A brand new Jurassic World board game is on the way from Funko, being billed as a legacy experience and titled Jurassic World: The Legacy of Isla Nublar. Polygon wrote up a detailed preview of the game this morning, and the project is headed to Kickstarter on March 22, 2022.
From Prospero Hall and Funko Games, the game is set to be a “gripping journey of ambition and adventure,” and it will allow 2-4 players to essentially design Isla Nublar in their own image. The game will feature 21 playable characters and 12 different dinosaurs, each of them based not only on the original Jurassic Park but also *all* of the subsequent sequels.
Polygon details, “In Jurassic World: The Legacy of Isla Nublar, 2-4 players take on the role of iconic characters from the movies in order to recreate their key scenes. Objective-based gameplay runs on an action economy, with players moving around the board and taking actions in any order they choose. One might lead a few guests off toward the safety of the nearby visitor center while another runs past, dodging a carnivorous dinosaur on the way to take a genetic sample from a nearby herbivorous herd. In motion, it feels a bit like a late-round game of Betrayal at House on the Hill. While the titular island keeps the same shape during a given game, dinosaurs and other threats are constantly changing and moving around the map.”
The site also notes, “New rules, new locations, and new characters are flowing into Jurassic World all the time from a dozen sealed envelopes. That keeps the moment-to-moment gameplay fresh and the timeline moving forward toward the next film.”
And here’s the official rundown from the team over at Prospero Hall…
Welcome to Isla Nublar, where you and other scientists, dreamers, and schemers will build an attraction like no other. Take on the role of visionaries John Hammond and Simon Masrani, visiting scientists Dr. Alan Grant, Dr. Ellie Sattler and Dr. Ian Malcolm, sharp-minded park personnel Claire Dearing and Dr. Henry Wu, and many more, each playing a vital part in the island’s legacy.
Together, you will transform Isla Nublar into an astonishing paradise where awe-struck visitors encounter creatures never before seen by human eyes. Decide where to build park facilities, dinosaur enclosures, and guest attractions — and keep employees and visitors safe from the mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex, colossal Brachiosaurus, clever Velociraptor, and other threats.
In Jurassic World: The Legacy of Isla Nublar, you play through twelve adventures in which you customize an entirely unique game board and breed new dinosaurs you cannot unmake. Your team’s fateful choices will have a lasting impact, creating your own Isla Nublar story. Your experience will culminate in an endlessly replayable game of your own creation.
