   Jurassic World Evolution is an amazing tycoon style game which allows you to build and run your own dinosaur park. This game can’t be comparedJurassic World Evolution is an amazing tycoon style game which allows you to build and run your own dinosaur park. This game can’t be compared with other tycoon games, except Jurassic Park Genesis, as it includes weather difficulties and the threat of dinosaurs breaking free when agitated. This game gives a good overview of the Jurassic film series as making a dinosaur park is a very big task and never goes the way you want it to go.
   
   I never personally played Jurassic Park Genesis, but Jurassic World Evolution out did it with the amazing graphics and the amount of realism that is put into a dinosaur park (but then again Jurassic Park Genesis release date was 2003 so it is much older compare to the Jurassic World Evolution)
   
   The game always needs thoughtful thinking and eliminating obstructions along the way. It really gets you thinking what way is the more efficient but also successful towards the visitors.
   
   Frontier Developments have made or took part in the make of a few tycoon games, one being the Zoo Tycoon, but never did they make a dinosaur park tycoon, and they did an amazing job.
   
   The story behind it is very simple and nothing too complicated if you have seen all the Jurassic Parks and Worlds. You are requested to build functional parks throughout the four islands you are given, with money income coming in. You are given some basic starts on islands, or you must figure out how to go from negative profit back into the positive. As you progress with your star rating of your island, you can unlock further islands and unlock dinosaurs.
   
   The tutorial is very clear and shows you where everything is and how everything works so you can get into the game very quickly. There are shortcuts to most functions to make everything faster and easier. The more you play, the quicker you get with management and multitasking in the game.
   
   The game wants you to make a successful park, and what really is the most complex part is the electrical system which you must make efficient for everything requiring electricity work. I personally don’t find this too much of a problem to sort out, but I have seen some people struggle with it. A nice touch of failing and successful incubations really mimics the real life as not always everything works out as planned and fail. You must have 50% genome to start incubating a new breed of dinosaur, but it also means that there is 50% chance of failure in the incubation. As you add genetic modifications onto a specific breed, the chances of success falls depending on the modification. It is annoying, especially when an expensive breed fails near the beginning of the game while you still try to make a sustainable income, but it does give the reality problems and issues that there are when genetically modifying a specie.
   
   Everything in the game costs money such as, fixing fences, tranquilizing, feeding, removing/adding trees and water, and all other facilities and viewing galleries. This game really makes you think what is more important and where the money should go to make your park more successful.
   
   The graphics are amazing, and the dinosaurs are very detailed which give you the feeling of bringing them back to life and giving them another chance to roam the Earth. There is the small disappointed of similar sized dinosaurs having the same animation, such as the medium carnivores and relative herbivores. However, some have their own unique animations.
   
   There isn’t much character development because of this being a strategy and management style game but you get a few characters from the films, such as Owen, Clair, Ian and Doctor Henry. The three categories, Security, Entertainment and Science, gives you three personalities which might make you favour one more than the other.
   
   The sound track in the background really puts you in the Jurassic World mood. The sound effects of roars, hitting, crunching and vehicles are very good too, nearly all dinosaurs with their unique roars and sounds.
   
   The game isn’t cheap, but it does give you a lot of equipment, facilities and dinosaurs to make our own park and you don’t have to spend any more money on it. There is an option of spending £10 on five extra dinosaurs, but it isn’t a must because you aren’t missing out on much to be honest. In my opinion, I think for the price that is sells for, it is worth the money.… Expand

   The Jurassic Park franchise that I admire and without a doubt the film’s are up there with some of favourite films of all time. BusinessThe Jurassic Park franchise that I admire and without a doubt the film’s are up there with some of favourite films of all time. Business management games is also a genre as well so as you can imagine I was looking forward to Jurassic World Evolution quite a bit and thankfully these two very different items work together in perfect harmony and to say I’m addicted to this game is a understatement. The good thing is that I can see myself being addicted to this game for some time to come because in terms of content the game has huge amount for you to sink your teeth into and the best thing is that the content that’s available to you has a decent amount of variety present so boredom won’t be happening anytime soon. The gameplay has a lot of attention to detail and the management aspect of the game has been done to perfection. In fact each different mechanic in the game has been done to perfection and when they all combine together the fun factor is off the charts. You will however have to get used to the difficulty curve in the game because at times it can cause you a few problems, but as you progress and get used to certain methods the difficulty curve does thankfully start to ease a little bit. The game also helps you get used to the difficulty curve quite a bit as well and they do this by including an array of options for you to use. You can literally manage everything in this game and each option plays an important part in the running of your park so the immersion levels are really high throughout your time with the game. They also do a very good job of keeping things simple as well and not once did I feel overwhelmed which is rare in a game of this ilk. I never once got bored doing the various tasks in the game thanks to the excellent way they’ve used the Jurrasic Park franchise. I would however have liked a fast forward option because doing certain tasks can take a while which means progression is a little on the slow side. Thankfully though I was easily able to look past this because the presentation side of the game makes you forget about the slow pace of completing certain tasks. Visually the dinosaurs look great and you can tell that a lot of thought and effort has gone into key areas. I was also impressed with the sound design in the game as well and when both the visuals and sound design combine together they create a true Jurassic Park feel. At the end of the day as far as management sim’s go Jurassic World Evolution is a fantastic addition to the genre. It has a huge amount of depth and content for you to get to grips with and the best thing is that this content and depth never gets boring and remains fun for many hours.… Expand
