Dinosaur Island is a radical worker placement game where you compete to open the best Dinosaur Island Theme Park they can.

Take on the role of a park manager at a premier dino park destination. 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!

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.

It won't be a walk in the park, though. You will need to:

• Hire the right personnel
• Beat your competitors to perfecting the hottest dino recipes
• Gamble on which attractions will draw the most visitors

And (of course) it'll all come crashing down if your security precautions aren't tight enough to keep your unruly dino population under control.

Welcome to Dinosaur Island!
