Introduction
In the last few years, many movie companies have been quick to cash in on their big screen franchises, by producing every piece of merchandise that is physically possible. Most of it and possibly about half of all of that merchandise was plain junk. They were quick fixes for their franchise line and there only purpose was to add a little extra dough to their company. Well, in the case of movies turned into video games, the situation has been far worse. Over half of all movie to video game conversions, have been plain garbage. They usually have disgusting graphics and horrible gameplay that is complimented by an overall horrid game design. This is not entirely true for this Theme Park clone but it does have some aspects that make it seem like a cash-in. Jurassic Park 3 was a moderate hit. I say moderate because the other Jurassic Park films made much more than what this film finally grossed. It was in its own sense, a cash-in mainly because it was the first movie in the series to not rely on a novel, and in the end the plot suffers. It may have been an adrenaline pumping action movie, but it failed at being a worthy sequel. Luckily for gamers, this video game has nothing to do with that movie. To tell you the truth it has little to do with Jurassic Park other than sporting dinosaurs and a basic theme. I would be lying if I told you that I did not like that, mainly because I think its better that the game has little to do with the movie versions.

Gameplay
The Graphics are simple, plain and simple. To some people that may be ok but to those people who base their playing on visuals then this game may not be for them. The still pictures are detailed and vibrant and are nice to look at. The main game itself is a little more casual and basic. With simple colors and shades it does enough to make it a worthy game. It does not affect the gamer’s content with the game, it just doesn’t add anything to it. Overall the graphics are simple and basic, that is all a game like this needs.

Story
The gameplay follows all the rules of being a new edition of the Theme Park series. Even though it doesn’t have the license, it still follows very closely in its footsteps.
The game revolves around you, a manager who is in charge of a soon to be massive park filled with long dead creatures. They would be the dinosaurs of course. The story is plain mainly because the game was not tailor made for one; it was made for its involving gameplay. It succeeds on every level of providing an enthralling experience. The only hitch that I can point out is that the control system is complex and the Game Boy Advance just wasn’t made for that much in the way of custom controls. The game can become quite boring after you have made a few parks but it is great fun while it lasts. There is an added set of replay value in the form of finding new dinosaurs but aside from that, its basically fodder for a weekend rental.


Graphics
The sound on the other hand is a little too plain. It suffers from being considered a leftover. The sounds are generic and seem to be reused over and over again. The music is downright plain and it becomes so repetitive it may make you want to turn the sound down. The sound is the worst aspect of the game and becomes a major annoyance. Overall the sound is not worth its weight in time and effort.

Sound
This game is a great weekend rental and should not be missed even if only for a try. The game is deep and is very detailed in mechanics. The graphics are simple and the music is disgusting, but overall most people if only for a little while should play this game.
