About the game
Game description from the publisher: For more than 150 million years, dinosaurs were the absolute rulers of the earth! With T-Rex greift an! – first published as Das große Dinosaurier-spiel – the dinosaurs come back to life once more! As dinosaurs roaming the countryside in search of food, players hunt for other dinosaurs and their provisions. Only someone who collects enough food and lays enough eggs can survive long term. Players need to be particularly careful when a T-Rex attacks and wants to destroy your precious eggs. Then a bubbling volcano might throw lava blocks about and block your escape routes to safety.
