Jurassic Wars Scoops Top Award
"A clever and original game" - David Smith, Editor, Toy Talk
Jurassic Wars won Best Board Game in the Toy Talk Awards 2009. The awards, which were announced on 30 October 2009, are based on feedback from an independent consumer panel, including families, who test the toys and games.
"Dinosaurs are a natural for a combat game, so it’s hardly surprising that Jurassic Wars emerged triumphant in our Board and Card Games category," explained David Smith, editor of online magazine Toy Talk. "A clever combination of Top Trumps style cards and combat dice, with great dino imagery and a mixture of luck and skill, grabs the attention right away."
“We are delighted to be recognized by Toy Talk,” commented Antony Brown, co-founder of Dice Maestro. “It is especially pleasing that the judging process involves ‘hands-on’ testing by families and games players. This means the awards are a good reflection of consumer opinion.”
The judging criteria included:
- Play Value
- Value For Money
- Originality
- Build Quality
- Eco-Friendliness
- Long-Term Appeal.
ToyTalk is the online magazine covering news, reviews and interviews concerning all aspects of toys and games. For more details see the Toy Talk Awards website.
