Ravensburger Jurassic Park Danger! Adventure Strategy Board Game for Kids & Adults Age 10 Years Up - Family Games - 2 to 5 Players

Product Information

The attention to detail extends from the card backs to the unique, pedestal-mounted miniature scale dinosaurs.

Let’s pretend it’s 1993 all over again, and you just saw Jurassic Park for the first time in theaters. The puzzle-esque nature is interesting and each tile has its own unique design making for a visually appealing game. The more recent trend of having older movies converted into board game form has seen some surprising, older movies adapted for the tabletop though – and there’s an unusual thread linking them aside from their source material.The instructions make what is actually quite a straightforward game, appear very complicated and we all know this can put a new player off a game very quickly. I’m very sad my idea was “stolen” by the original creator but happy to know I can have good ideas…I’m not sure how to feel tho.

Likewise with having to roll for doing anything except running; the human player is at a distinct disadvantage here – and with three dinosaurs in play in a relatively small area anyway, this seems like a misjudged attempt to balance the humans vs dinosaurs dynamic. The board, even with the clever tile system, is not actually big enough to allow for any real strategy as it is only five tiles across at its widest. Board Game by Ravensburger is a thrilling and action-packed game that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

The challenge of the game for the players playing as the human characters comes in figuring a way to use the actions on the cards to maneuver around the island, activate the locations, achieve their personal goal, and get to the helicopter pad.

Plus it doesn’t take me long to convince other members of our family to play again when I tell them they can control the dinosaurs. Solange aber ein Erwachsener (der halbwegs englisch kann) dabei ist und die Regeln erklären kann, können auch kleinere Kinder mitspielen!Eso sí, las instrucciones son en inglés, aunque es posible que en internet se puedan encontrar en español. The action economy is fun, makes a good match for the subject matter, and feels well-balanced in relation to the game’s overall level of threat. Despite those rules issues, it’s a very straightforward game (‘lay an action card and carry out that action’ being the basis of the gameplay).
