First Impressions

This is just a basic Checkers game with dinosaur-shaped pieces instead of disks. But the dino appeal seems to bring its own magic to the game - at least one family has already posted that a child who was never before interested in playing Checkers does want to play this game. The 3D Jurassic landscapes are a cool feature. They're not actually part of the game - they're just used to store captured pieces in tar pits and T-Rex perched on the volcano waitng to "crow" any pieces that make it accross the board - but they defintely add to the ambience.

Manufacturer's Description

Battling dinos turn traditional checkers into a time-warped tussle! Teaches logical thinking skills, strategy, and more! Stegosaurus and Brontosaurus playing pieces battle for squares of lava, then become Tyrannosaurus Rexes when kinged. Captured dinos gointo the sculpted plastic 'tar pits!
