The Lost World: Jurassic Park

The Lost World: Jurassic Park

The Lost World: Jurassic Park is an action-adventure video game developed by Appaloosa Interactive and published by Sega for the Sega Genesis. It is based on the film of the same name, which in turn is based on the novel by Michael Crichton. Unlike previous Jurassic Park games for the Genesis, the game offers a bird's-eye view, similar to Jurassic Park on the Super NES. The player takes on the role of an unnamed character who must capture dinosaurs on Isla Sorna while preventing rival hunters from transporting dinosaurs to the mainland. The game consists of nineteen missions spread across four sections of the island, referred to as Sites One through Four. At the end of each site, boss levels must be played to advance to the next site. A second player can assist in the role of Ian Malcolm in co-op mode, or both players can compete against each other in competitive mode. Weapons such as tasers, stun guns, shotguns, and grenades can be used against hunters and dinosaurs. Sometimes the player can control vehicles such as an SUV and a hovercraft.

Story

The Lost World: Jurassic Park ignores the plot of the movie, although some of its dinosaurs appear in it and it is set on "Site B", an island also known as Isla Sorna, which is used as a dinosaur breeding facility by InGen. The plot varies with each character struggling to survive in escalating chaos on the island, which is populated by over 20 species of dinosaurs.
