Giganten , also named as "Dinosaures Giganti" is a 2-player board game designed by Herbert Pinthus and first published in 1981 by Carlit.
[1] Gameplay is inspired by another game "Stratego" and created in prehistoric setting.
The large won the Essen Feather-prize (prize for the best rules) in 1983.
[2] Each player has a set of 23 saurians (dinosaurs of various kinds, pterodactyls, plesiosaurs, etc) which are stand-up cardboard pieces with plain backs, so the opponent cannot tell which piece is which.
Pieces move and attack each other Stratego-fashion, with the goal being to find your opponent's eggs.
