Way Better than Zoo Tychoon

I had never played any other SIM type game. I bought this game and it is the best. Great Graphics...really, really, great graphics. Games like Zoo Tychoon are a big disappointment after this one. The textures are rich and lifelike. There's "real" looking grass and trees. Dinos and objects reflect in the water (of course this depends how good a 3D card you have and you have to have one). My kids love to play it or watch us play it. It's very entertaining. Well worth the money.

Well, to start off with, for the most part,this is an excellent game. The dinosaurs and the enviroment are very life like. The interaction between the dinosaurs is also very realistic. However, the game is very limiting in what you can do. Everything that you can purchase is limited in number. For example, the fence pieces that you build the exhibits with, you are limited to 500 pieces. I only filled up half the island with exhibits, and I was prohibited from putting any more fence pieces down because I had"exceeded" the limit. Also once you beat all the missions, you unlock site B where you can create an island free of fences, visitors, etc. I had this idea I could create this great enviroment of many dinosaurs uinteracting naturally. However, you are limited to 60 dinosaurs. Now, I know that may seem like alot, but on a huge island enviroment, it is not very many. Other then the limits they impose on your ability to build your park, which are very frustrating to work around, this is a very good game, alittle too easy,but still a good game.

really cool, boring later

I have the Demo and it allows you to play a few games... That's the only drawback with the demo. I had a riot playing it! I'll have to buy it when I can afford it. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoyed the Jurassic Park movies. I didn't care for the construction part of the game, where you build the nurseries and so on... Boring... But shooting the dinosaurs was pretty cool. I'd recommend it.

Awsome period!

I was going to buy this game after seeing some awesome screenshots and reading UI's extended description of the game, but as a last-minute decision I decided to download and play the demo for it first.
I am very glad I did.
There is one major flaw with this game that I simply could not deal with:

You cannot zoom out far enough!

There is a zoom control that can take you up close to view areas of your park in close detail or it can take you high above your park to view things from a distance.
The problem is that it doesn't take you high enough.
This forces you to hover a small distance above the trees, giving you the ability to see only a small portion of your park at a time.
I don't know how the designers/testers failed to recognize this as a major flaw.

Other things I noticed (while trying to live with the zoom) were unnatural feeling controls (controls that take getting used to and really don't seem very logical) and a mouse cursor that behaves strangely .. it moves slightly out of sink with your hand movement or something (I couldn't quite put my finger on it).

So, in conclusion, this game is not worth buying .. if someone gives you the game for free, try to get used to it's flaws and have fun with some of the pretty cool stuff it has to offer.

AWESOME!

2 1/2 stars... I love Jurassic Park and was excited about playing a video game based on it that wasn't a shoot 'em up. But I was dissapointed and bored by this overall. Too much violence is necessary (they really should have made a play-mode for those of us who don't like slaughtering dinosaurs), you're very limited in the things you get to do in the game, you have to focus too much on selling food and appeasing your annoying tourists, you have to treat the dinosaurs like commodities, it doesn't really go anywhere, it gets boring, it loses its charm.

I got this game because I love dinos. I enjoy games like this. I can think and see the life like dinos do what many people believe they do before they went extinct. This game is great for people who love strategie and who are dino freaks.
