I got this game(which I wanted)for my birthday. I was disappointed. I hate the music, I hate the background, I hate the game. It is frustrating because you always have to change characters and if you mess up one time by jumping off something, you have to start all over again!! I thought it was going to be like the movie, but it is about the farthest from the movie you can get. So if you haven't seen the movie, like changing charcters 59 times, and love starting over 'til you're ready to smash the game, get this game.
Dino-Bore!

I should have known better than to expect greatness from this title, but I bought it anyway. What a lame game! The graphics aren't very good and the sprites are so small you can barely tell them apart. I mean these are suppposed to be dinosaurs and they're the size of ants! And what's with all the monkeys anyway? This game is called dinosaur, but half your team is monkeys! On top of that, the control is really bad too. You have to eat these flowers for power ups by walking over them and even though you swear you walked over it you won't pick it up! I like the idea of having to use different dinos for different tasks but not when I have to travel all over the place looking for a special dot to do so. And not when the tasks are running, climbing, pushing and roaring (!?). Again these are supposed to be dinos, so why can't they all run, push and roar ( I can understand climbing)? Seems to me like they just wanted to cash in on the license.
Disney is putting some really top notch games out for the GBC right now (Alice in Wonderland, Jungle Book, Lion King), but unfortunately this is not one of them. Only get this game if you like to be annoyed.
Pretty good, so far

This is a prelim. review because we just got the game. At first it's a little frustrating because each character has special abilities, so you need the book with you to remember what each of them does. It's a little awkward trying to get the big dinosaurs to maneuver in small areas - like to pick up flowers or get around an obstacle. So far, both my 10-yr old and I (her mom) like it.
Cool Game! :)

This game was the first one that I got for my new Game Boy Color. The first few levels can be a bit frustrating, because you don't have all of the charecters, but once you get past level 5(which shouldn't take long)you'll feel better. I would reccomend this game most to kids at least 10 years old. Why? My sister, who is 8, has a bit of trouble playing.
This game is great for those who love adventure, have an intrest in dinosaurs, or just those who want to have FUN!

A lot more challenging than it looks, not just a little kid's game!
