Not the worst way to spend a couple of hours
In The Park, you play as a mother searching for your son inside an abandoned amusement park - a pretty straightforward plot for a horror game.
Being more of a psychological horror game, things are of course not actually that simple....
You play The Park from a first person perspective, whilst you (so very slowly) explore the park, uncovering the backstory of both your character, and the park itself , through notes and clues found littered throughout.
There is zero combat in this, so the focus is solely on the narrative, and the exploration element.
There's a subtle sense of unease throughout the games short runtime, and it does a pretty good job of creating a creepy atmosphere, and uses some pretty trippy and sometimes disturbing imagery to put you on edge.
The Park is low on actual scares (I recall jumping once throughout) and the plotline never makes it clear what is real and what is in your head - which wouldn't usually be an issue, however the ending is left open to discussion and interpretation, to the point that it ends on a rather unsatisfying note.
Overall, certainly worth a play through if you enjoy anything remotely horror related, but I'm glad I picked it up dirt cheap in a PlayStation Store sale!

I remember enjoying operation genesis for countless hours way back and so I love that we finally have another jurassic park game. The graphics are great and whilst achieving goals can be challenging and sometimes frustrating overall I have really enjoyed the game so far. The developers have done a great job and have listened to the players when it comes to updates. The only negative for me is lack of space on Isla Nublar.

Great Sfx (1 more)
Cool set designs
Slightly different but still fun
After seeing some of the trailers I wasn't sure how this would pan out. The whole weaponising Dinosaurs from the first Jurassic World seemed like a thin plot line. At the end of the day it still boils down to escaping more Dinos on the run.
The Sfx are very good and there is plenty of tension as the characters get in various states of peril. Overall maybe not quite as good as the first one but if you are a fan of Jurassic Park, you'll happily sink your teeth into this!
