It is the first installment in the Dino Crisis series and was developed by the same team behind Capcom's Resident Evil series, including director Shinji Mikami. Finding it overrun with dinosaurs, Regina must fight through the facility to discover its secrets and escape alive with her team.

The Story Behind Dino Crisis

The protection can be bypassed disabling the mod-chip or using action-replay codes. It is a spiritual successor to Mikami's popular Resident Evil series, which Mikami and his team wanted to move away from the fantasy elements of and make something more real. The team had to forego a jungle scene because of this issue.

The number of dinosaurs in the North American version was increased from the Japanese version, although the number of species remained the same. Mikami described Resident Evil as "horror in the fun house" and Dino Crisis as more visceral horror akin to riding a roller coaster. It was made to have more consistent fright, with the dinosaurs being more intelligent, quick, and able to chase the player room-to-room.

How Dino Crisis Plays

Regina can walk, run, turn, backpedal, push and climb objects, and perform a 180-degree turn. Med Paks can be used to heal Regina's health. Hemostats can be used to stop bleeding injuries.

Dino Crisis features survival horror gameplay that is very similar to Capcom's early Resident Evil titles. These items can be stored in "emergency boxes", which need be unlocked with special items called "plugs" before they are usable. Enemies can knock Regina's weapon out of her hand, at which point she'll have to retrieve it.

Why Players Still Load It Up

The protagonist of Dino Crisis, Regina, has been featured as a playable character in the tactical role-playing game Namco x Capcom for the PlayStation 2. Critics generally praised the action and intensity of the game, which was heightened by the real-time engine and soundtrack. Despite the game being "90% Raptors", which IGN found not as scary as monsters from Resident Evil, they found the dinosaur sound effects to be well done.

The graphics were viewed as dated on Windows, with IGN calling it "choppy" and pointing out the poor resolution upscaling. Her outfit is also available to wear in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis and in Dead Rising 3 via downloadable content. GamePro found the dinosaurs "imbued with an excellent AI that keeps the action fresh and exciting", although some found the variety of dinosaurs to be lacking.
