Happy Little Dinosaurs
Dodge meteors, lava, and bad dates, and laugh when your friends do not.
Who it's for
Friends with a sense of humor who like a bit of card-based mischief, like a pettier cousin of Uno. Best with four at the table.
Not for you if…
You dislike being knocked out or targeted. Player elimination and take-that cards mean someone will occasionally have a bad time.
Vibe's take
Light, jokey, and a bit mean in the friendly way. You read the room, sneak points, and gleefully watch someone else catch the third disaster.
About this game
Happy Little Dinosaurs is a card game where you play a dinosaur dodging life's disasters: lava pits, predators, and getting ghosted by your dino date. Each round a Disaster card is revealed, and everyone secretly plays a Point card to grab points and slip past the trouble. Collect three disasters of the same type, or three different ones, and you are out. The first dino to 50 points or the last one standing wins. Expect a mix of push-your-luck, set collection, and take-that moments, delivered with jokes. It plays two to four, takes about an hour, and suits teens and adults with a sense of humor.
