Did you ever play Jurassic Park: The Game? Yes No

Point-and-click
Many people complained that the game wasn't very challenging because it was a point-and-click game. There was no option to roam free over the island and make your own decisions.

In 1993 Mega released the point-and-click game Jurassic Park (SEGA CD Game). Its gameplay was even more restrictive that JP:TG. Nonetheless, Mega placed this game at #9 in their Top Mega CD Games of All Time.

Can you explain the difference in popularity?

Wanted a roam-free shooter
Many people complained that they wanted a roam-free dino shooter, like Jurassic Park: Trespasser. Compared to that wish, JP:TG was very restrictive. Have you ever played these roam-free dino shooters? Turok (2008) Primal Carnage Orion: Dino Horde The Stomping Land
