About this game

Scientists vs. a mama raptor protecting her babies in a 2-player asymmetric card duel. Each round, both players simultaneously reveal a numbered card. The lower number uses that card's special action; the higher number gets action points equal to the difference. Scientists try to tranquilize mama or capture three babies; the raptor tries to eat scientists or get three babies to safety. The simultaneous card play creates a bluffing game within the tactical puzzle. Fast, tense, and wildly asymmetric.
