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.

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!

Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
Fire Emblem: Radiant DawnRadiant Dawn is a turn-based tactics RPG and a direct sequel, 3 years have passed, to the game "Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance" for the Nintendo GameCube. It features new magic, class upgrades, weapons, and a reworked forging system. The game uses a somewhat upgraded version of the previous engine so the games look similar. You can carry over some data from the previous games save file but only a normal or hard mode file will work because a bug will cause the Wii to freeze if an easy mode save file is on the GameCube memory card.
