JurassAttack! - Green Couch Games

After a few games with the kids this evening I pulled out a new game.  The game was a quick little 2 player game called JurassAttack!.  We had never played this before and I knew I only had a few minutes before the kids were done changing into pajamas and brushing their teeth.

We cruised through the rules pretty quickly.  I did however have the JurassAttack! Promo Pack mixed in so we weren't sure about how all the cards worked.  We started off and almost right away the kids showed up and started asking questions.  We had to keep them from asking too many questions about what does a number 9 do or that Tyrannosaurus Rex looks awesome so the other person didn't know what we had.

We stumbled through the first game and I won 25 to 22.  But I know we interpreted a few of the cards from the promo pack wrong.  We played again much to the kids excitement, as they both said they liked watching us play it.  We feel we played the promo pack correctly this time and my wife clobbered me with a score of 36 to 16.


Players:
John Stout
Angela Stout

Pros:
This game was easy to learn and was quick and fun to play.  The art was enjoyable and it would be good for gamers of all ages that can read.

Cons:
We both agreed that the card size was annoying.  Their was no reason for the extra large cards.  Just the 8 cards from the promo pack make it so the box barely stays on the game.  If they had been standard sized cards it would have stored better.

Play Again?:
Yes.  My wife asked to play a second time right after the first which is a good sign that she enjoyed it.
