I would need to get a second chance at playing Mice & Mystics to know if a cooperative dungeon crawl is really for me.

secretly assembling them into dinosaur skeletons

Why secretly? Are they going to bring the fossils to life and have them attack the other players? Can the same bones be used for different skeletons (very unscientific), so you don't want your competitors to know which you're building?

You could also join me for a game of Myth, which is less scripted and gives the players more choices. It doesn't have the cute mice characters, though...but it does have a rat.

Exactly. From what I gather, the players have cards depicting clusters of bones of different dinosaurs. If the player can put together, say, a red leg cluster from one card and a yellow tail cluster from another card and a blue head cluster (or whatever), the player scores points for those cards.

Keep in mind, I didn't read through the rules, I just skimmed the project page. That's what was shown in the pictures.
