‘Jurassic Park’ Tycoon Game Hitting Mobile In 2012

Hold on to your butts: a Jurassic Park park-building tycoon game is coming to mobile at some point in “early" 2012. On the heels of the announcement that Telltale Games’ take on the franchise has gone gold, Ludia Inc has revealed plans to release a title that revolves around the IP. According to Gamezebo, players will be tasked with building their own Isla Nublar and discovering new dino DNA to morph into dinosaurs.

“We are excited to have the opportunity to create a game that will allow fans of the film franchise to experience the thrills of managing their very own Jurassic Park,” the company said in a statement. This game won’t have a connection with what Telltale is doing with its series later this November to our knowledge, but it is the result of license-holder Universal coming to the table again and striking a deal with a video game developer.

This is from Tap Jurassic, FYI.

Ludia has substantial experience with this social simulation game with dinosaurs thing — its tap title, Tap Jurassic, released earlier this year and apparently wasn’t too bad as far as social games go. We’ll be excited to see what this one will be like. Please be good.
