Dinotopia

Has anyone played a game in this setting? How did it go?

(Bump)

As a mostly nonviolent exploration and social setting, it works fine for books. An RPG is going to be odd and niche.

>Modern-ish part swims ashore on an uncharted island after a shipwreck
>finds ruins of Dinotopia after a terrible schism that drove the dinosaurs against the humans
>all the people are dead mostly
>the dinosaurs are still around
>they're still intelligent

Basically Jurassic Park with stone ruins

And ancient crystal-powered dinomechs, don't forget tho- wait a second, that sounds kinda like the Power Rangers.

What about a game delving into predator strewn ruins, or recovering necessary macguffins from newly landed survivors seeking to either escape or bend the populace to their rule with threat of chaos otherwise? Or plague from one group causing schisms that the party must stop before Dinotopia ends up a series of warring city states trying to prevent their own descent into destruction as contact is too risky and resources that are useable run low?

If you throw canon out the window (and why wouldn't you, despite the setting being cool the plot is generally awful) you can turn Dinotopia into a pretty interesting political setting.

You just reminded me to pick up these books again...

Some people *like* a break from violent games everyone in a couple while.

Adventure games are a thing, I'd assume the Dinotopia setting would be a great place for adventures through the jungles and politicking.
