About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey dino park enthusiasts! If your Draftosaurus zoo is thriving and visitors are starting to get a bit complacent, check out this fan-made expansion! "Special Attractions" is here to give your collection an extra boost, introducing a new way to score points at the end of the game. If you're one of those players who loves Draftosaurus and is always looking for more, this one's for you!
This little gem brings new cards that will make you think twice when choosing which dinosaur to place in your park. Featuring "Open Drafting" mechanics (that grab-and-pick-blatantly style) and "Set Collection" (gathering sets for points), the idea is to add an extra spice to your strategy. The goal remains to build the best zoo possible, but now with more options to secure that maximum score. It's the kind of thing you can print at home and start playing right away, no fuss.
If you're someone who loves to optimize every move and is always seeking new ways to win, this fan-made expansion is a perfect fit. It doesn't change the core essence of the base game but adds an extra layer of decisions and possibilities, especially for those who have already mastered the rules and want a slightly different challenge. It's a great option to refresh your games without adding much complexity or playtime. Ready to build an even more special park?
