Play fast and simple
Hunt and eat herbivores
The Four Stats: (-2 to +2)

Injury and Death
Harmed? Pick a stat, or the GM will. Mark it as hurt. Pick that stat again? Mark its debility: -1 ongoing. Pick it a third time? Final debility: -2 ongoing. Pick it a fourth time? Your dinosaur is dead. Serious dangers can do 2, 3, or even 4 harm, sometimes to a specific stat.
The Moves:

Crush: roll + Bulk. 7+ shove into a bad spot, deal damage or choose a tag and remove it. 7-9 choose: also deal Harm to yourself, or left in a bad spot.
Dash: roll + Lithe. 10+ get there. Fast. 7-9: hard bargain, attract attention or destroy scenery en route.
Lurk: roll + Cunning. 7+ ask/tell one. 10+ ask/tell three. Questions: [edit in later!]
