Dinomeal is a board game released in 2010 for 1–4 players, 20 minutes per game, and ages 5 and up. Its main mechanics are Dice Rolling.
With realistic jungle noises and the shock of the lunging dinosaur, this is a game of spine-tingling excitement and fun for all adventurers. Each turn, players must save a Dino baby by lifting the giant leaf and sneaking out a Baby using the tweezers provided. But beware! If the T-Rex knows you're there, it roars out loud and lunges forward to scare you away from its next meal! General Gameplay: Players are competing to remove the most eggs from Dino's nest. However, at anytime the Dino could "strike" without warning! The game utilizes a random electronic timer and realistic dinosaur and jungle sounds. The rolling of the die determines which colored dinosaur egg you need to collect, the the players use the tweezers to retrive the eggs from the nest

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Dinomeal is 20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Dinomeal for ages 5 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Dinomeal has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
