Valuable items such as silver, gold, or opal are also discovered infrequently by the dig team(s), and can be sold for profit.Īttractions help make the park popular, and increase its rating power and income when correctly configured. There are 6 classifications on the quality of a dig site, ranging from "excellent" to "exhausted." It is still possible to find fossils and amber at sites that have been exhausted, although they are often of low quality with little DNA to provide. The chance of finding fossils depends on the quality of the site. Fossils of some dinosaurs, such as Brachiosaurus, can be found in more than one dig site. Each dig site contains fossils from three particular dinosaurs. Additional dig teams can be purchased later in the game. To obtain fossils and amber, the player must send a fossil-hunting team to dig in one of nine dig sites around the world. Higher quality specimens will yield more DNA. To obtain a dinosaur's DNA, the player must extract it through fossils or amber. The higher the percentage of DNA, the longer that dinosaur will live, unless it dies by means other than natural causes, such as malnutrition or being attacked by another dinosaur. To create a dinosaur, fifty percent (50%) of the particular dinosaur's DNA is needed. Likewise, carnivores have an innate desire to hunt other dinosaurs, so even a constant stream of livestock will not keep them happy. However, herbivores become unhappy if they don't have enough trees around them or enough nearby dinosaurs to socialize with.
It is necessary to build feeding stations where herbivores can get bales of plant feed, while carnivores are fed live cows or goats. Gameplay functions are very similar to the SimCity and Tycoon game models. The player's main objective is to create a theme park/zoo featuring dinosaurs, make it popular, and make it safe with a 5-star rating. According to Metacritic, the Windows and Xbox versions received "Mixed or average" reviews, while the PlayStation 2 version received "Generally favorable" reviews. Ultimately, the game was released in North America and the PAL region in March 2003, followed by a Japanese release later that year. The game was announced in February 2002, with its release initially scheduled for late 2002.
The game's primary goal is to construct a five-star rated dinosaur theme park named Jurassic Park on custom-generated islands by hatching dinosaurs, building attractions, keeping visitors entertained, and ensuring the park's safety.ĭevelopment began in 2001, and lasted 22 months. It was released for Windows, Xbox, and PlayStation 2. Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis is a construction and management simulation video game based on the Jurassic Park series developed by Blue Tongue Entertainment and co-published by Vivendi Universal Games under their Universal Interactive subsidiary and Konami.
