Dino Battle!

2–4 players · 120 min · 14+

Ride. Roar. Conquer. The time of the dinosaurs and the age of the caveman collide in this dino-riding dice-chucking miniatures boardgame for 2-4 players.

Before humanity. Before civilization. War rages. Command your tribe of dinosaur riders in an epic primeval struggle for dominance. Trample enemies beneath your towering Brachiosaurus. Outflank and outnumber your opponents with your ruthless Raptors. Control sacred shrines with your powerful T-Rex and hunt your enemies to extinction.

Seize arcane glyphs scattered across the ravaged landscape, and their secure mystical boons for your people. Harness the crackling power of mighty energy crystals to devastate your enemies with relentless speed and ferocity. Hoard precious blood fruit, a rare resource in this cursed wasteland.

In Dino Battle! players: • Coordinate attacks between multiple dinosaur species to gain precious combat advantages. • Roll dice to resolve titanic dinosaur battles. • Manage a hand of cards to activate the right dinosaurs at the right time. • Control Areas of the battlefield to secure vital sustenance and mystical boons. • Pursue map-specific win conditions or simply hunt your enemy to extinction!

Designed by Stephen Baker and Roger Ford, the original creators of Die Schlacht der Dinosaurier and acclaimed classics HeroScape and Space Crusade. Dino Battle! is fast-paced, strategic, ‘beer-and-pretzels’ Ameritrash gameplay, faithfully updated from the beloved 1990s classic for modern players.

In this savage world, only the strongest survive.
