Description

--- Jurassic World is a cooperative, dice-rolling board game for 2-6 players focused on managing a dinosaur park while mitigating breakout risks. Key mechanics include: - *Cooperative play* Players collaborate to fulfill mission requirements and prevent the danger meter from reaching 20. - *Employee selection* Each player chooses an employee with unique skills for tasks like placing buildings and creating dinosaurs. - *Phased turns* Collective preparation phase for strategic banner placement, followed by individual action phase based on banner positions. - *Dice-rolling actions* Roll dice to succeed in digging/researching/placing dinosaurs, building entertainment structures, or buying upgrades. - *Visitor management* Entertain visitors to promote the park. - *Breakout risks* More dinosaurs increase chances of breakouts, raising the danger meter with potential gruesome consequences. Jurassic World is a cooperative board game for 2-6 players blending strategic teammate choices and dice-rolling luck. Players select employees with specialized skills to manage a dinosaur park, placing buildings, creating dinosaurs, and entertaining visitors to spread word. Turns begin collectively in the preparation phase with strategic banner placement, enabling action phase tasks like digging up or researching dinosaurs, enclosing them in paddocks, constructing entertainment buildings, or acquiring upgrades—all resolved by rolling the right dice numbers. Success allows fulfilling mission requirements for victory, but accumulating dinosaurs heightens breakout risks, advancing the danger meter; if it reaches 20, all players lose. ---
