Replay – Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis
Jurassic World Evolution, a game where you build your own Jurassic Park, was announced recently which prompted us to revisit the original Jurassic Park builder, Operation Genesis.
It had its drawbacks and limitations, but it was also a game where you could build a zoo, fill it with dinosaurs, delete all the fences, and watch the park-goers run in fear (to the nearest flat hamburger stand). Andrew Reiner, the voice of Leo Vader, and I are joined by the rare Replay attendee and noted Jurassic Park super fan, Ben Hanson. He knows a thing or two about building Jurassic Parks, and is constantly in competition with Reiner over who appreciates dinosaurs more.
