In the beginning, the people were worried their dinosaurs would rampage through their Dinosaur Island box, eating all the visitors, and so the Dinosaur Island Insert was given to the people and they were happy. Now, the waters are not safe, and the people are worried once again.

Behold, the Dinosaurs All The Way Down insert designed to hold all the game pieces for both Dinosaur Island and the expansion -- Totally Liquid (TL)!

This gets a little complicated so bear with me as I step through the insert and how it fits across the DI and TL boxes (yeah, between the tightness of the Dinosaur Island box, and the avalanche of new material in the Totally Liquid expansion, the Totally Liquid box is needed, along with the DI box, in order to store everything).

The TL pieces breakdown into two main groups:

• Additional standard pieces – these are pieces to add to the game even if you aren’t using any of the expansion
• Expansion Modules – Five additional modules that can be mixed and matched, including a 5th player

Looking at everything, I tweaked the existing Dinosaur Island insert to accommodate the additional standard pieces in the Dinosaur Island box so you can carry just the main box and play. Surprisingly, with all the new standard pieces (6 additional dice, Specialist and Plot Twist cards, Recipes, and Lab Improvements), I only had to modify 2 pieces in the original insert, and one of those two pieces actually gets reused in the TL box! Everything is just as tight as it was before, maybe even a little tighter.

Additionally, I've modification the original Dino Cash box by reworking it into two half-height cash trays so you can distribute money trays around the table.

The TL box now holds everything for the expansion modules. The challenging part was the box is much bigger than the pieces, so I had to leverage the existing cardboard insert in the TL box after some slight modifications. Links to instructions are in the Post Processing section below.

The link in the post processing section below also has a complete rundown on matching game pieces to insert pieces, as well as a packing diagram, so I won't rehash that here.

Complete DI / TL Print List - A full set for a complete Dinosaur Island / Totally Liquid package would be the following:

• 2 x Cards - 60 Count - base - ICT
• 2 x Cards - 60 Count - lid - ICT
• 2 x TL_Dino_Cash_short
• 1 x Dino Cage
• 1 x DNA Dice
• 1 x Modifiers - This is still needed, it just moves to the TL box
• 1 x TL_PAIR-v3-15mm - This is both larger for new base game tiles as well as shorter for better access to the tiles (and shorter print time). See update below for info on new version of this print
• 1 x Patrons
• 5 x Player Tray v2 - The fifth tray goes in the TL box
• 3 x TL_Facilities_Tray-v6
• 2 x TL_BoardLock_v2 - These are used in the TL box to lock the boards in place to prevent other shifting in the box
• 1 x TL_Card_Tray-v2
• 1 x TL_Marine_Creatures_v4 - This stores all the marine dinos, as well as recipes and paddocks. NOTE: The blank Marine Creatures recipe tile goes in the PAIR tray, instead of here)
• 1 x TL_Modifiers_Notched - This goes in the DI box and takes the place of the original Modifiers piece. It has two compartments, one for plot twist dice, and one for the original modifiers tokens

TL Upgrade Print List - If you already have the previous Dinosaur Island insert and just want to "plus" it up to store Totally Liquid, then here is what you need:

• 2 x TL_Dino_Cash_short - Optional - if you want to leverage two trays instead of a single deep box
• 1 x TL_PAIR-v3-15mm - This is both larger for new base game tiles as well as shorter for better access to the tiles (and shorter print time). See update below for info on new version of this print
• 1 x Player Tray v2 - This fifth tray goes in the TL box
• 3 x TL_Facilities_Tray-v6
• 2 x TL_BoardLock_v2 - These are used in the TL box to lock the boards in place to prevent shifting in the box
• 1 x TL_Card_Tray-v2
• 1 x TL_Marine_Creatures_v4 - This stores all the marine dinos, as well as recipes and paddocks. NOTE: The blank Marine Creatures recipe tile goes in the PAIR tray, instead of here)
• 1 x TL_Modifiers_Notched - This goes in the DI box and takes the place of the original Modifiers piece. It has two compartments, one for plot twist dice, and one for the original modifiers tokens

Check out the Dinosaurs All the Way Down Tips and Tricks link for instructions on how to integrate the pieces, as well as the modifications required for the TL cardboard insert.

Note: The Dinosaur Island X-Treme edition box (which is the version of the base game that was offered during the 2nd Kickstarter) is slightly shorter in height/depth than the original Dinosaur Island Deluxe edition box. The end result is that the inserts for the Dinosaur Island box will impart a bit of lid lift when the box is closed.

UPDATE: 05 Jan 2019 - The original TL_PAIR file has been updated to TL_PAIR-v3. I was alerted that the wells were oversized for some of the sets of tiles, and also received some great feedback about separating the 3+ and 4+ tiles to further ease setup. So, TL_PAIR-v3-15mm is the result. This new version of the tray is slightly shorter in length and should have wells sized correctly for the tile counts (My original Deluxe version of DI evidently had an extra punchboard).
