This game is certainly a good alternative to the popular park simulation games Theme Park World and Zoo Tycoon. The only official PS2 Jurassic Park game offers a new gameplay experience where you get to try and build a park for dinosaurs. The aim is to build a popular park that the visitors will like.
The graphics arent splendid, but it does the job nicely. You can clearly spot all individual visitors and dinosaurs and the island/s look realistic and suitable. The gameplay is good. You even get 12 relevant missions to attempt, despite them being slightly simple. The park building on the other hand, has plenty of options. ie types of dinosaurs, islands, buildings and the quantities of them. The only easy part is getting money. That you dont have to worry about.
Perhaps its the sound that makes this game fairly decent. The sound effects are similar to that in the jurassic park movies and you cant really complain about that.
Overall, Jurassic Park operation genesis is a great simulation to try out and dinosaur fans are likely to like it. I do, anyway.
RATING: 8/10
