1992[]

Jurassic Park (Tiger Handheld game)[]

Considering the ridiculously simplistic nature of the devices in question. There is no story nor end to the game. There is only one environmental backplate (likely a stock woodland environment image) serving as the island, and the three carnivorous dinosaurs showcased in the movie.

1993[]

Jurassic Park (NES game)[]

TBA

Jurassic Park (SNES game)[]

The full scale of the island is not fully explored, only taking precedence with the areas immediately around the Visitor Center.

Differences from the film[]

No road or path is present.
Only three full size paddocks are visible, the species in which is supposed to be featured is unknown.
The Docks are much closer to the Visitor Center.
The area features things not known to be present in the movie, such as electric cattle grids and artificial pits and water reservoirs.
Two adult male Tyrannosaurus rex are present.
A population of raptors are nesting underneath the park, (similar to the Novel).

Confirmed Locations[]

Active Species: 8[]

Island Fate: Unknown.

1994[]

Jurassic Park (arcade game)[]

Despite being a rail shooter (and alleged alternate sequel to the original film), the game holds significant differences in continuity from the film. Although being an alleged sequel, some things other locations may be explored not in the film, such with the idea of flooded areas, rocky mountain passes, underwater caves, or volcanic fields.

Differences from the film[]

The Gates and must be passed through to arrive at the Visitor Center.
A population of raptors are nesting underneath the park, (similar to the Novel).
The Dilophosaurus Paddock not near the Main gate.
Ankylosaurus, Pteranodon, and Ichthyosaurs are present despite not being showcased anywhere in the films.
The Brachiosaurus enclosure is wildly different to the one in the movie, primarily being a mangrove forest.
Both skeletons in the visitor center are still standing, but one of them is a second tyrannosaur instead of an Alamosaurus.
Two adult tyrannosaurs are present.

Confirmed Locations[]

Main Gate
Dilophosaur Paddock
Brachiosaur Paddock
Velociraptor Paddock
Visitor Center (Lobby/Garage)

Active Species: 9[]

Island Fate: With most of the dinosaurs either killed or sedated (many of which returns to their paddocks), volcanic activity, and no confirmed staff left on the island. It is likely that the animals were simply left inside of their enclosures.

1999[]

Warpath: Jurassic Park[]

Various locations from Hammond’s theme park make appearances as battle stages in the game. Considering this is a fighting game, there is no story nor solid explanation for what is displayed outside of a gameplay sense. Although the intro cutscenes and dinosaurs options may hint at a differing continuity.

Locations Present

Tyrannosaurus Paddock (Viewing area/Tree base)
Velociraptor Paddock
Visitor Center (Lobby/Embryonics lab)

2015[]

Jurassic Park Arcade[]

Sometime after the fall of Jurassic Park, an elite team of military specialists return to the island to save dinosaur specimens from an active volcano.

Active Species:[]

Additionally, the island seems to carry various large invertebrates. It is unknown if these were genetically cloned to add to the prehistoric atmosphere or are unrelated naturally occurring creatures.

Fly
Giant spider
Grub
Mosquito

Island Fate: The island by the end of the story, the island and all of its dinosaurs are left to the volcano, save for the three individual animals that the team had salvaged.

LEGO Jurassic World[]

The continuity of the Lego game is complicated. When arriving on Isla Nublar, the player has the option to either go to JP or JW. Effectively putting the first and fourth movie at roughly the same time while still keeping the canon of being 20 years apart and having Jurassic World being built over the original from 1993, dilapidated visitor center and everything.

Island Fate: The exact fate for this rendition of Nublar is unknown. Although subsequent Lego Jurassic World material expands on the world, nothing is confirmed to be directly connected to the game. Currently the closest explanation to an ending is that the dinosaurs now have reclaimed the island.

Active Species:[]

Up to player’s choice.

Island Fate: Due to the fact the game has been receiving active updates, it appears (unlike the movies) that the theme park is regularly doing well.

Jurassic World: Apatosaurus[]

It is questionable where and when this experience is supposed to take place, as Apatosaurus within the Jurassic Park canon were not cloned until Jurassic World opened, the presence of Redwood Forest would make one believe they were on Isla Sorna, and the presence of a 1992 Jurassic Park Jeep wrangler makes the exact placements of this event. Should it be considered canon at all questionable.

2018[]

Jurassic World Evolution[]

The plot of land where players can build whatever they want on Isla Nublar is a large somewhat hilly and densely forested area with a few select ponds all of which surrounded by mountain ranges. What occupies this landmass (being a sandbox map) is entirely up to the players decision.

Additionally, a larger plot of land for the 1993 DLC “Return to Jurassic Park” showcases a prebuilt visitor compound with a visitor center, energy plant, Velociraptor and Dilophosaurus paddocks, and various still active feeders for many of the herbivorous dinosaurs left behind on the island.

Confirmed Locations[]

Aforementioned
Up to player’s choice

Active Species:[]

Brachiosaurus (DLC map)

Island Fate: Up to player’s choice

Jurassic World: Blue[]

Less of a game, and more a visual experience, we see a few select locations on the island as presented in the films. A small woodland area where Blue was currently resting and later attempted to try and hunt. A baby triceratops in, only to bear witness to the first of many volcanic explosions by mt.Sibo, and later comes across Rexy and a Baryonyx in a dust field likely caused by the volcano.

Island Fate: Due to likely being a somewhat prequel to Fallen Kingdom, the exact fate of the island is presented out in that film.
