Shooter

Sci-Fi

A relic of the mid-90s, this third-person shooter places you on Isla Sorna, tasked with surviving its prehistoric inhabitants. The core loop revolves around scavenging for ammo and health while picking off velociraptors, compys, and the occasional T-Rex. Its clunky controls and repetitive environments haven't aged gracefully, yet the frantic struggle for survival against increasingly aggressive dinosaurs still holds a certain charm for those who appreciate old-school difficulty.
