How to Play
To start the game, the players would either shout "恐竜召喚!" (Kyouryuu Shoukan!) or the name of the Dinosaur Card followed by "I choose you!". The game follows the basic RPS pattern, but Critical beats the other 3 signs. As seen in the Dinosaur Cards, the Attack number higher than the other 2 is the Critical Move. The Hybridosaurs must be summoned by the appropriate combination on their cards. The Fusion Move Cards can only be used by Double-Element Hybridosaurs or 2 Dinosaurs of 2 completely different Elements.
Notes
- The word "Hybridosaur" is a portmanteau of "hybrid" and "dinosaur".
- In Teams mode, the name of the team determines the number of members. Assist-Type Special Dinosaurs don't count.
- 3-7 members = Clan
- 8-13 members = Alliance
- 14-19 members = Kingdom
