Jurassic Park is one of those films that terrorized summer box offices for months. So many lives became obsessed with dinosaurs after seeing the movie for the first time. (As did my own). I have a feeling that Telltale Games has a similar love for the franchise. The Studios Jurassic Park game is filled with interesting scientific asides, quirky characters, and a number of movie references. The teams love for Jurassic Park is apparent - I just wish love was all you needed...
Jurassic Park: The Game follows Dennis Nedry's can full of Dinosaur Embryos through a series of events that take place after the Films closing credits.The Genetic Research Company, BioSyn, sends a couple of smugglers to Isla Nublar to retrieve the specimens. This simple retrieval mission turns into a crazed nightmare when the team gets attacked by a pack of venom-spewing Dilophosaurus. Sole Survivor, Nima Cruz, eventually meets up with Jurassic Park's chief veterinarian Dr. Gerry Harding - one of the only characters from the film/book to make it into the game (aside from Nedry's bloated dead body). Harding and his daughter got stuck on the island when the storm came and knocked out the power, but their journey to get off the island quickly becomes a fight for survival....
Anyone interested in this game?
