OVERVIEW

Survive the Chaos!
In Very Bad Lands, you will play different Dinosaur species battling for their very survival. Disasters are a constant threat, you’ll have to make the right choice to avoid them.

 

Use your Dinosaur’s power at the right time to survive... just a little longer than any one of your opponents.

Each of your turns involves a simple yet crucial decision: Keep your card or swap it either with the person to your left or the card in the centre of the table. At the end of the round, all cards are revealed, and the person with the lowest number loses 1 Life. Too easy? Just wait until the Disasters come along and turn the whole game upside down!

The game ends when at least one Dino loses all their Lives, and the remaining dinosaur shares the victory!

Each round is filled with twists and turns, with decisions that could either seal your fate or lead you to glorious victory! Every game promises a unique and epic gaming experience.
