    good game mainly for the dinosaurs, animations of each muscle, noise, behavior all this is perfect! I downloaded save 100 just to enjoy the dinos because my interest is to see them live And not create an island like in the Sims

    Erase una vez la increiblemente pequeña nación de los que nos gustan los juegos de management. La mayoría viven agradecidos de lo que les da la vida, juegos mas dificiles que administrar un pais con gráficas del milenio pasado. Pero hay unos pocos entre nosotros que creimos en un milagro. Un juego 3A de gestión. Solo recapitular lo que tuvo que pasar para que el milagro ocurriera. PrimeroErase una vez la increiblemente pequeña nación de los que nos gustan los juegos de management. La mayoría viven agradecidos de lo que les da la vida, juegos mas dificiles que administrar un pais con gráficas del milenio pasado. Pero hay unos pocos entre nosotros que creimos en un milagro. Un juego 3A de gestión. Solo recapitular lo que tuvo que pasar para que el milagro ocurriera. Primero Una franquicia de tamaño jurásico (PUN INTENDED) en su peak. Activo involucramiento no solo de las estrellas de las nuevas películas, sino también los de las antiguas. Pero por sobre todo que Frontier hizo un muy buen juego. Hacer Jurassic Park, pero bien, ese es el trabajo que tenemos entre manos y cala en ese perfecto punto medio que le permite al juego esquivar las dos criticas potencialmente más letales (1- Es su juego de zoo en una jurassic park skin. 2- Es un Jurassic Park cash grab). El juego es robusto, de partida hacer que esta vez jurassic park salga bien es mas inspirador que manejar un zoo, luego tienes sistemas para cuidar tanto dinosaurios como visitantes. El entorno como diria iam malcom tiende al caos, cuando ya te lo aprendes todo es facil y el juego hace lo que puede por llevarte de la mano, pero perfectamente puede darse que se te pase algo y pierdas en la campaña.
    Es ese momento lo más hermoso de este juego, como pasa de la táctica a la estrategia y como la planificación astuta y cuidadosa hace que las 5 estrellas sean pan comido o el mismisimo infierno sobre la tierra en caso de tomar decisiones equivocadas en la construcción del parque.
    Gráficos son la leche, la hostia, la tierra prometida, cierto que palidecen si los comparamos con un gears of war, pero nosotros los de gestion solemos jugar juegos con motores gráficos del milenio pasado. Los dinosaurios se ven bastante vivos por decirlo de alguna forma.
    La banda es la de la película. Fabulosa.
    Recomiendo el juego categoricamente.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра мне понравилась, но есть минусы
    Но сначала плюсы
    1.Сюжет
    В сюжете нам дают совершенно новых персонажей, но есть и старые
    Когда ты заходишь на остров в первый раз, с ним что-то случилось
    Как на Исла-Муэрте
    Персонажи есть и серьёзные, и весёлые и жадные, например Кабот Финч, любит деньги и произносит иногда юмористичесике фразы
    2.Графика и оптимизация
    У меня видюха GT 1030 и я играю в 40 fps на низко-средних в 1080p, а могло быть хуже если не оптимизация
    3. Динозавры
    Их тут много!
    Для каждого нужен подходящий загон и условия
    Интересно наблюдать за их поведением
    Минусы
    1.Автомтизм
    Его в игре нет, это минус, но во второй части это исправили!
    2.Баги
    В основном они не критичные, даже забавные, но иногда подбешивают
    Я рекомендую эту игру!!!    … Expand

    It is a good game but having to buy accessories to make the game better seems silly to me when I buy a game I want to have it complete not having to buy accessories that in total are 30 dollars more in total are 90 80 dollars with that I buy a game better than this I do not recommend it if you care to have a lot of dinosaurs if you do not mind it is a good recommended game

    This Game brings a lot of Nostalgia. The Developers improved the game with various updates and patches. Graphics looks awesome but they're really performance hungry. Dinosaur Models look very similar to their movie-counterparts.

    В игре вам дают создать свой собственный огромный парк, и населить его разными динозаврами. В игре очень детализировано прорисованы динозавры. Управление в игре очень простое даже человек никогда не игравший в игры жанра стратегии в реальном времени легко освоится.

    I received the game as a Gift and didn't expect much. I have never even seen a JP movie before.. But I like Sim/Management Games and Dinosaurs... To my surprise, the game is quite fun. (58hrs) It's a Good Game.. Not Great but Good. If you like Sim/Management, I think you will like it.. I own it on two different platforms...

    That's what i wanna see! As a dino lover, i habe to love this game. It has amazing graphics, nice music, and it offers a little challenge to handle all dinos with their specific requirements. Of course it could be better, it may get a little boring after a while, but that is compensated with a variety of gamemodes and diffuculties.

    I never thought a sim game could be this interesting, the visuals are very good looking and the sound design is also pleasing. The gameplay can drone a bit, but after waiting the payoff is definitely worth the wait most of the time, and there are other things to do while waiting as well.

    A fun, relaxing game, faithful to the movie franchise. Interesting concept and very good technical and graphical execution. Dinosaurs look great, you can drive the jeeps, pilot helicopters or ride a gyrosphere through your self designed dinosaur park. Great fun to hear the movie characters (especially Ian Malcolm) comment on your achievements.

    Unfortunate they skipped some types of dinosaurs like flying ones or sea types.

    Resource Management game,
    Build a Park, maintain it, keep customers happy, build atractions and such...
    All in all? a good time.

    ...

    Then Dinossaur happen.
    THEN IT BECOMES AWESOME,
    BUILD A PARK, MAINTAIN IT, KEEP CUSTOMERS HAPPY, BUILD ATRACTIONS AND BREED DINOS!
    Then when you unlock the Sandbox mode, re-create the movies with some Violently-Awesome results!

    ALL IN ALL? A GREAT TIME!

    When I play a game I do so as an achievement hunter. I am always looking for that Platinum Trophy and because of that I rate games not only on the game but on the enjoyment I get out of getting 100% completion in terms of achievements.

    After reading several reviews on this game giving it a negative score I had my doubts. After playing this game I realize all those negative reviews are    When I play a game I do so as an achievement hunter. I am always looking for that Platinum Trophy and because of that I rate games not only on the game but on the enjoyment I get out of getting 100% completion in terms of achievements.

    After reading several reviews on this game giving it a negative score I had my doubts. After playing this game I realize all those negative reviews are coming from those who either played the game for 5 minutes, don't like dinosaurs, or don't like park sims. I have unlocked a few of the islands now, still a few more to go and I have to say this game is a time sink of enjoyment. I started playing and next time I looked at a clock 5 hours had passed without me even realizing it. Current score 10/10.

    The graphics in the game are great, animations of the dinosaurs are amazing. Some reviews are saying that the game animations are repetitive, well ya the developers cannot include 100 animations per one dinosaur, sorry all! I spent more time managing my park and creating dinosaurs then watching their animations. What I have had time to look at so far is eating, drinking, running walking, playing and talking with fellow herd members, hunting etc. There are plenty of animations to make it feel real to me. The landscape and buildings also look crisp and clean. Current score 10/10.

    Building the park and park management will take up most of your time and fulfilling quests given to you by your peers (different divisions in the park) from digging up fossils to doing research, restocking food, doing repairs, medicating dinos, selling dinos, discarding dead dinos and placing buildings for your park and entertaining guests. When building your park the customization is limited, you cannot put benches, or light posts or all the itty bitty things. For me however I find that level of customization difficult and was why I could not get into a game like planet coaster. Yes Frontier made both games. The customization comes in the form of gene splicing your dinos and adding new genomes. The management aspect of this game was perfect for me. Current score 10/10.

    Sound and speech was great, from cast members of the Jurassic Park films making a return to add their voice to the great T-Rex and that amazing roar. Dinos in herds also make noises to each other and people scream when being chased by escaped dinosaurs. Current score 10/10.

    Some reviews I read especially from well known critics shocked me, especially one that said the dinos were constantly breaking fences and escaping and it was just a rinse and repeat cycle. I have never had a dinosaur escape except by a quest given by peers to catch it. When you select any dinosaur in it enclosure it is basically like a sim, make sure all its needs are met and it will be happy as a clam. Some dinos like forests, others like none, some like meat, others like plants. Some like huge herds, others want to be solitary, all want a source of water which is just obvious. To the ones who wrote the review of escaped dinosaurs you have to play the game longer then 5 minutes and select a dino to see they have needs that have to be met. In a normal park sim you focus on your customer needs, where here you focus on the dino needs. If a dino is happy your guests are happy and the money will come rolling in. There is a small aspect of guest happiness, just make sure they have places to eat, sleep, shop, and view the dinos. Current score 10/10.

    I really have nothing bad to say about this game and in terms of an achievement hunter all can be achieved by simply playing the game and doing the tasks associated with it. Nothing difficult here or that will make you pull your hair out. No save scumming needed! I Highly endorse this park. Current score 10/10.

    Pros: Everything, if you want to sit back relax and make some dinosaurs then this game is for you.

    Cons: I have found no issues but remember this game is not a hardcore customization park sim, if that is what you want you will not find it here.    … Expand

I admit, JWE has a lot of chance & spot to improve its gameplay deepthness on its sequel (if any). so far, im so satisfied with the current game form (consider there is no other game which offer similiar magnificence ancient creature tycoon like JWE! good work!

    this 10/10 review is nothing but to raise a change of frontier to make a game sequel (well, if any),
    i really appreciate & so glad that this game has been made. frontier has a lot of chance to improve & it can be applied on the JWE's sequel! but at least the current game foundation has been strong entertaining enough (current JWE).

    several things that i think should be & can be improved was :
    1. there is no access & any additional features for all guest related building, what we can do is only build it (or demolish it to earn some money) & see it attract the visitors (visitors come & by), thats all. well at least i expect we can see the guest related building door opens when the visitors come by, but this is not (visitors come through a passive doors). very lack of depthness,

    well you can clearly see 2 things
    a. frontier doesnt concern on those detail so deep (the whole game graphic is the higher target)
    b. frontier has lack of time on thinking about the building operational details

    2. We have no acces to see how viewing vents looks like. in JPOG, we can click the viewing vent & see how we can view the dinos as if we are the visitors, its beautiful & show how decent our viewing vent as a connector of the visitors to see the dinos.

    Same with the transportation train, it would be so new & beautiful if we can see how it looks like from the inside of the train while its moving around the park,

    well im so sad that this kind of basic things is lack on the game,
    please, you build a viewing facility but know nothing how it looks like, i mean, how is my dinos looks like from that viewing vent, i dont know. but i build it & pretending that view has been satisfying enough for the visitors.

    3. i bet a lot of JPOG fans think about this. well on its high end jurassic world game version, we hope there will be an aerial & aquatic dinos (alongside with its related park facility). but yeah, it havent happened yet. seems like frontier cannot release a bigger effort for it (i dont know why). if there is, it would be fantastic (since it might be the 1st game that consider about the aerial & aquatic dinos).

    well it just my big dream,
    at least so far JWE has offer remarkable overhaul on the JP's tycoon simulator game.

    while playing this game, i feel my dream on seeing a new model of a JPOG's game has been come true. but at the same time, JWE's still left some missing things which make me keep dreaming about it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For this game I would rate 10/10 because it has great graphics, a wide variety of dinosaurs and plenty of real world scenarios. This game is a park management sim. It is not an action packed game. But it does keep you on your toes. You have to keep the dinosaurs happy, otherwise they will want to get out. You have to keep the guests happy, that is where you get your money. And most important, you have to keep the divisions of the park happy or they will start sabotaging your park. This game has enough content that after playing for almost a month with multiple hours a day, I still have not built a park on every island or unlocked every dinosaur. There can be many set backs like hurricanes and tornadoes that damage buildings or shut down the power. You have to stay on top of everything. My favorite mechanic is the expeditions. I like the surprise of fossils i have uncovered. I love to multitask so this game is perfect for me and others who like a game that they have to do multiple things at once. But this is not an action packed shooter, other than when you have to tranquilize an animal, so if you like action packed games, this may not be for you.… Expand

    While the game falls a little bit short in a few aspects as of now, mainly due to the release of the Jurassic World film that rushed the developers with making this project, nothing in this title is game breaking by any means.
    It has no bugs, at all. My playthrough on all islands was a very calm and pleasant experience and I enjoyed every bit of it making my own dinosaur paradise.
    Now I'm onto creating it in sandbox mode and having a great time.
    Fallen Kingdom DLC with new dinosaurs is already being released today, for free. If the fanbase will want it, and it wants it, aquatic and flying creatures will be a thing added in the future among other features.    … Expand

    Jurassic World Evolution is a good game, but some of its elements are painfully unfinished. If you really want to build your dinosaur park, do not look any further, however, the game should definitely be a bit cheaper. [Issue#287]

    Jurassic World Evolution has its downs (e.g. when it gives you a task you are simply unable to carry out at that moment) but its ups are undeniable. The game manages to reconcile tycoon’s natural depth with accessibility and makes a great, complex use of the license. And it has Jeff Goldblum. Oh, and raptors. Damn those *#&%@ raptors! How do they manage to escape every time? Well, I guess “life, uh... finds a way”. [08/2018, p.56]

    You’d think that in a zoo, there would be a team that handles healing of animals on its own (at worst – after getting chewed out via intercom). But in Jurassic World Evolution, director has to personally oversee that process, as well as numerous other tasks. [Issue#232, p.62]
