Overview
A fast-paced light-strategy worker placement board game about paleontology for 2-5 players.
Players use their Paleontologist, Grad Student and Field Assistant workers to gather fossils, do research and publish new Dinosaurs and Marine Reptiles as Holotypes. Personal and semi-collaborative Global Objectives feature modern paleontology concepts such as cladistics and taxonomy.
The player with the most Victory Points from publishing Holotypes, completing Personal Objectives and contributing to Global Objectives wins.
