Its Fine. Johnzach23
Tie-in-video games are as awesome as the movie (EX: Prince Caspian, Star Wars III), but lets face it. My favorite movie of all time is messed up by its video game, but it was challenging. At least I quenched my thirst of playing the game, even if its the Game boy Color v.
(Graphics)The game is played by pixels. But, I like how they made the characters in the gallery look like them from the movie. But overall, the graphics are bland.(Sound)Sometimes, there are screeching sounds in the game, and it bothers me. ALOT. It irritates my ears. ALOT(Addictiveness)I wouldn't say I'm an addict to this game.The game play and controls are kind of difficult, the story is... well.... its a tie-in-video game-to-the-original-movie right?(Story)Find your friends, that is all! The game is just a tie-in to the movie. But Video Game or Movie, I like the story.(Depth)The game is hard, the controls are harder, and to beat the game is adequate.(Difficulty)ITS SO HARD! I couldn't even complete he level of "Escape the Raptors" or whatever you call it, I got stuck there.

Not worth it! Singelli
There didn't seem much to do in this game. It was difficult to figure out how things worked, and your character's icon had to be placed just so in order to pick items up or move them around. Also, it was nearly impossible (for me at least) to figure out how to swap characters so that I could use their abilities. I ended up pressing a bunch of buttons and moving my current character around incessantly in order to get that function of the game to work properly.
The game also didn't have much of a story: You find your 'dinosaur friends' so that you can use their abilities to move around the game map, which was small and contained little choice as to which directions to take.
Finally, I think one of my characters died, and from what I could tell, there was no way to get that character back. I tried a few things, none of which worked.
It could very possibly be considered that I didn't play the game long enough. Maybe it did get exciting or develop a plot, or suddenly adopt larger maps. However, the frustration I experienced trying to figure out the controls wasn't worth finding out if the game got better.
Graphics (3):The graphics in this game were quite cheesy. The drawings were not well done and pretty generic shapes, lending to the idea that each character could have been any number of dinosaurse. Also, there were several different... monkies? The only difference between them was that they were different colors, and on top of that, the colors were nearly identical! It was therefore almost impossible to tell which monkey I was playing as. Even the screen for choosing characters made it difficult to discern which character was which.
The background and scenery were VERY dull and drab. Again, too many similar colors were used, and it seemed like there were only four of them: dark green, light green, brown for logs, and red dots for flowers. It looked as though a third grader could have drawn a map and colored it in, so lacking in details was it.
Addictiveness (1):If I could, I'd honestly rate this one a -1000. It was the worst game I've ever played, and I'm surprised I kept trying to figure it out as long as I did. There wasn't much to discern the story, nor the controls or goal of the game. There was no leveling or battling either that I could tell. Besides that, the map was ridiculously simple and basically involved your characters following a short pre-determined paths with only a few stray trails. And even those options ended very quickly, rendering them completely pointless.
Story (1):You play a dinosaur and your dinosaur friends are lost, so you must find them. That's about all I got from the game. Boring, unoriginal, and unattractive.
Depth (2):The only reason I gave this any points at all is because you do have to choose which characters to use, to perform certain tasks. For example, one character can move logs, while one can hop across ravines. The levels don't seem to get much more difficult than that, and the story plot never deepens or changes, from what I managed to force myself through.
Difficulty (9):This game was VERY irritating to try and figure out. There were no instructions about controls, and since the characters could do very little anyways, it's ridiculous that it's SO hard to figure out how to perform those tasks. For example, the character that can move logs has to be in JUST the right position and you have to press the button at JUST the right time in order to get him to roll the log over. The character that jumps ravines faced the same issue. The game itself was simply and not diffictult to play at all in concept.
