Have you ever wanted to go to Jurassic Park? I was one of those strange dinosaur kids that knew the name of every dinosaur by the time I was five. However, once I saw the film and Jeff Goldblum’s trick about the water - there was no way you could put me in a park with that madness unfolding. Luckily for us board gamers, we have a backup plan that doesn't require us to leave our own homes. It is the same tactic I took to become a master surgeon and to outswim a shark with my friends. And that is to check out the board game, and Pandasaurus Games has now added Dinosaur Island to their pre-order section on their website.

Story and narrative is something I really enjoy as part of playing board games. Especially if I am able to go on a fantasy whirlwind adventure alongside whimsical characters as if taken from a storybook of age.  Upcoming from publisher dV Giochi later this year, the cooperative adventure Wonderbook does exactly that. Playing through a pop-up storybook as the board, players work together to journey through the fantastical world of Oniria.
