Download Jurassic Park_Disk1 ROM – Amiga Game

Game Overview

Jurassic Park on the Amiga came out in 1993 from Ocean Software. It was one of those games that tried to capture the movie's tension on home computers, using the hardware to mix different visual styles. You got a sense of the platform's capabilities, with detailed sprites and a split between exploration and action that felt ambitious for the time.

You control Dr. Alan Grant, tasked with rescuing the park's stranded children and restoring power to critical systems. The game shifts between a top-down perspective for navigating the island and a first-person view for shooting dinosaurs with tranquilizer darts or electrified fences. You collect keycards, solve simple environmental puzzles, and avoid or subdue dinosaurs like velociraptors and the T. rex. It moves at a deliberate pace, with careful exploration required, and the difficulty can spike unexpectedly during enemy encounters. Playing it feels tense and methodical, with each new area presenting a fresh challenge.
