About Dino Hunt

A collectible card game from Steve Jackson aimed directly at the kids. The core game comes with everything you need and boosters just add more options. Each player gets 10 action points each turn to go back in time and collect dinosaurs. You start your turn by rolling a die and putting out that many new dinos for hunting. You travel to different time periods and hunt the dinos by rolling a die and comparing the total to a list on the card.
