Kids will definitely enjoy building their own park and creating their own mutated dinosaurs down to the last detail and Dino Island allows them to do it all.
-
Graphical scalability and an intuitive interface are heavily outweighed by poor graphics and sound, uninspired gameplay, and a lack of scientific information about the dinosaurs you are exploiting.
-
Computer Gaming WorldHas the potential to be a truly unique sim, but it's got the blocky aesthetics of an edutainment title, yet is too complex for junior to play on his own. [Sept 2002, p.85]
-
Really, I’ve reviewed some bad games in my time, but Dino Island is the first that was completely and seemingly intentionally bad.
-
Cheat Code CentralThe only thing this game has going for it is the novelty of creating your own hybrids of dinosaurs.
-
In short, this game sucks, don't buy it for yourself or anyone you love.
-
Although there are some enjoyable aspects here, there are too many disappointments weighing down the whole endeavour.
