The reviews of the game reveal a strong affection for its dinosaur-themed park management, particularly from fans of the Jurassic Park series and those who enjoy simulation games. Many players express mixed feelings about the necessity and cost of additional DLCs, acknowledging the added content but critiquing the financial model. However, players are frustrated by persistent bugs such as ranger pathfinding issues and regularly cite the game's performance problems. Overall, while the visual and thematic appeals are strong, the game is tempered by criticisms of its shortcomings and costs associated with fully enjoying its offerings.

    • Common Themes

  • The love for dinosaurs and nostalgia for Jurassic Park movies is a common reason many players enjoy the game.
