Dino Bite from Drumond Park

Like lots of four year olds, Sandy is dinosaur mad – verging on obsessed.  Dino Bite is a fun new game for every dinosaur fan.  Each player bravely takes turns to save the newly hatched baby dinosaurs from beneath the gaping jaws of the ferocious T-Rex. But gently does it, one wrong move and T-Rex roars out loud and lunges forward revealing his scary sharp teeth!

Sandy excitedly helps me set the game up. He thinks it looks great. The T-Rex stands over a large green leaf covering 20 baby dinosaurs. The plastic feels substantial and the jungle sound effects complete the scene. Sandy rolls the dice and anxiously uses the tweezers to pluck a red dino baby out – "does it really bite?" he asks nervously looking at the T-Rex. 

We take it in turns to roll the coloured dice, carefully lift the leaf and remove the dino babies. I manage to rescue four before the T-Rex lunges at my hand. I can’t help jumping and laughing!  Sandy looks relieved – I’m not sure if he’s comforted because I’m not really hurt, or whether he’s pleased that I’m the one that got caught!  We set it up to play again.

Drumond Park’s Dino Bite (RRP £19.99) is for two to four players, aged four plus. The game is lots of fun for all the family. It is also simple enough for Sandy to happily play alone with his friends and it has been a playdate hit with boys and girls alike.
