Jurassic Park: 5 Best Video Games (And 5 That Sucked)
1. LEGO Jurassic World
TT Fusion will always be victims of amazing first album syndrome (read: Star Wars Lego) and every franchise they build with pixel bricks inevitably gets compared to their first effort. But that is all up for re-evaluation, giving the quality of their latest offering.
Titled 'Lego Jurassic World' to tie in with the movie's summer 2015 release, the game encompasses all four movies in the franchise. Like Lego Marvel before it, it's set in a lushly rendered open-world, with plenty to do before you even get stuck into the story chapters.
As expected, players can take control of a myriad of characters (Superviser Nick... eh?) but, unlike any other JP game, let's you take control of pretty much every dinosaur in the movies, including the ones you quite frankly won't recollect ever seeing. A Corythosaurus, anyone?
What can at first seem overwhelming soon becomes a trophy/achievement hunter's dream, where players actually have to apply some kind of logic to what dinosaur or character is needed to, say, snatch a section of precious amber nestled in the rafters of the visitors centre. Sure, the familiar character tropes are there, with guys that can swing and gals that can scream - yes, TT still seem intent on including that in their games - but when you've got the ability to send a Spinosaurus beak-first through a pile of bricks, who's to quibble?
TT have really hit their groove with LEGO Jurassic World, and in turn created the most complete JP gaming experience to date.
