A rules-lite wargame about a dinosaur apocalypse. Based on One Page Rules, the entire game fits on one double-sided page. It's a simple game for kitbashing unique models by mixing toy dinosaurs with toy soldiers. Similar in style to Gaslands, Dystopiasaurus is model agnostic.

Basic rules for the game

  • Players deploy their models to the board and the objective markers.
  • Players alternative activating one of their models to perform 1 action.
    • Prep (draw 2 cards).
    • Move (no shooting).
    • Charge (move into melee).
    • Shoot (move & shoot).
  • Combat is played out as duels: each player flips a set number of cards from their deck, and the highest card wins.
    • Players can choose one card in their hand to replace one of their flipped cards.
    • Cards flipped changes based on the dinosaur type, with each having an Attack value and Defense value.
  • At the end of the round, players earn victory points based upon their proximity to an objective marker and how many models they eliminated that round.
