How to use

Set the barrel on a flat surface and ensure the dinosaur mechanism is correctly seated according to the included assembly guidance. Players sit around the barrel and take turns inserting a peg or object into any available slot, or press pegs as specified by the chosen rule set. If the spring mechanism is triggered and the dinosaur pops up on a player’s turn, that player receives the designated penalty or is eliminated for that round, depending on agreed rules. Rounds can be replayed quickly and rules adapted for younger players by limiting insertion depth or reducing the number of active slots.

Usage recommendations

Use on a stable, level surface and supervise young children during play. Follow the age guidance on the packaging and avoid forcing pegs if resistance indicates misalignment. Store the game in a dry place and inspect plastic parts periodically for wear to maintain safe play.
