Lately,
it feels like we’re all just dinosaurs trying to avoid the falling
meteors. In this game, you’ll try to dodge all of life’s little
disasters. You might fall into a pit of hot lava or get ghosted by your
dino date, but the dino who survives it all wins the game!
In Happy Little Dinosaurs, the first person
to reach 50 points, or be the last Dinosaur standing, wins the game!
During each round, you’ll flip a Disaster card featuring a Natural,
Predatory, or Emotional disaster. Each player will play a Point card in
hopes of collecting points and avoiding the disaster.
You will work to avoid all of life’s little disasters and laugh as
they happen to your friends. If you collect 3 Disaster cards of the same
type OR 3 different types of Disaster cards, you will be out of the
game. Point cards feature weapons, trinkets, and good luck charms that
you use to collect points and avoid disasters. Each card has a point
value between 0 and 9 that you will use when scoring a round. You can
use Instant cards at different points during the game to tip the odds in
your favor or save your Dinosaur from certain death.
Player boards include your Dinosaur’s traits, an Escape Route you use
to track your score, and a Disaster Area where you will collect
Disaster cards. Player boards include your Dinosaur’s traits, an Escape
Route you use to track your score, and a Disaster Area where you will
collect Disaster cards. You’ll move your Dinosaur meeple along the
Excape Route on your player board to track your score. Will you
successfully dodge the disasters or get eaten by a prehistoric whale?
Only the cards can decide.
