History VideoGame / LegoJurassicWorld

** And then the lawnmower goes past in the background ''again'' during the raptor chase sequence in ''Jurassic Park III''.
** And '''again''' in Jurassic World, in the Raptor Hunting sequence, the lawnmower is seen chasing after Echo and Delta in the background of the level at one point. Pretty good batteries in that thing.

* RunningGag: Sausages, initially as a TrademarkFavouriteFood of Velociraptors.

* SloMoBigAir:
** At least once during any dinosaur chase sequence involving a large carnivore, which includes:
** The ''T. rex'' in ''Jurassic Park'' chasing Muldoon, Ellie and Ian, the ''T. rex'' attack on the camp in ''The Lost World'', Grant and Billy escaping from the ''Spinosaurus'' in ''Jurassic Park III'' and the Gyrosphere escape from the ''Indominus Rex'' in ''Jurassic World''.

* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: And [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcAWX3tR9Oc one of the trailers]] makes ''sure'' you know it. You can play as every single dinosaur seen in the game, including a few hybrids.

* DeveloperaForesight: If you pay close attention to the raptor characters, you'll see they all have their large claw on their inner-most toe... except the skeletal raptor, who has it on its middle toes. This is both a MythologyGag to the first movie, where Dr. Grant claimed the latter was true at the dig site, but the living raptors had former talons, and makes sense, because ''World'' acknowledged that the living dinos were all paleontologically inaccurate due to genetic modifications.

** Owen Grady, while still a very useful character, does not wield a gun, nor has abilities he probably should based on the films like tracking or senior Jurassic World employee access, presumably to prevent ComplacentGamingSyndrome of using only him.

** Just barebly averted with [[GreaterScopeVillain Lewis Dogdson,]] who does not physically appear due to his meeting with Nedry in Costa Rica being cut, but we hear his voice over the phone.

** During the Main Street ''Jurassic World'' level, Claire and Owen save a park-goer who looks remarkably like Marty McFly from a ''Pteradon'' by [[turning on a hologram projector atop a movie theater marquis, which projects a giant Tyrannosaur head that bites down at the park-goer.]]

* AdaptedOut: Due to ''VideoGame/LEGODimensions'' being long-discontinued, the 2019 Nintendo Switch port removes the post-credits ProductionForeshadowing of the Vorton Gateway and Keystones being dug up.

** A paleontologist at the end of the Dig Site level digs up an [[Film/BackToTheFuture OUTTATIME license plate]], which he throws away in confusion.

* SeldomSeenSpecies: ''Baryonyx'', ''Corythosaurus'', ''Troodon'' and ''Dimorphodon'' are among the playable dinosaurs, though ''Dimorphodon'' is a pterosaur and not a true dinosaur. It should be noted these genera are among the StockDinosaurs, but are rarely seen in mainstream media.

* AdaptedOut: Due to ''VideoGame/LEGODimensions'' being long-discontinued, the Nintendo Switch port removes the post-credits SequelHook of the Vorton Gateway and Keystones being dug up.

* SequelHook: The game ends with archaeologists digging up a [[VideoGame/LEGODimensions Keystone]].

* SparedByTheAdaptation: The game spares [[spoiler:Jophery Brown from the raptor holding pen scene (the raptors were only after his lunch), Nedry (who distracts the ''Dilophosaurus'' with food and runs off), Muldoon (escapes the Big One offscreen), Gennaro (gets puked up by the ''T. rex'' at the end), all of Malcolm's teammates in ''The Lost World'', as well as Grant's in the second (usually seen running away before the dinosaurs can kill them and [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse never being seen again]]) and even Ludlow (who gets his comeuppance by being trapped as the baby ''T. rex's'' plaything). In the ''Jurassic World'' segment, many of the ''Indominus rex'''s victims survive, Masrani and co. are seen crawling away from the wreckage of the helicopter, and the entire Raptor Squad survive the game and loot the shops after all the humans have left. Even the ''I. Rex'' is shown alive inside the ''Mosasaurus'' playing poker with Zara and a few other workers.]].

** In ''Jurassic Park III'', one of the bizarre creatures to be seen at the Isla Sorna breeding site is a [[Series/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy babel fish]].

* JumpScare: A suprising amount for a [[VideoGame/LEGOAdaptionGame LEGO game]]. Mostly done by the ''Velociraptors'' and ''Indominus Rex''. In the former case, they pounce the player and you have to complete a [[PressXToNotDie quick time event]] to escape.

A port for the UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch will release on September 17th, 2019.

* MonsterClown: Mentioned in passing when a worker in the Jurassic World section comments about the Indominus Rex "couldn't be any creepier than if they stuffed it full of clown DNA".

* ThemeTuneCameo:
** Every time a computer starts up, the boot sound is a version of the theme tune.
** An ice cream van in the Long Grass segment of ''The Lost World'' plays the theme tune.
** In a cutscene near the end of the ''Lost World'' segment, the baby T. rex plays the theme tune on a toy xylophone.
** A match-the-pattern puzzle in ''Lost World'' free play.
** A jukebox in ''Jurassic World''.

** In ''VideoGame/JurassicParkTheGame'', the ''Troodons'' were nightmarish venomous creatures that even the raptors feared. Here, they're just low-level {{Mooks}} that can be easily defeated, and they don't have their venom.

* AdaptationalWimp: The ''Spinosaurus'' is turned into a comically ineffectual BigBadWannabe who suffers a very undignified near-DeathByAdaptation. It also fails to defeat the ''Tyrannosaurus'' unlike in the film (though we don't see who wins).

** In all four movies, a pig keeps turning up! It appears stuck in a tree in ''Jurassic Park'', is later seen in the warehouse and on the boat in ''The Lost World'', is later in a bowl of what appears to be ''soup'' in ''Jurassic Park III'' and is chased by one of the Raptors in ''Jurassic World.'' The pig survives all of them. BestInSlot, who always noticed the pig during his playthrough, lovingly named the pig "Oinkers".
