    Yes, graphicaly kind of a disapointment, the fact is that this game outlived 2 PC's and is being played by my daugter girl for 4 years in a row.

    The game has it all. Although the game can be complex, it never gets too tough to understand, even for the juniors. The graphics for the visitors are a little poor, but the dinosaur graphics are great. The controls are easy in use, although the mouse sensitivity is a little too high and cant be adjusted. This game is getting my full votes!

    It's a Jurassic Park game except your programmer doesn't shut off fences. I played this game over the span of 8 years and never got bored of it. Big bad IGN and... 'Game Over Online'? Never heard of it. Anyway, stop being high and mighty. Especially IGN, yuck.

    Really, I’ve reviewed some bad games in my time, but Dino Island is the first that was completely and seemingly intentionally bad.

    The only thing this game has going for it is the novelty of creating your own hybrids of dinosaurs.
  3. Gamer's Pulse

    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.
