Description

the bone wars were never this much fun!

The Great Dinosaur Rush, or the Bone Wars as they’re otherwise called, were a period of incredible advancement in paleontology (discovery of fossils).

Players take the roles of paleontologists in the late 1800’s, competing to find the most lucrative dig sites, find the best bones and build the most unique dinosaurs for the world’s most prestigious museums.

Gain notoriety by stealing bones, sabotaging dig sites and otherwise impeding the other paleontologists. You’ll need to play dirty if you want to win – just not TOO dirty!
