Objective

Draft dinosaurs and place them in different zones to get the most points.

Gameplay

• The game consists of 2 rounds (4 for 2 players)
• Each player draws 6 dinosaurs from the bag.
• The player with the placement die rolls it.
• Each player chooses a dinosaur and places it in their zoo at the same time, following the rules on the placement die (except the roller).
• Each player then discards one of the remaining dinosaurs (transfers it to another dinosaur park)
• Each player passes their dinosaur bag and placement die (if they had it) to their left.
• Repeat until all dinosaurs are placed.
• After 2 rounds, proceed to scoring.
• At the end of the game you'll have placed 12 dinosaurs: 6 in round 1, 6 in round 2.
• In the event of a tie, the player who has fewest T-Rexes wins. If they are still tied, the players share the win.
• There are 6 species of dinosaurs, distributed as follows:
  • 5p: 60 dinos. 10 x 6 different species
