complicated to learn?
Not at all! The rules are very basic: roll the dice and move. The complexity comes from the player interactions and special abilities.
Can I play with just 2 players?
Yes! The game works well with 2 players, but it truly shines when the table is full, with more dinos bothering each other!
