About the game
What you do in a play session
Each round is a spectacle. One player rolls a special die, and the result of that die will dictate a placement restriction for all other players. Like, 'you can only place dinosaurs in forest enclosures' or 'only in empty enclosures'. This adds a layer of strategy and a bit of controlled chaos, because what you want to do isn't always what the die allows. It's a quick, light game, perfect for those who enjoy a good draft without the complexity of a heavy euro game. The rules are super accessible, and fun is guaranteed, whether you're a veteran or a newcomer to the world of board games. Get ready to laugh, plan, and maybe even lament a little when the die doesn't cooperate!
