All time i hate how jurassic park / jurassic world games looks like. There is so big potential!
In Dino Island you can make hybrids! Change colours and other things on your dinosaurs! This is the real Jurassic Park / Jurassic World experience as it should be!
This game was a gift to me from my now late grandmother and one of the first management/zoo games I played as a child. I have some of the fondest memories playing this game and the sound of the dinos eating is still stuck in my head haha. Disaster struck when as a child one day I opened to disc drive to find the cd cracked in two, still have not figured out who did it but one day I will. I would love to play it again and have it work on a modern computer as well as something to make me remember fond memories of my lovely grandma again.
This is one of few games that I remember from my early yought. It brought me so much joy as a young boy who like everybody at this age is just in love in dinosours. I'd like to dive into these memories and enjoy this game once again. I love Jurrassic Park games but there is something in these low poly graphics and cross-genetic dinosaurs which often look say the least silly :')
I used to play this game with my mother when i was a child. We'd actually spend a lot of time fine tuning the income of the park and had a blast creating our own dinosaurs. I'd love to get the game up and running again so me and my mom could have some nostalgia. Also i'd love to know if the game was that hard or i was just a stupid kid haha.
I loved cross breeding dinosaurs and making the results box in the arena. It felt just like I was running Jurassic Park lol. Though sometimes we couldn't figure out the tutorial, but now that I'm older I'm sure it'll be, well, child's play. I miss this game <3
I remember going to my cousin and playing this game. I was captivated for hours because the mechanics in the game were very interesting to me. I was never one for dinosaur games, never a big fan of Jurrasic Park, but this game made me love dinosaurs while playing it and I wish I could catch that spark again, all this time later.
The game was most likely pirated there and now I wish I could own it, legally and DRM-free!
I cannot quite remember when or how I got my hands on this gem of a game, but I remember so many great memories with it. Placing my food huts and watching all those smol people gather around to watch the dinosaurs was so fun XD
It was the first tycoon game I played and it'll always have a soft spot in my heart. It'd be great to have it back.
My first ever 'strategy' game, that taught me how to fail at them… While parks of my childhood inevitably failed, the game was still fun with creating hybrids of carnivorous protoceratops, giant coelophysis, or a tyrannosaur with diplodocus neck, as with making unfair tournaments that dinos could sometimes see the finishing line of.
It's a game that was fun to lose, even if the headache from the soundtrack still stuck in my head would make me look like one of those zombies visiting the park. However, with my years of experience in video games, I believe I can figure how to turn it off.
Yass, yass, and yass!
This game was so much fun!
I loved it, when I was a kid! It had great mechanics, such as entertaining guests, experimenting with dinosaurs. It had some crude humors, but hey, in the early 2000 everything had a bit of morbidity. Still they kept it PG 13.
I've spent countless hours on this game, completed the challenges, and stuff. I'm pretty sure the younger generation would love it today too.
This game is only 500MB and gives you unlimited fun! Simple UI and easy gameplay, chilling music and even an educational story! Please add it mighty GOG, it is my childhood!

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Trending Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
