ABOUT JURASSIC WORLD: EVOLUTION
It's here, a game 65 million years in the making. Jurassic World: Evolution will let us take control of our own Jurassic Parks in a way never seen before, with a huge range of 42+ dinosaurs including old favourites like the Velociraptor and new monstrous beasts like the Indominus Rex, it's sure to get messy by the end. In this playthrough of Jurassic World Evolution we will complete every mission and 5 star all 5 of The Five Deaths, or just watch as a Spinosaurus eats my guests whole, either or really.

No swearing, family friendly commentary.

For Adventure!

I love the island progression in this game. The difficulty ramps up with each island providing a different challenge and trying to teach the player how to be efficient and clever.

Also you - "What you need is some bloody dinosaurs."

You know what would make a for a cool Park Location, San Diego.

I know that there are problems with this game but I absolutely love playing it and I find it so immersive. I know that there are things that need to be corrected and changed but for the amount of development time Frontier had I think that it's a good damn game.

I just found out that monorails don’t need a loop to work, thanks for that. I am now internally yelling at myself for that. This will save so much space and money.

I actually managed to get a 5 star facility rating without the use of the monorail on Isla Pena. I was surprised since the transportation rating is still at 0%. All I did was build everything a guest could want (Hotel, fast food, clothing shop, restroom) in the area with the starting pen and even managed to squeeze in a Dilo exhibit which ended up bringing the overall rating to 2.5 stars.

I was impressed with myself managing to do that, but it completely filled up that tiny area, this video really helped to get better at maximizing the space. Cheers to you BestInSlot.

Man, I spent 6 hours trying to get every 5starred on this before finding your video and just clicking restart island.
Ez Fix.
Thank you for your work <3

Another thing I didn't figure out till the 3rd island (I'm dumb btw) was my facilities rating was low and my guests were unhappy with food/drink/entertainment even though I had plenty of food/clothes shops near hotels and frankly everywhere. The problem was I never increased the amount of workers in the shops so all my stores had max occupancy meaning no other people could really enter them. Imagine it like a 4 hour wait time at a Disney land restaurant. So once I figured out I had to up my shop workers my problem was fixed. Maybe this will help someone. But like I said I was dumb and shoulda figured it out earlier lol

The main thing on Pena is space and power. Solve that by using a single Hammond lab (had mine up top next to the entrance). That was my only HL on the whole island and whenever I was making a new dino, before releasing it, I would hop into my ACU, pilot it right next to the 5mx5m fence I and around HL, hop out, release the dino, hop back in and tranq it. Then transport the dino to whatever paddock I wanted. That way, I was using 16 power for it( base 10 + 6power for upgrades) and very little space. In total, I had 3 medium power station, 1HL, 2 Hotels, 1 TREX paddock, one paddock with 4 raptors and 2 metri, one paddock with herbivores, one paddock with Giga and Dianocus (i think) and one with 2 ceratosaurs and 3 dianicus. All paddocks had viewing galleries and towers and my Trex paddock had double fence (used to be an Indomus there, but I believe it has a thing where it will attack fences just for lolz and I got tired of it breaking the fence, so sold it and Rexy was quite happy there), a monorail and a bunch of shops. Pena was quite fun

[Sagasol]

What I really do not like about Pena, is how small it is. So very very small. And dark. I want to see my dinosaurs p_p

[eyelazer]

This… this really helped, my god this island was difficult at first, before I got this wonderful information, I put like Rapters or the deinonychus, but then those stupid tornados came by and recked my day.

[shiftingphoenix]

This helped me and my sister so much! Thank you man 😭😂

[yadiralucero]

One time I found my Trex poking it's head out of the fence the guests got scared XD

[tricksietalon]

Huge help! My instincts have been good but I didn't realize some of the small things you mention which will be enormously helpful for me like deleting the paths once your monorail is in. I'm going to share this with a friend who is also struggling here. Money was my main problem. Yay, I have hope! Thank you!

[shadoweyes]

Thank you so much for making this video. I just recently started Pena, and haven't been able to figure it out. I feel silly now, but I had no idea that monorails could replace regular paths when it comes to power, this bit of info will help out so much...not just on Pena, but all the islands, thank you :)

[Dynamic-B]

This video helped a lot I have been stuck on that island for ever and you are the one person out of so many you tubers who actually helped me with it

[mallieofuss]

This island is a challenge, great tips in this video really will help those going into it blind. Took me a while to get the park up and going. Then came my first game changer! This game has its challenging moments that could put people off, but if you stick with it this game is so rewarding! Plus nostalgia! That keeps me playing it! Thanks for the video dude :)

[prod]

I love your walk throughs you're so thorough and you explain it in a way where you don't frustrate and confuse people. Straight and to the point.

[timberwolfe]

These advice videos are super helpful; thanks again for taking the time out to help, BIS!

[clint]

Holy cow!! The one thing that blew me away is the monorail. I thought you HAD to loop them to make them work!!! THANK YOU for that.
