Happy Little Dinosaurs

Players try to dodge a parade of petty and catastrophic mishaps as rounds reveal Disaster cards categorized as Natural, Predatory, or Emotional. Each round, players play Point cards (0–9) to score and attempt to avoid the revealed disaster, while Instant cards can be used to alter outcomes or rescue a player. Collecting three Disaster cards of the same type or three different types eliminates a player; reaching 50 points or being the last survivor wins. Player boards track a dinosaur’s traits, an Escape Route for scoring, and a Disaster Area for collected disasters.
