Well, this is my first review for TeRRaTRoN. Actually, it's my first review
|
|||
|
|
ever. Hopefully, you'll enjoy this review as much as I enjoyed putting it
|
|||
|
|
together. Enough with the formalities, on with the review...
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
DinoPark Tycoon is a game based on a zoo which exhibits only dinosaurs
|
|||
|
|
(surprise, surprise!) You are a zoo owner required to buy all the necessary
|
|||
|
|
pieces to run your zoo. Naturally, the object of the game is to turn a
|
|||
|
|
profit and not go bankrupt.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The game starts with a bank loan of $5000 from which you need to buy land,
|
|||
|
|
fencing, dinosaurs and food. Employees, concessions and advertisements are
|
|||
|
|
optional, but eventually they will be needed.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
To start you need to buy land. The differnt types of land are desert, plains
|
|||
|
|
or marsh. Each type of land supports only certain types of dinosaurs.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Next, you'll need fencing to prevent the dinos from rampaging the city.
|
|||
|
|
The options of fences are wood, chain link and cement. In addition,
|
|||
|
|
electrical wiring can be added to any type of fence. I haven't determined
|
|||
|
|
exactly what the difference is but as you can guess, the more expensive the
|
|||
|
|
fence, the better it should be.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Next you'll need some dinos to show the public. There are 20 different types
|
|||
|
|
of dinosaurs to choose from. Each has it's own specifications for quantity
|
|||
|
|
and type of food it consumes. To find out this information, just click on
|
|||
|
|
the dinosaur and then on the "?".
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Somebody must run the zoo so you'll need some employees. Employees include
|
|||
|
|
maintenance, veterinarian, security, tour guide, concession and manager. The
|
|||
|
|
only required employee is a security guard. A tour guide will increase
|
|||
|
|
revenues and a maintenance worker will ensure the fences don't have holes
|
|||
|
|
in them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You'll also need something to feed the dinos so get some food. Food comes in
|
|||
|
|
3 different flavours: Meats, plants and seeds. The choice of food depends
|
|||
|
|
on your dinosaurs. There are 3 different levels of each type: small, medium
|
|||
|
|
and large.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Finally, you'll need to set the price of admission and then you'll be ready
|
|||
|
|
to start. Thats all you need to begin playing the game, but here's some of
|
|||
|
|
the other stuff you can get (if you have the money :)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Concessions: There are food stands, restrooms (useful!), gift stores and
|
|||
|
|
extra parking.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Advertisements: Flyers, newspaper, radio, television. The bigger the ad,
|
|||
|
|
the more people who'll show up. (obvious huh?)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Make sure you check your profit-and-loss system often too see how you're
|
|||
|
|
doing. There is also a small section about dinosaurs and their history.
|
|||
|
|
This will give you a chance to get to know the different types of dinosaurs.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
After playing it for a short period, I would say it's a pretty good game.
|
|||
|
|
It reminds me a lot of SimCity with it's time clock and point-and-click
|
|||
|
|
interface. Sound support is excellent, still missing GUS support though ):
|
|||
|
|
There are digital sounds throughout the game. For example, after you
|
|||
|
|
choose a dinosaur, there's a neat hatching sound. I thoroughly enjoyed these
|
|||
|
|
sounds, but I can see them getting annoying after playing for a long period
|
|||
|
|
of time.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The graphics are about average. There is animation throughout the game,
|
|||
|
|
and makes it interesting whenever you pause to think. The speed is good,
|
|||
|
|
even on my pathetic 386/20mhz.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In conclusion, I would recommend this small download. If you enjoyed
|
|||
|
|
SimCity and like dinosaurs, I'm sure you'll have hours of fun. Well, I'm
|
|||
|
|
off to play some more. Maybe, the dinosaurs won't get out this time.
