Summary: Way Better than Zoo Tychoon
Review: 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.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent dinosaurs! Much like the movie! Worth the money!
Review: 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.

Summary: Great Dinosaur Game
Review: I just got to play this game at my friends house yesterday because I bought it but my computer wasn't up to the requirements. This game is really fun. We beat the first mission, which is a photo taking journey through a Jurassic Park. An allosaurus charged our car; which provided some nice photos. In the second mission you have to shoot and kill a whole bunch of rampaging dinos; really hard. I steered the chooper while my freind shot, it was really fun. The dinosaurs were really detailed, and as you shot them you could see blood spattering off. You also ahve to shoot all these little raptors running and jumping all over the place. One even started to climb one of the fences, but we got him.
Next we tried playing a free from game. I didn't get to play for long but it was really fun. the interface is sorta clunky but it would be really easy to get used to. Just watching my little tiny dinos run around in tneir cage was fun. All the dinosaurs are highly detailed and interact with each other ver well. Graphics are great also. The teen rating isn't all that bad is you are thinking about getting it for a kid. Just a little bit of blood here and there.
If you like park building games this is great, it does not have all the options like Zoo Tycoon though. The graphics are crisp and everything else is great. I highly reccomend this game

Summary: Something Has Survived
Review: I Love JPark and I Love this Game Everyone who likes JPark this is a must Have!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This Game Rocks!
Review: I really had alot of fun playing this game! It has three sections to play in, 4 if you include the secret site b where you get to just create dinos instead of building a park. You get to take pictures on safaris and fly a helicopter saving the visitors on the main games. I really recomend this game if you enjoyed the movie and there isn't any blood that I can see so it is great for about 9 and up.
HOPE YOU LIKE IT!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Build Your Own Dino Park
Review: I'd actually give this game a 4.5, but you know the rounding rule. Anyway, the graphics are pretty good and the dinos are cool, but they don't give you that much choice for buildings in the park. Other than that, I'd say this game is pretty good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Most Frightening, I Mean, Ultimate Theme Park
Review: I've played Jurassic Park Operation Genesis where you have to build a 5-star dinosaur park & grow dinosaurs. The PS version only allows you to unlock 3 sites to dig but the PC version allows 4 or 5. I like creating but the game can be annoying with all the emails coming through every 5 seconds to report a problem. I tried turning down the sound so I couldn't hear the urgent messages but if you turn down the sound, something bad could be happening in your park (like a T-Rex becomng enraged & breaking the fence to have your visitors for a mid-morning snack). You need to send your rangers over (or you can fly the copter yourself) to sedate the dinosaur. What a theme park - all your canivores are drugged up most of the time. I don't like fences. Put up Avoidance Beams which emits an electrical sound that repels dinosaurs but found out these beams run on batteries that have to charge so when they are off & charging, that's when the dinosaurs get through. Twice I was fired for poor management. Ingen doesn't like it when you run the park into the ground (lost track of how much money I was spending) and they don't like it when your visitors are being killed by Tornadoes (supposed to build Visitor Shelters to protect your visitors) or dinosaurs eating them (supposed to build fences to protect the visitors-but a high security fence makes it hard to view the dinosaurs). Hey you can't please everybody. Fun game and great learning tool also. Teaches about the different dinosaurs of each period which could spark a child's curiousity to find out further information about dinosaurs. No bones about it - Jurassic Park Operation Genesis is a great game.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Dinosaur Park Sim
Review: I've seen other "Dinosaur Park" Sims on the market, but this is certainly the original as well as the clear best.

Game play is fun and incredibly addicting. The graphics are wonderful and the dinosaurs themselves are exquisitely animated. The Brachiosaurs' bellies shake as the walk and the different species all have different AI's and behaviors.

The different "employees" of your park (such as Dr. Grant, Dr. Sattler and Dr. Wu and etc.) can sometimes be a little annoying in their insistence. And my only real complaint is that you can't "fire" dig teams, so once you find all the genetic material you need they just wander aimlessly. But that's just nit-picky and is a result of my having played it so much.

I've had this game awhile and have built many a park but I still find it fun each time.
