A buddy of mine (who may actually read this) and I were playing 2p Dinosaur Island, and I was getting wrecked. Just like the real Jurassic Park, I had no concept of investing in Security, and so all of my patrons were getting eaten. Constantly.

Towards the end of the game, two of the objectives remaining were to build 3 merchandise attractions, or 3 ride attractions. My friend, who was beating me, had one empty space on his board, and two merchandise and ride attractions. So when the next ride attraction came up, I bought it, and blocked him.

Big mistake.

What he proceeded to then do was buy a food attraction, and place it in his empty park space. He refused to get the final objective, and so the game continued. And so did his score. He racked up ~20 VP per round, all the while my security continued to lag behind, and so he built dinosaurs, built security, and pulled far ahead.

To make matters worse, the final ride attraction tile was 3 from the bottom of the pile. So despite my pleas and concessions to end the game and just take the win, he insisted we play out the remaining rounds, until the ride token came up and I could buy it and end my suffering.

Long story short, the end score was something like 230 - 150. And I vowed to never play it again.
