In 1993 Steven Spielberg took Michael Crichton’s novel about a dinosaur theme park and turned it into a cinema masterpiece. And ever since then every developer from Konami to Telltale has tried to make the films into a video game. The developers were so concerned with whether or not they could, they never stopped to consider whether they should. Welcome to every Jurassic Park Game ever made ranked from worst to best.

For all of the crap developers pushed out to quickly cash in on Jurassic Park’s success, Jurassic Park: The Ride Online Adventure is a breath of fresh air. The site is still up, but the game itself doesn’t seem to be functioning. It’s still worth a visit for some 90’s internet nostalgia.
