I have both a Jurassic Park pro and Star Wars pro in my collection. I played a Star Wars pin at a show once and was completely underwhelmed. It did nothing for me. Just seemed like a cheap knock off.
Today I visited my local distributor to get a few games on Godzilla (have a premium on order but looking like the soonest I’ll see it is next August!). They’d just recently set up a Jurassic Park pin. After playing the Star Wars I wasn’t expecting much, but I wanted to be able to at least say I’d given JP pin a few plays.
Man, what a fast, fun, flowy game! JP pin easily holds its own as a proper game. Whereas Star Wars pin felt like a cheap, copycat, knock-off (to me, maybe not to others), JP pin was a fun enough, different feeling game that I could even see someone wanting to have the full size version next to one of these pins.
Great game. Will look forward to playing it again sometime.
