The Lost World Jurassic Park for Game Boy

Australia, 1997

Videogame

Based on the movie of the same name, The Lost World: Jurassic Park is set on Isla Sorna, also known as “Site B”, where dinosaurs were created to populate the original park. As an agent for InGen, the player must recover eggs, DNA and key information on the cloning process before BioSyn, a rival company, gets their hands on it. Gameplay consists of running, jumping and climbing through the buildings, jungles and caves of the island. Getting in the player’s way are BioSyn thugs and a variety of dinosaurs, such as Pterodactyl, Triceratops and the eponymous Tyrannosaurus Rex. The player can defend himself by using kicks, punches and weapons, as well as ammo and health power-ups.
