Dinodocus

Dinodocus is an engaging card game for 2 to 6 players, ideal for matches lasting around 45 minutes. In it, you become a true master of evolution, creating powerful dinosaurs that must survive in a competitive environment. In the game, each player uses cards that represent different parts of the dinosaur's body, allowing you to custom-build unique creatures. The cards not only show physical characteristics, but also have syllables that form fun names and attack and defense values. This means that each dinosaur you build has its own sparkle and personality. The game mechanics are dynamic: each turn, you draw cards and use your creativity to create or modify dinosaurs. You also have to take care of their diet. Herbivores will rely on a shared set of vegetation tokens, while carnivores will try to hunt to ensure their survival. The interesting thing is that if a dinosaur can't feed itself, it's doomed to extinction. The longer your dinosaur survives, the more victory points you accumulate. Interaction between players is a fundamental part of Dinodocus. The modification phase is full of negotiations and strategies, where bluffing and appeals can be the key to modifying your opponents' dinosaurs and ensuring that yours remain intact. Sharing stories of past plays always adds a unique touch to each match. If you're looking for a fun game where laughter and competition go hand in hand, Dinodocus is the perfect choice!

GAME mechanics

• Agreements - In "Dinodocus", players can form temporary alliances to achieve strategic goals. This can include exchanging resources or supporting each other in battles. My friend always says: it's like prehistoric Diplomacy!
• Bets and Bluffs - This is the heart of the game. Players place bets on their actions or intentions, which can trigger reactions from their opponents. I love the tension in the air when I see someone deciding between taking a risk or bluffing.
• Hand Management - Similar to classic card management, here you organize your "deck" of dinosaurs and resources. For beginners: don't overestimate your "brachiosaurus" in hand, or you could end up with no options at critical moments.
• Solving with Statistics Tests - Actions are determined by testing the dinosaurs' statistics. Relying on the right statistics can be the difference between victory and defeat. As my gaming colleague says: it's like rolling the dice with eagle eyes!
