The Story Behind The Lost World: Jurassic Park

It was the first shooting game to use Model 3, which Sega AM3 had never used before. The development team had difficulty designing the game due to unfamiliarity with Model 3. The Lost World: Jurassic Park is based on Steven Spielberg's 1997 film of the same name.

Some of the development team members went to the United States to visit the film's sets, which inspired the level designs. The development team wanted the sequel to have more tension. Shinichi Ogasawara was the game's director.

What You'll Play

Like some of Sega's light gun rail shooters such as Virtua Cop and The House of the Dead, The Lost World: Jurassic Park features a dynamically adjusting difficulty system that will increase difficulty as the player progresses and decrease as they lose lives. The player controls one of two rangers, whose goal is to find Dr. Velociraptors are also featured as enemies throughout the game.

Compsognathus, Dilophosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, and pterosaurs are also encountered throughout the game. Four of the levels feature a boss battle that must be won to advance the game. As difficulty increases, dinosaurs attack quicker, more dinosaurs will try to attack the player simultaneously, and more target icons need to be shot to cancel a boss dinosaur's attack.

Why It Still Hits

There is a line where anything can be considered to be too loud, and The Lost World: Jurassic Park crosses that line. In Japan, Game Machine listed The Lost World: Jurassic Park as the third most successful dedicated arcade game of August 1997. Arcade magazine called the game "hours of mindless fun," and "a fantastic coin-op shooter which bore little resemblance to its cinematic cousin".

GamePro wrote that the game, when it was unveiled at E3, "was so cool, it earned ShowStopper status even as a display," while Next Generation wrote that it was, "Easily one of the most impressive titles at E3". Next Generation also reported, "Some rival companies privately admitted: 'This game is so exciting, it could have become a hit even without the licensed property behind it.'" After the game's release, Johnny Ballgame of GamePro wrote that the graphics "are a giant leap forward for gun games in terms of sight and speed." Computer and Video Games wrote that the graphics "look amazingly authentic". The Lost World: Jurassic Park was a runner-up for "Arcade Game of the Year" (behind NFL Blitz) at Electronic Gaming Monthlys 1997 Editors' Choice Awards.
