The dinosaurs have returned and they are hungry, territorial as well as ready to chomp! Chomp is a dinosaur strategy board game where you build prehistoric habitats, create herds, gather food plus carefully protect your dinosaurs from extinction. Every tile card you place can shape your growing ecosystem, so clever positioning is essential if you want to finish with the highest score.
 
Across eight rounds, choose from dino tiles or goal tiles before adding your selection to your personal prehistoric landscape. Dinosaur tiles come in different sizes, with herbivores grazing for food while carnivores pose a much bigger threat. Build herds by connecting dinosaurs of the same species, then make sure each group has access to enough food to survive.
 
Placement is where the real strategy begins. New dinosaur tiles must overlap previously placed tiles, potentially covering dinosaurs completely. A hungry carnivore may devour an adjacent herbivore, while tar pits plus unfed creatures can cause further casualties. Your perfect habitat can become a prehistoric disaster remarkably quickly, so every new dinosaur needs careful consideration.
 
Goal tiles provide another route to valuable points, giving you incentives to shape your landscape in particular ways. Eggs can also provide bonus points, while living and fed dinosaurs score according to their size. The challenge is finding the sweet spot between attracting impressive creatures, keeping them fed plus preventing your carefully built ecosystem from becoming a fossil graveyard.
 
Chomp combines tile placement, individual player goals plus tactical resource management in an engaging dinosaur board game suitable for family game nights. With simple concepts hiding plenty of strategic decisions, it offers a prehistoric puzzle where every hungry dinosaur could change your plans.
