About the game
The Lost World exists! The legendary place where dinosaurs survived has been kept in secret for centuries. However, its intense volcanic activity threatens with its end. Join the rescue party, explore the place and save as many animals as you can from… Extinction! Explore the 73 "Lost World" cards and discover up to 23 different species of dinosaurs. Use their skills to survive in "your territory" and save them in one of the 22 safe environments that you will discover during the game. But caution! Because every time you save dinosaurs, a "Butterfly Effect" can affect everyone and accelerate the end of the game. The explorer who has saved the most dinosaurs at the end will be the winner. —description from the designer ¡El Mundo Perdido existe! El legendario lugar en el que sobrevivieron los dinosaurios se ha mantenido en secreto durante siglos. Sin embargo, su intensa actividad volcánica amenaza con su fin. Únete a la partida de rescate, explora el lugar y salva el mayor número de animales de esta nueva ¡Extinción! Explora las 73 cartas de Mundo Perdido y descubre hasta 23 especies distintas de dinosaurios. Usa sus habilidades para que sobrevivan en "tu terreno" y ponlos a salvo en uno de los 22 entornos seguros que iréis descubriendo durante la partida. Pero ¡cuidado!, porque cada vez que salves dinosaurios, se producirá un Efecto Mariposa, que puede afectar a todos y acelerar el final del juego. El explorador que más dinosaurios haya rescatado cuando el Mundo Perdido se extinga, será el ganador. —description from the designer (Spanish)
