Dinosaurs

Before you begin the game, each player takes 4 cards from the deck — these are dinosaurs that you’ll be finding on the excavations; each player also receives token of any color — that’s that player’s archeologist. After that define the one who will act first and begin the game.

Players act in turns, playing cards from their hands on the table. Each card represents one part of prehistorical reptiles that once inhabited our world. After playing the card from the hand the player must move his or her archeologist to any excavation site free of other archeologists. Then the player draws a card to his or her hand from the deck.

Hurry up to be the first one who will get the full skeleton, because as soon as you find all bones of a single dinosaur and happen to be on its excavation spot, you’ll take this reptile and remove your archeologist from the game board — he’s carrying the finding to the museum. Now the dinosaur you’ve found will give you victory points.

Of course, you should play cards to where your archeologist is standing… but this is not always possible, and that’s the trick! Carefully play cards, because you goal is not only to give the needed card to yourself, but also to make sure that this card won’t give victory points to your opponent.
