SWITCH LEGO JURASSIC WORLD REVIEW SERIES

Having audio from a movie with other things going on or in a different setting does not translate well as audio in another format. The dialogue is mostly sound clips from the movies, which was fun to hear those classic lines by the original cast, but most of the time it felt way out of place. The sound however was one of my biggest complaints, especially in the first three games following Jurassic Park, The Lost World, and Jurassic Park III. Everything looks crisp and nice, and the rain effects in the first game are really awesome to play through. Also, certain graphics outside of the cutscenes have had an overhaul from previous games. It was an excellent way to bond with my child (2 years old) and have him experience a franchise that changed my life, while cutting out the inappropriate content. Also, any more adult oriented material has been changed to be completely kid friendly, which was great for someone like me. Everything is Legofied and it makes for some great nostalgic moments with some new laughs on added. They stay very close to mimicking clips of the actual films but with great humor and wit thrown in.

The cutscenes, graphically, are artfully crafted. The addition of playing as the dinosaurs not only helped break up some of the monotony of the repeating puzzles but also felt so well planned and refreshing, easily the most enjoyable mechanic to any Lego game in recent years. This was a major contrast to the bigger dinos like the triceratops that felt heavy and strong, using force to get through objects and progress. They can pounce and even build and figure out puzzles like humans. Playing a velociraptor was unique because of their intelligence.

They are fantastically created and each dinosaur really feels grounded and fun to play. The biggest change to the game from previous installments is the ability to play as a dinosaur. Special characters also have different skills, like jumping higher, digging through dino poop, and growing plants, that help with the games relatively easy puzzles. That is one of the biggest downfalls of the game. The are also miniature puzzles throughout, like finding food for a sick dinosaur, that seem to repeat throughout the game and by the end it has a feeling of been there and done that gameplay-wise. Most of the game revolves around breaking items and rebuilding to continue your progress.

The newest addition to the Lego series does not add much to its basic formula.

Although this I felt was actually a nice touch, for me there was no resisting playing the full game in order due to my love for the first two movies. This is most likely due to the co-release with the movie Jurassic World and how many people might want to jump straight into the newest installment. Unlike other recent franchises that have been given the Lego treatment, you do not have to beat the games in chronological order following the movies. From the raptors in the kitchen scene, to the cliff hanging jeep, and the introduction of the first genetically created dinosaur, all the major and iconic scenes are there. This game was more than a take on a franchise, but rather a way to tell the stories from beginning, to the original sequels, right up to Jurassic World’s recent debut. The moment Jurassic Park’s theme song started I was instantly back in 1993 and nostalgia wrapped around me like a warm fuzzy blanket. Lego Jurassic World is a love letter to fans of the iconic film franchise.
