You move around crates to climb on a roof otherwise out of reach, you move planks to 'repair' a damaged bridge, you throw objects, stones or even emptied weapons on your enemies. What made this game way ahead of its time was the physical system it features - while it is lackluster, it still is fascinating to experiment with.

The whole experience manages to suck you in the game's world - nothing detracts you from the illusion of seeing through the eyes of your alter ego, even your health indicator is implemented in the gameworld in a very clever way. The dinosaurs you'll encounter follow their different behaviours and even if they are not of the most intelligent kind, they sometimes feel menacingly real. What first comes to my mind if I think on this game: It's huge, open world and manages to evok a feeling of loneliness and desperation. Stranded on a giant island that's inhabitet by - you guess it - prehistoric monstrosities, you explore the remnants of a great vision: A Jurassic Park. I confess: I love this game! Yes, it's buggy and difficult to play - but it's one of the most original games I've ever played.
