Players are the researchers working feverishly to collect as many dinosaur eggs as possible to protect them from the meteors that are crashing into earth. On each turn, the players choose to play high cards to collect eggs or low cards to be able to direc t future collecting efforts. The turns end with meteor strikes that destroy the very resources (cards) the players need to collect eggs. As some eggs are more valuable than others, the winner is the one who collects the most points in dinosaur eggs i n the game.
