Survive In a Savage World With Dino Battle

Before humanity. Before civilization. A blood mist blots out the horizon. War rages. Command your tribe of dinosaur riders in an epic primeval struggle for dominance. Seize arcane glyphs scattered across the ravaged landscape, and their secure mystical boons for your people. Harness the crackling power of mighty energy crystals to devastate your enemies with relentless speed and ferocity. Hoard precious blood fruit, a rare resource in this cursed wasteland.

Trample enemies beneath your towering Brachiosaurus. Outflank and outnumber your opponents with your ruthless Velociraptors. Control sacred shrines with your powerful T-Rex and hunt your enemies to extinction. In this savage world, only the strongest survive.

  • Designed by Stephen Baker and Roger Ford, the original creators of Die Schlacht der Dinosaurier and acclaimed classics HeroScape and Space Crusade.
  • Command six unique dinosaur species, brought to life with over 30 miniatures sculpted directly from artwork by The Mico.
  • Experience fast-paced, 'beer-and-pretzels' Ameritrash gameplay, faithfully updated from the beloved 1990s classic for modern players.
  • Live out the fantasy of dinosaur-mounted warriors battling for dominance.
  • Expand your game with double-sided modular boards that add new strategic possibilities and replayability.
