Dinosaur Tea Party

Categories: Board games

Descriptions:

Its the most sought-after invitation of the year: Dinoton Abbey for high tea. Now youre all gussied up in your finery and ready for some tea and chit-chat. One problem: You cant remember anyones name. Whos that, sporting the fancy brooch with her pet chicken? Is that Jeannine? Beatrice? Oh, dear. If youre not careful, youll commit a faux pas everyone will be gossiping about.

Restored from Whosit? (published in 1976), Dinosaur Tea Party is a game of pure deduction for 2-5 homo sapiens. Each player takes a card corresponding to one of the dino guests. Players take turns asking each other questions or guessing their dinosaurs name. If someone guesses your name, draw a new card. The first player to guess three names wins the game. But be careful: three curious quirks mean you cant be certain whether that brachiosaurus in the bowler is Carlton or Quinton.

Charming art, streamlined play, and proper dinosaurs with make this game an irresistible delight.
