Welcome to Dinosaur Island!

Several years ago, scientists discovered a way to clone dinosaurs from viable DNA preserved within the fossil record. After a few mishaps along the way, the process has stabilized. Today, it's the museums that have gone practically extinct, as shrewd investors have turned those initial dinosaur sanctuaries into bustling theme parks, true meccas for dino fans the world over.

In Dinosaur Island, each player takes on the role of a park manager at one of these premier destinations. You've been handed the reins to a burgeoning operation - bring the fantastic creatures of the Jurassic, Triassic, and Cretaceous periods forward into the modern day. Early retirement is yours if you can make your park bigger and better than the competition!

Excellent Quality

This board game was made exceptionally well. From the thick boards to the amber dice, it is clear that a lot of effort went into this game design. Although it took a few plays to really get the hang of it, this game is excellent. It has three different game lengths and thus each game is very unique. We like to put on the Jurassic Park soundtrack, and totally immerse outself! This is a perfect gift for Dino lovers, or anyone who grew up playing Zoo Tycoon. It’s loads of fun, and I highly recommend it!

How to play Dinosaur Island

ADD TO CART

- Tom Vasel, The Dice Tower

The game is really good. It’s one of my favorite games of the year. 

The theme integrates brilliantly with the mechanisms… if you love dinosaurs, if you love worker placement, I suspect you might love Dinosaur Island.

Beyond the stunning '80s artwork, sturdy components, and amazing Mesozoic theme, Dinosaur Island shines in its balance and potential for replayability.

Best Strategy Games to Mix Up Game Night

Having different dinosaurs, businesses and attractions to choose from makes the game endlessly replayable, and it perfectly evokes the classic theme park sims of PC gaming past.

Not only does the game offer a great strategy experience and offer a radical 80s/90s aesthetic, but the dinosaur meeples are the type of thing that people play with before and after the game.
