Dino Island @ UK Games Expo (Birmingham, UK)

  • National Exhibition Centre Marston Green, England, B40 1PA United Kingdom (map)

Designer: Johan Soh-Olofsson

Journey Back to the Dawn of Time
Dino Island is a unique and thrilling theme park that takes visitors on a journey to the time of the dinosaurs. Unlike traditional parks, the dinosaurs at Dino Island have been brought to life through advanced genetic manipulation, making them as real as they were millions of years ago.

The Game
Dino Island is a hectic megagame for about 40 players with easy to pick up board and card game mechanics and prominent elements of negotiation and roleplaying as you try to run a Dinosaur research lab turned theme park. 

As a player, you can pick roles between being in charge and running a profitable park, working in one of the labs and balancing on the edge between entertainment and horror, creating thrilling attractions and hospitality opportunities, taking care of dinosaurs, or being part of the security team whose job is to literally "take care of dinosaurs".

Most roles will have some board game mechanics to resolve but the focus of the game will be on roleplay and negotiation - collaborating with your team, and competing for budget and publicity.
