A couple of years ago, my colleague Tyler reviewed Jurassic World Evolution back when it first came out for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. He wasn?t a fan, though he had high praise for the game?s graphics. Now that the game has arrived on the Switch alongside all its DLC, is it any better?
Yes and no. The bad news about this Switch port is that it?s very, very ugly. Much like Tropico 6 a few months ago, a lot of sacrifices were made in order to get Jurassic World Evolution to run on Nintendo?s system, and that?s apparent on every screen, whether you?re roaming around the grounds of the titular theme park, squinting to make out what type of land you?re looking at, or going through one of the many management screens, also squinting at reading some less-than-crisp font.
There?s also voice acting here — including Dr. Ian Malcolm himself, Jeff Goldblum — which is kind of a mixed bag. One the one hand, it?s pretty neat to hear Goldblum providing his character?s brand of cynical quips. On the other hand, none of the other voic

I don’t think it will surprise too many of you to know that my favorite movie is Jurassic Park. I saw that tour de force at the tender age of 10 with my aunt and that experience has largely guided my life decisions forever after. It’s a shame that no sequels were ever produced! Of course, Jurassic Park is no stranger to the video game realm, and while most of them have disappointing, a few standouts do exist (anyone remember "Trespasser?"). This, dear readers, is perhaps the purest realization of the Jurassic Park concept: building a dinosaur theme park. As somebody who normally gets bored to tears playing city/park management sims, I found Jurassic World: Evolution charming and engaging, thanks in no small part to the subject attractions, which will drive kids out of their minds.
In Evolution, you will eventually manage several distinct parks on five islands in the Muertes Archipelago. Each park has its own challenges, and you won’t be able to access them all right away. You’ll start on Isla Matanceros, and once you prove you can manage a successful park, you’ll get to take on Isla Muerta, and so on. As you unlock new islands, y
Jurassic World Evolution: Complete Edition Switch review
Switch reviews cover the Nintendo Switch version of a game. Jurassic World Evolution was released on PC, PS4, and Xbox One on June 12, 2018, and scored 8/10.
I am going to be frank with you here. I really don’t think synthesising the genome of long-dead creatures the size of two double-decker buses is really a good idea. I have seen the movies and they always seem to end in disaster. Still, the idea of a theme park where real-life dinosaurs are wandering around is an intoxicating prospect, and one that I have been more than happy to get stuck into.
This Switch version comes with the huge boast that it is the “Complete Edition”, meaning that it arrives with not just the base game that is available on PC and consoles already, but complete with all the DLC and content patches. It is largely the same game, but there are some slight compromises made for the Switch version to ensure it runs smoothly, namely a limit of one hundred dinosaurs. One hundred dinosaurs? Sounds like a recipe for disaster!
Jurassic World Evolution: Complete Edition is hilarious. I haven’t belly laughed at a game whether intentio
Review: Jurassic World Evolution: Complete Edition (Nintendo Switch)
Who wouldn’t want the opportunity to run a zoo full of dinosaurs? I signify, assuming that you could direct it in a way that doesn’t turn to hell (a la the Jurassic Park films). I remember being enamoured to a Game Boy Advance title, called Jurassic Park: Park Builder, which, primitive as it was, let you do that. Jurassic World Evolution is the current attempt at that same thing. Given that the Nintendo Switch doesn’t have that many fantastic simulators on it, this thing arrives as something of a breath of fresh air. It’s not perfect, but it’s not bad at all.
The basic process behind Jurassic World Evolution is quite simple: You’ll transmit exploratory teams out to various places across the world to look for DNA for a wide range of dinosaurs. When you’ve got enough DNA to form a complete “picture” of a single dino, you can then produce it, and enable it out into your park. Then you’ve got to build sure that the dino won’t escape, keep it fed and healthy, and then draw visitors (and money) into your park.
All of that is fairly standard stuff for simulator

I don’t know when exactly, but somewhere along the way movie tie-in games stopped being almost universally cheap cash grabs. I mean, sure, some still are, but a lot end up like today’s entry: Jurassic World Evolution: Complete Edition for the Nintendo Switch. Maybe it’s not the most original game on the planet, but it does an excellent job adapting its source material in a genre that maybe isn’t the most natural sell for most licensors. Given the franchise, however, an amusement park management sim isn’t actually much of a stretch. Maybe it’s a tad less suspenseful than the movies, but Jurassic World Evolution never lets that hold it back from being an enjoyable experience.
With This Many Dinosaurs, You’d Think There Would Be More Than Five Deaths
Jurassic World Evolution: Complete Edition was first released on the PC a couple years ago. It tasks players with taking command of the Jurassic Park complexes on the five islands of the Cinco Muertes Archipelago. Why tempt fate by having a park with such a
