Trespasser and Jurassic Park III
Posted: Thu Mar 05, 2020 9:53 pm
Dear Trespassers,
I know it's unbelievable but I the first time I watched first three the Jurassic Park films had been last week and I'm in my third decade (of my life). Somehow I found out about Trespasser on the web (old review articles, etc.) and managed to "acquire" it (although not in a 100% legal way I'm afraid but if I can find a box copy anywhere I will buy it instantly).
I completed the game and can only say that I loved it very much. The idea of it, the immersive world, the challenging puzzles and the narration by those fantastic voice actors are the best features in my opinion. It is my very first first-person shooter I played in my life as well and I know next to nothing about firearms but it didn't retract anything from the experience, I could roleplay in a way that Anne didn't know anything about them as well.
The reason for this post (aside from me venting some of my new fanboyish enthusiasm out to you) is that in the Jurassic Park III film which was released 3 years after Trespasser I found the basic idea is very similar to Trespasser's. A group crashes on the island. Only the tail survives in the crash. They have to survive the dinosaur attacks and rescued after calling for help via technology. Wonder if the filmmakers were Trespasser fans as well…
I'm also very curious which year did you first play Trespasser so I attached a little poll to this post. And if there is a similar poll on this site please give me the link for that.
