How to play: First, decide who will be the scientists and who will be the raptors. Each player gets a set of cards. In each round, both players play a card. The one with the lower - ranked card takes an action. The other player gets movement and attack points based on the difference in card values. Scientists can use actions like using fire, moving by jeep on tracks, or calling for reinforcements. Raptors can hide in bushes, yell to scare scientists, and call for babies. Notice: Make sure to keep track of card values and actions clearly. Don't mix up the pawns of scientists and raptors. Maintenance: Keep the cards and the board in a dry place to avoid damage. If the pieces get dirty, you can gently wipe them with a soft cloth.
