* GoombaStomp: The Raptor can jump on enemies which instantly kills them. Other attacks, such as the bite, aren't as powerful as the pounce.



** The Raptor pretty much kills any creature just by touching them, particularly humans who don't respawn unlike the ''Dilophosaurus''.


Added DiffLines:

* PurposelyOverpowered: The Raptor is practically unstoppable compared to Grant. Grant's effectiveness is literally dependent on the finite ammo he's got for each weapon he has while some dinosaur enemies are only vulnerable to one kind of weapon or take up more ammo than necessary (plus they're only temporarily knocked out rather than killed). The Raptor on the other hand has three infinite attacks and can instantly kill human enemies permanently, with only jumping over BottomlessPits being the biggest obstacle. Not surprisingly, the Raptor has 5 levels while Grant has 7 levels.

As Grant tries to make his way to the Visitor Center, he is repeatedly ambushed by the ''T. rex'' , who would smash through walls and attempt to eat the paleontologist. There are no means for Grant to permanently defeat the ''T. Rex''; at best, he can only temporarily stun it to get pass.

One of the many ''Franchise/JurassicPark'' games released for the 16-Bit Era. This one is a PlatformGame for the ''UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis''.

Developed by Blue Sky Software (Developers of ''VideoGame/{{Vectorman}}''), In this game players have the choice to take control of either Dr. Alan Grant or [[VillainProtagonist the Velociraptor]], each of them with their own unique controls and skills, and they tackle platform stages on their own story campaigns.

The game boasts exciting and recognizable sounds from the film, and motion-captured sprites, which at the time was in its infancy in 1993.

This game is not to be confused with the [[VideoGame/JurassicParkSegaMasterSystem Master System]], [[VideoGame/JurassicParkSegaCD Sega CD]], or the [[VideoGame/JurassicParkArcade Arcade]] version, which are completely different games that have no relation with this one.

The game received its own unique sequel in the ''Rampage Edition'', well before ''The Lost World'' came out in 1997.
