Several years ago, scientists discovered a way to clone dinosaurs from viable DNA preserved within the fossil record. After a few mishaps along the way, the process has stabilized. Today, its the museums that have gone practically extinct, as shrewd investors have turned those initial dinosaurs sanctuaries into bustling theme parks, true mecas for dino fans the world over.
In Dinosaur Island, each player takes on the role of a park manager at one of the premier destinations. You've been handed the reins to a burgeoning operation - bring the fantastic creatures of the Jurassic, Triassic and Cretaceous periods forward into the modern day. Early retirement is hours if you can make your park bigger and better than the competition!
Dinosaur Island is a hot new game from designers Jon Gilmour (Dead of Winter) and Brian Lewis where players compete to open the best Dinosaur Island Theme Park they can. Find out why Dinosaur Island has sold more than 40,000 copies and been nominated for more than 10 Game of the Year awards!
