The gameplay is not worth spending the dough for unless you have children that are dinosaur fanatics in your household.
-
Relies a little too heavily on the creativity, imagination and popularity of the licence, without adding much in terms of innovative gameplay. However, for younger gamers, it is a simple and enjoyable game, and a perfectly pleasant walk with the dinosaurs.
-
A perfect game to spend a few hours with but serves little purpose outside of being an entertaining jaunt that is over too quickly.
-
Take decent sound and graphics, and inject unoriginal platforming with a kids license and you have Dinotopia.
-
If it weren't so confusing and repetitive it could have been a sleeper hit. Instead, it's a fossil.

Game InformerBeautiful background details, dull play. [July 2002, p.87]
-
For young dinosaur enthusiasts it would be an appropriate choice as it's based on a peaceful premise and contains no graphic content or gore.
-
A decent-enough platformer with some very nice visuals.
-
Nintendo PowerWith fairly typical side-scrolling action, the game feels all the more grand thanks to its amazing look and magical settings. [May 2002, p.140]
