About the game
A pack of 5 public objective cards that were free to Kickstater backers, but will be available for non-backers. These cards, unlike the visitor cards, asks players to draw a number of dinosaurs in specific shapes (including OR excluding generators). Players who achieve them first score 12 points while other players who achieve them later score 7 points. These are publically accessible cards, meaning that all players are tasked with trying to achieve them for extra points. This means that players who have visitor cards which are predominantly carnivore or herbivore heavy, will not be penalised so is in effect balanced, and essentially asking players to play with spatial elements more carefully.
