Mechanics
In the PC, PS4 and XONE release of Jurassic World: Evolution, a player assumes the role of a manager of an amusement park and is tasked with creating and exhibiting new species of the reptiles as well as taking care of the entire park’s infrastructure and a number of additional attractions – like a gift shop. Also important is the aspect of visitors’ security – during the game, one has to pay attention to the reptiles within the park, as they can escape their enclosures and pose a serious threat to all the humans in the vicinity. As all of the mentioned above activities generate costs, the actions a player takes have to be aimed at increasing the venture’s profitability.
All the acquired financial resources can be invested in the development of the park – in order to keep the visitors interested, it is necessary to create new species of the prehistoric reptiles and erect suitable enclosures for them.
