<p><span style="font-size:16px">Now Most people know that the Lego games aren't really challenging, but more of a collectathon. I enjoy these games and have to say I played this loads with my son and each movie's scenario took around 4-5 hrs to complete, After finishing the first movie I only had 9% completion. I think it would last younger children a lot longer though as some of the puzzles and collectables aren't really obvious what you have to do. Of course the main challenge of the game is to get 100% completion which will easily take 20-25hrs to achieve.</span></p>

Verdict
What We Liked ...
- Faithfully recreates the movies with added Lego Humor
- Great chase scenes
- Loads of content
- DINOSAURS!
What We Didn't Like ...
- Some glitchy collectibles
6
Gameplay
The Regular Lego formulae is here. Smash stuff up then build other stuff. There is nothing really new but the chase and race sections are great.
9
Presentation
TT Games have done a great job with Lego Jurassic World. This is a big world to explore, covering all 4 movies perfectly with the classic Lego style.
8
Lasting Appeal
Lego Jurassic Park will take you around 20-25hrs to 100% if you are a regular player of Lego games. Probably double that for younger players.
Replaying races and dinosaur runs is fun as they are the perfect length for a quick go.
