Summary

A great all round game that mixes the thought provoking fun of an RPG with the great gameplay and fun of Doom.

The Good

This game has it all, you start out playing the game like it is a RPG but as you progress you will find it also throws in the mix of a 1st person shooter. The game starts just after the T-Rex has pushed the car off the road. You are Dr Alan Grant and you have to find Tim and Lex and lead them to the visitors center all the while fighting of dinosaurs that come at you. The part of the game where you get chased by the T-Rex and have to throw flares in order to distract him is absolutely brilliant. I loved this game and I believe you will too.

The Bad

The movement is a little sluggish and the game can get very annoying especially because the game has no save game option, only passwords that will put u back at the start of the level you were on. This means no matter how close you were to completing the level, if u die, u start right back at the start of the level again, and believe me, some of the levels can take a pretty long time to complete.

The Bottom Line

If your an RPG lover, you will love this game. It has all the qualities of a RPG with a little first person shooter action thrown in, just for a bit of variation. If u like Jurassic Park then i seriously think you should consider buying this game.
