Cartamundi Jurassic World Escape The Island Card Game, For 2-4 Players, Great Gift For Kids Aged 6+

A good jurassic park game for any fans but it was quite expensive to buy

perfect gift for a 12 year old

My grandson loves this gift

This is a fun game suitable for all ages based on the new Jurassic Park film. It was very quick to setup and easy to learn. Gameplay lasted about 40 mins or so. The board is quite a nice design and all pieces are well made. However don't expect this to be like other film board games as it seems to be a lot more simplistic and is definitely aimed at a younger audience (it does say this in the listing).In short each player has numbered cards which they use to move backwards and forwards around the board. You also have token cards which are used to free the dinosaurs - once you've freed 3 you proceed to the final dino, release that one and win the game. It seems good for kids as it involves remembering symbols, matching and counting.Couple of points though - Firstly all playing pieces are dinosaurs. So you play as a dinosaur and free dinosaurs. I haven't seen the film (it's not out yet) so am not sure if this is what happens but it might have been nice if you could play as human characters from the film (Goldblum, Neil, Pratt et al). Also as described above the gameplay is quite one dimensional. For an adult it could get boring after a couple of goes. I can't help but think that the expensive price tag is because it says 'Jurassic Park' on the box - nothing within the gameplay actual seems to relate to the franchise and this could just be a generic dinosaur game. If you're a massive fan of the films I probably wouldn't bother and there may be something better out there for you.Sadly I didn't order this for children and am unlikely to play it very often - it's not a patch on the Ravensburger film games such as Jaws or BTTF but then maybe it's not meant to be. A tenner would have been a better price.

Fun game to play with my child he loves dinosaurs so the pictures on cards definitely encourage him to play more. We can spend hours playing.Very nice colorful set of cards, with good quality dino pictures. There's a few games you can play with those.Instructions for the games are not the best, but with a bit of a play you can figure it out.

Purchased as a birthday present. I’ve heard good things!

Great game for all ages and abilities

Fun board game with a Jurassic Park theme. After all, who doesn’t love dinosaurs?! Good quality game that is engaging for a wide range of ages.
