Item Description

Most movie games hand you the hero and point you to the right. Jurassic Park on the Genesis puts a choice right on the main menu: guide Dr. Alan Grant across a park that has gone very wrong, or flip the Player option and take control of a velociraptor. That second campaign was a bold idea in 1993, and it is still the first thing people mention about this game.

Grant's quest is the slower, more tactical of the two. His arsenal is built around non-lethal gear, from tranquilizer darts to gas and flash grenades, which means dinosaurs are usually stunned rather than stopped, and the raptors gradually shrug off the darts as the game goes on. He climbs, jumps, rides a raft down a treacherous river and scrounges for med kits, all while the T. rex looms as a threat you would much rather run from than fight. The raptor's campaign flips the tone completely: it is all speed, leaping and slashing, with compsognathus snacks restoring health and park security fighting back with stun guns and eventually rockets.

BlueSky Software, the studio that would later create Vectorman, built something entirely different from Ocean's top-down Super NES adaptation, and it shows in the presentation. The jungles are lush, a red-rock canyon makes a striking contrast, the dinosaurs are smoothly animated, and the soundtrack swaps John Williams for driving, synth-heavy tracks that suit the Genesis sound chip. The adventure is fairly short, with a password system for picking up where you left off, and Grant's side carries a real bite in difficulty, especially on the river stage.

BlueSky followed it with Jurassic Park: Rampage Edition in 1994, but this is the game that introduced the raptor-as-hero idea. Playing it on original hardware brings back the summer of 1993, when dinosaurs were everywhere and the chance to play as one of the film's villains was the coolest thing a cartridge could promise.
