Dino Twist

Players compete to gather the strongest dinosaurs from the island of Twist and build their own dinosaur island. Each round, an event affects all players before everyone chooses a dinosaur card from hand and reveals it simultaneously. Dinosaurs attack in strength order, but can only challenge dinosaurs of the same species. Matching cards are discarded, while successful attacks bring dinosaurs back to the player's island. After ten events, players score their collected dinosaurs, with bonuses for completing an island early and gathering dinosaurs with large claws. A simpler island layout supports younger players, while the advanced game adds territory and species restrictions.
