About the game
There's a chill in the air... And these creatures feel right at home! The Ice Age Pack adds even more variety to your park with additional components and gameplay. Place these mammal enclosures anywhere in your park (yes, anywhere - even next to dinosaurs) and roll a special Ice die when activating them. You will also score adjacency bonuses for these enclosures at the end of the game. However, you can only claim one bonus per creature you've built - so make sure to plan wisely! Components: - 6 animals (24 color meeples) - 6 park tiles - 1 die -description from Kickstarter campaign

Questions and answers
Dinosaur World: Ice Age Pack supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. 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 Dinosaur World: Ice Age Pack is 60–120 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 Dinosaur World: Ice Age Pack for ages 10 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.
Dinosaur World: Ice Age Pack has a complexity rating of 3.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-weight 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.
Dinosaur World: Ice Age Pack belongs to these categories: Animals, Science Fiction, and Expansion for Base-game. Its main mechanics are Dice Rolling, Tile Placement, and Worker Placement. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The credited designers of Dinosaur World: Ice Age Pack are: Brian Lewis, David McGregor, and Marissa Misura. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers. Designer pages on MeepleRules collect other titles by the same designers, which helps when you enjoy a game and want to find similar ones.
The catalogue lists Dinosaur World: Ice Age Pack as an expansion for Dinosaur World. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Dinosaur World to use it. Check that your edition of Dinosaur World is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
