Dino Meal

Save the Nest from T-Rex!

 

The huge wild Dino, Tyrannosaurus Rex, has stolen the eggs from other dino species and player must rescue those from the nest before he devours them all.

20 eggs in the colors of blue, red, green and yellow are placed in the nest and then Dino is switched on. In your turn you must roll the die and take an egg in the color rolled from the nest. To do so you must also lift the leaf on top of the nest. If Dino keeps still until you have placed the egg down in front of you, you may keep it because you have secured it. If you roll the side of with all four colors you may chose any egg from the nest. If you roll the cross, you lose your turn and the next player rolls the die.

But if Dino did notice the rescue operation, he wakes up and swoops at the player – and this player is so much frightened that he ends his turn and the current rescue operation for the egg fails. The player must drop out of the game and can only watch the rescue efforts of the other players. The last player still in the game wins.

As a variant you can assign point values depending on color and go on playing until all eggs are saved, in this case the waking up of Dino only ends the turn and the player remains in the game. Or you can also simply count the numb er of eggs rescued by each player.

Dino Meal is a simple game of action and dexterity that can be played already by small children. Dinos are always an attractive topic for children and the game mechanisms are well known from other games of a similar kind. This version scores a hit with the dinosaur topic and the attractive if somewhat gruesome dinosaur figure.
