Jurassic Park (GB)

In Jurassic Park for Game Boy Color, players assume the role of Dr. Alan Grant, the renowned paleontologist, who finds himself stranded on Isla Nublar after the disastrous park incident. Your primary objective is to survive and escape the island, which is teeming with dangerous dinosaurs.

The gameplay is primarily action-adventure with an isometric (top-down, slightly angled) perspective, allowing players to move freely through various areas of the park, from dense jungles and laboratories to enclosures. You will encounter a variety of different dinosaurs, each with unique behaviors and threat levels. For instance, Velociraptors are fast and aggressive, while Triceratops might charge with their horns. To defend himself, Grant is equipped with a stun gun and a tranquilizer gun, which help incapacitate or slow down dinosaurs without killing them.

Beyond avoiding or dealing with dinosaurs, the game also incorporates puzzle-solving and item-hunting elements. Players need to locate crucial items such as keycards and switches to open doors or activate systems, which in turn unlock pathways to new areas or complete specific objectives. Resource management, like ammunition and health items, is also vital for survival. Exploring the environment, overcoming challenges, and fighting your way to freedom from this perilous park is at the core of the Jurassic Park GBC experience.
