Jurassic Park Arcade is a 2015 light gun arcade game developed by Raw Thrills. The game is based on the first three films of the Jurassic Park series.[2]
Gameplay
Jurassic Park Arcade is played across nine levels,[3] set at the Jurassic Park theme park on Isla Nublar.[4] A security team has been sent to retrieve one dinosaur from each species located on the island,[4] which is becoming unstable due to an erupting volcano.[citation needed] Five weapons are available to the player throughout the game. A boss enemy must be defeated at the end of each level.[2]
Development
Development began in 2011,[5] and lasted more than three years, costing $4 million.[2] Raw Thrills worked closely with Universal to ensure that the game's dinosaurs resembled their real-life counterparts, while also maintaining their appearances from the films. To reflect the latest scientific discoveries, some of the game's dinosaurs were animated with feathers and bright skin colors.[2]
The game was first unveiled at IAAPA in November 2014,[5] and was later shown at the U.K.'s EAG Expo in January 2015.[4]
Release
A regular sit-down cabinet was released in March 2015, while a deluxe cabinet with motion seats was released in April 2015.[3][6]
