Chapter 1: How the Game Works
J
urassic Park: the role-playing game is meant to be
played with one Director and two to twelve
players. It should last between one and three
hours. It is normal for about half of the characters
to die each time the game is played. Character
Creation is intended to be done at the beginning
of nearly every game (unless you are playing a
character who survived a previous film).
As a role-playing game, you'll be describing your actions
through the lens of your characters, facing obstacles and
dangers created by the Director.
Directors
One player must serve as the Director. They will be in charge
of the obstacles in the game instead of taking control of a
character. Whoever is planning on being the Director should
be the most familiar with the rules of this game (read
Chapter 5, Directing the Game).
Films and Scenes
The game is broken down into Films and Scenes.
Films take place over the course of a single day, for however
long you play. Sometimes films can take place over the
course of two different sessions, but most should conclude at
the end of each play session.
Scenes change every time the focus switches to a different
location. Scenes usually require anywhere from three to ten
coin tosses.
Flipping the Coin
Most elements of the game are decided via coin toss. Every
time you want to Attack a creature or Evade an obstacle, you
must flip the coin. On heads, you are successful in whatever
action you are trying to accomplish. On a tails, you fail.
Multiple failures can lead to injury or death.
Variant: Calling the toss
Instead of having heads always count as a success,
you can have the players call what side of the coin
is going to come up.
You may only flip a coin for Specialties that your character
has (See Actions and Specialties for more information).
Moments of Fate
Once per film, each character is allowed to declare an
automatic success after failing a toss. This is usually done in
order to accomplish that character's mission (see next).
Missions
Each player is given their own personal mission by the
Director. These Missions should be kept secret from the
other players as they may contradict each other. Often they
are sent by text message or direct message to reduce chance
of interception.
Creating a Character
Creating characters is a fast and easy process. As death is
common, characters should be easy to create for each new
session. There are only 3 steps to creating your character, all
of which can be seen on your character sheet for easy
creation. If that is still too much work, you can always use
one of the pre-made characters from the book (see the end of
the book for Pre-Made Characters).
Steps to Character Creation
1. Choose a Hero
2. Choose 3 Specialties
3. Choose an Item
This is all of the necessary information to be able to play the
game. You'll find more information on all 3 in the next three
chapters of this book.
Taking your Action
When out of combat, it is okay to interrupt the narrator to ask
if you may do a certain action (as long as it is not done
excessively). If it falls under the scope of an Action or a
Specialty, you must make a coin toss.
Each turn in combat, you can take any action or use a
specialty. If you have a companion, their action will come
immediately after yours. If you are playing as a dinosaur (see
below), their description will tell you who to attack.
The Director will narrate scenes and then give each player a
chance to take a turn in whatever order the players choose.
Then the Director will take actions for all Dinosaurs and
Director-Controlled Characters.
After Death
Failing three coin tosses in a row usually results in death.
Once unconscious, many coin tosses are fatal if failed.
When you are dead, the Director may ask you for help in
operating one or more of the dinosaurs. For more
information, see Chapter 7: Dinosaurs.
Other Information on your Sheet
Y
ou may notice other sections on your character
sheet that provide additional information if you
would like. Most of this information is
presented in the bottom-right hand corner, with
the exception of the Goldblum Scale at the top
of the page. All of these aspects are optional and
it is up to your Director to determine whether or
not to use them.
Status
Your Status is a scale of how well your characters is surviving
the dangers. If you take damage, mark from left to right
starting at Wounded (starting from the boxes marked "Armor"
if your character starts with Armor as their Item). If your third
box is checked, your character is dead.
Goldblum Scale
Every character makes choices based on what will be called
The Goldbloom Scale. On this scale of 1 to 5, the number
represents how often your character would be willing to
sacrifice their needs to help someone else.
A score of 1, for example, would be a self-serving character,
such as Dennis Nedry, the hacker who created chaos in the
original Jurassic Park. On the opposite end of the spectrum, a
score of 5 represents a character who constantly sacrifices
their own needs to help others. Picture Dr. Ellie Satler who
got off the tour in order to help a sick Triceratops. In the
middle is a character who sways their morality much like the
wind, which is called True Goldblum.
It looks like this on your character sheet:
  1       2       3       4       5
Villain ----------------------- Goldblum ------------------------ Hero
Circle whichever score you think best represents your
character. This will influence how your character acts in each
scene.
If you wish to hide the fact that your character is a villain,
you may tell your Director privately and then mark a higher
score than the truth.
Moment of Fate
Your one-time opportunity to turn a failure into a success,
once per film). Put an "x" through the box when you use this.
Companion
Sometimes you will have a companion, whether human or
beast with you. A novice companion uses the first two boxes
for it's wound points; an advanced companion uses all five
boxes for wound points.
When any creature reaches one remaining wound point,
they fall unconcious. When they reach zero hit points, they
perish.
Security Clearance
Your access to whatever facilities exist in your realm.
Level 1 - Basic Access to Herbivore Areas, temporary living
quarters, or any VIP areas. It can be bought as an Item or
given out by a Host, or awarded by the Director if warranted.
Level 2 - Security Access given to Head Maintenance,
Ranger, Security or Trainers. It can open up most areas and
turn off many electric fences. Directors may grant Level 2
Clearance to any player they think warrants it.
Level 3 - Elite Access. Usually only the Host of each complex
has this level of clearance, but it is occasionally given to
second in commands or stolen by successful hackers.
Description
Describe what makes your character unique, either
physically, mentally or characteristically. This part is free-
form, but there are some examples in Pre-Made Characters
at the end of the booklet.
Flaws
Every character has a flaw, and the nature of your flaw is
entirely up to you and the Director. Flaws have a trigger
("When __ happens") and an outcome ("My character...").
Here are some example Flaws:
Bloodthirsty - When your character has the chance to kill a
creature, keep attacking until at least one is dead.
Easily Panicked - When you are within Close range of a
creature, pick a direction and Sprint away.
Defender - When you are faced with danger, stand between
the danger and allies.
Foolhardy - When another character is injured and you are
aware of it, volunteer to go help them.
Greedy - When offered money, accept unless it threatens
their life.
Hemophiliac - When blood is in sight, become naseaous
(can't attack or evade) or fall Unconcious.
Naiive - When a character lies to you, you believe them.
Sickly - When your character makes a Sprint toss, take a
wound point.
Unafraid - When your character finds a creature that does
not seem threatening, you must approach it.
Unkempt - When your character tries to Implore or Barter,
you must toss twice in order to succeed once.
Chapter 2: Heroes

W
hether an adventurous field scientist or a
snarky theorist, , choosing your Hero
determines a lot of how your character
behaves. Use it to influence the description    
of your character. Additionally, each Hero
grants two distinct benefits.
The first benefit that Heroes grant is a unique ability.
Secondly, they grant a bonus Specialty, in addition to your
choice of three (see Actions and Specialties in Chapter 3).
Hero Keywords
Ability is property unique to each class. Work with your          
   Director if you would like to create a new Ability.
Bonus Specialty is an extra Specialty awarded to each
  class, provided by the chart below.
Suggested Item(s) are recommended Items to get for your
  single choice of item at character creation.
Example Characters are characters from the movies or        
  books that represent that Hero.

about the dinosaur, then use your power to avoid any life-
threatening situation.
Hacker
A tech whiz, rarely failing when it comes to Hardware and
Software alike.

Chapter 3: Actions

A
ctions compose all of the various things that
your character can spend their turn doing. You
may either take one of the listed actions or you
may use any of your Specialties (choose 3 at
Character Creation). In addition, it is always
okay to perform an action that makes use of
your surroundings, such as I'm going to swing
off the pipes or I'm going to hide in one of the cabinets.

Actions
Actions can be performed by every player, unless they are
undergoing a status effect that prevents it.
Attack
Attack a creature your fists, an object or a weapon you carry.
Unarmed or improvised attacks deal 1 wound point (see
Items for information on other weapons).
Evade
If any nefarious creature attacks you, you may toss to avoid
damage. Most dinosaurs do not evade, only attack.
You may also use this action to pre-emptively Hide from
enemies.
Observe
Look into detail about a specific part of your surroundings.
This can help to prevent enemies from sneaking up on you.
Use distance to qualify where your character is observing:
Close, Mid-Distance, or Far Away.
Pace
Do something at a slow speed. Under threat, flip three times,
taking a single wound point for each failure past the first.
While this action is commonly used for actions like Running,
Swimming and Climbing, it can also be used to Sneak up
on enemies.
Sprint
Do something quickly. A failure results usually in two wound
points of damage.
Much like Pace, however Sprint can be used for Running,
Swimming, Jumping, Climbing or any other physical
activity.

Vehicles
If you do not want any of the Vehicles listed here, work with
your director to determine another suitable vehicle (paying
attention to the differences between Basic and Advanced
Vehicles detailed below).
Basic Vehicle
Any motorized land vehicle, or any non-motorized sea, snow
or air vehicle.
Car
Travels through roads and grassland. Seats 4 - 8.
Glider
Travels from mountaintops to the bottom. Seats 1.
Kayak
Travels across any body of water. Seats 1 - 2.
Motorcycle
Travels through raods, grassland, and jungle. Seats 1 - 2.
Snowmobile
Travels through snow. Seats 1 - 3.
Advanced Vehicle
Any motorized vehicle that the player has the means to
acquire. This can include vehicles of the player's own design
and invention, so long as it is approved by the Director.
Boat
A boat, anywhere from a small motorized dinghy to a yacht.
Travels across any body of water. The cost will be determined
by the Director, seating amount varies.
Helicopter
Can travel to some of the most remote places available. Seats
up to 8.
Plane
Need a runway to take off and land. If not, it requires two flips
to land. Failure results in crashing the plane. Seats 20 - 60.
Submarine
Requires a successful Maneuver toss to submerge and rise. A
failure results in a ten minute delay, then you may attempt
again. Travels in the ocean. Seats 20 - 60.
Truck
A truck of varying size and weight, but they tend to be sturdy.
Serves as Protection 2 while inside. Can travel across roads
and grasslands. Seats 4 - 8.
Weapons
Weapons are used to deal extra damage in combat. They are
broken down into three categories: Improvised (anything you
can find), Basic (an easy to obtain weapon) or Advanced (any
weapon that is restricted or difficult to purchase).
Improvised Weapon
A makeshift weapon, found in many situations. Deal 1 wound
point with your Attack action. Whether it is Melee or Ranged
is up to how you wield the weapon (and the Director's
discretion on what is possible). Some improvised weapons
(such as a net or bolas) do not deal damage, but instead trap
a creature until they make a successful toss (see Directing
the Game in Section 6).
Examples: fork, frying pan, glass shard, rock...
Basic Weapon: Melee
A weapon you can hold in one hand, even if you wield it with
both. Deal 2 wound points with your Attack action.
Examples: baseball bat, handaxe, hammer (ballpoint), knife,  
  spear, sword, whip...
Basic Weapon: Ranged
A gun that can be easily held in one hand or any non-
gunpowder weapon. Deal 1 wound point with your Attack
action from far away.
Examples: bow, crossbow, javelin, pistol, slingshot...
Advanced Weapon: Melee
A heavy weapon that must be held up with two hands.
Includes some weapons that are dangerous and difficult to
wield. Deal 3 wound points with your Attack action.
Examples: electric whip, greataxe, greatsword, maul, scythe...
Advanced Weapon: Ranged
Rifles and other two-handed long-range weapons. They deal
2 wound points with an Attack action from far away.
Examples: machine guns, rifles, shotguns...
Deadly Weapon
A deadly weapon is usually a consumable like explosives or a
grenade launcher. Under Director approval, things like
electrocuting water that a dinosaur is standing in or the flow
of lava on a mountain may be considered a Deadly Weapon.
Deadly Weapons deal 5 damage if successful.
Examples: artillery, being crushed by a car, explosives,
electrocution, falling from a great height, lava....
Chapter 5: Directing the Game
Being the Director
The Director has the most responsibility, ensuring that the
world is explorable with realistic boundaries, as well as
making sure the players are having a good time. It is a
balance between creating challenging obstacles and
rewarding creative, practical solutions. What you allow is
ultimately up to you, but try to keep real-world limitations in
mind.
And above all else...
                                  BE FAIR!
It is your job to ensure that the game is balanced and
earnest. Don't pick on one particular player. Don't let one
player break the laws of reality while confining the others.
Don't kill all your players just because you're mad at them.
Don't design something that they could never beat.
Remember that you are the Director: your job is to create
the narrative and not get in the way of the action. You create
the obstacles and the story evolves from how the players
interact with danger.

Directing the Film

There are three aspects to Directing, each presented in turn
in this chapter.
Gameplay
This section covers all of the mechanics necessary for
running the game, including Distance, Moments of Fate, and
other necessary rules.
Designing the Story
Your goal in designing the Story should be to create a balance
between the extremes of too easy and too difficult. With
Jurassic Park, there is usually some minor mystery to be
unravelled, villains who meet their comeuppance, and
obstacles that must be overcome.
You can be the type of Director to assign missions no
questions asked (missions are included in pre-made
adventures). Or, you can work with each player to figure out
what their character's mission might be. You can always
choose missions that are not present in this manual.
Narrating
Describe what's important in each location when you enter it
the first time. Describe what happens when a character
triumphantly knocks the raptor off of a cliff. Describe how a
character is too scared to move as they are chomped down by
a Mosasaurus.
It is your job to narrate the action, including all the
successes and failures. Paint a picture as to where the
characters are, but leave room for the players own
imagination to fill the gaps. If a setpiece or item can be used
in combat, make sure it is part of your description.
Gameplay
O
ut of combat, players can perform Actions or
Specialties by asking the Narrator and
performing a successful toss. In most combat
scenes, players take the first turn once they
encounter enemies. On their turns, they may
perform a single action. Then the enemies
perform an action
Failure
Failing a check means that it came up tails (or, in the case of
the Variant Rule, failing to call the correct side of the coin).
Your character fails to take whatever action they were trying
to take - like Attacking or trying to recall a crucial peice of
information about dinosaurs.
In combat, actions compose most of the tosses attempted.
A faliure to Attack will usually alert the enemy to your
presence and hostile intent, but has no consequences
otherwise.
A failure to Evade means that the target will lose wound
points according to the weapon or creature information (see
Chapter 7: Bestiary). All failures result in either a wound or a
loss of armor.
A failure to Observe means that you do not notice an enemy,
a trap, or any object in the distance.
A failure to Pace means that a creature detects you. Any
creature that sprints towards you catches up to you.
A failure to Sprint means that you do not get away from the
target and they may attack again.
A failure to perform any Specialty simply means that does not
work successfully, no matter the attempt. It is up to the
Director to determine whether or not the character is able to
try again. See Actions and Specialties for a full list of what
actions you can perform with your Specialties.
Critical Failure
Losing three flips in a row in a life-threatening situation
results in death, no matter what actions are performed. It is
up to the Director to keep track of which flips he considers to
be taken into account of critical failures. For example, an
arbitrary Creature Lore flip may seem innocent - but it could
be the disguised call of a hungry dinosaur, stalking its human
prey. Usually only one character is the subject of a potential
critical failure in every scene.
Damage
Damage to players is dealt in the form of wound points, as
noted on the Character Sheet. Each time they recieve a
wound point from a failure, they put an "x" through their first
available box on the left, starting from "Wounded" to
"Unconcious" to "Dead".
Wounded players may still take actions as normal, though
depending on their wounds, some things will be difficult or
impossible for them (according to the Director).
Unconcious players may not take any more actions or
make any decisions. They automatically fail any Evade toss.
They may, however, use their Moment of Fate (detailed below)
to stay alive for an additional turn. If no one comes to save
them and they are in danger, they will likely die on the
following turn.
Dead players are just that - dead. Their character sheet is
useless now, and can be turned into the Director, who
determines whether or not they met their mission. Whether
or not they were successful, the Director may ask them to
play a dinosaur (see Narrating Death in this Section).
Non-Damaging Attacks
If there is an attack that does not deal damage, it may still
impair the recipient. These attacks cause Status Conditions,
noted below.
Status Condition
Status conditions are broken into Tier 1 and Tier 2
conditions, both causing the temporary loss of wound points.
Tier 1
Treat these conditions as "Wounded" until they recover, in
addition to the listed effects. It is up to the Director to
determine what Specialties each character is able to perform
while afflicted by a Status Condition.
It usually takes about ten minutes of medical treatment (a
successful Medicine toss) to recover from these conditions:
Blinded/Deafened: The character cannot Observe
Bound: The creature cannot Attack
Dazed: The character cannot Evade
Exhausted: The character cannot Sprint
Frightened: The character cannot Pace
Tier 2
These conditions are more serious, and are treated as
Unconcious until they recover or remedy the situation.
Asleep
Dead
Fully Restrained
Poisoned
Paralyzed
Distance
In the world of dinosaurs, distance doesn't need to be that
specific. It is mostly used to express how imminent a danger
is. Far Away means the threat is not yet here, Close means
you need to be wary of an encounter and Adjacent means that
a battle has already begun. These terms can be used to
describe distances between allies and objects as well.
Far Away
Over 400 feet away, no matter how far. You may want to
express the distance if the object or creature is far away,
saying it is up on the mountain ahead of you or somewhere
deep within the trees. Use the environment to long distance
perception. Only Sniper Rifles can hit at this distance.
Mid-Distance
Between 50 feet and 400 feet, enabling a battle scale where
creatures can charge for several turns in a row and those
with guns can fire at maximum range.
Close
Within 50 feet, approximately, and likely close enough to
make a ranged attack. This is about the maximum distance
that larger creatures will charge at, signaling an imminent
threat.
Adjacent
Right next to each other. You must be Adjacent to hit with any
Melee Weapon and striking with a Ranged Weapon can be
difficult. Few people come adjacent to any dinosaur and live
to tell the tale.
Use if your complexities as a director require another factor
for distance.
Adjacent Tactics
Here are two additional rules to use for melee combat with
creatures that are Large or smaller. These tactics don't work
on bigger opponents.
Flanking
Being on two sides of an enemy can have a significant
advantage in melee combat, for humans and dinosaurs alike.
If two allied combatants are flanking an enemy and making
melee attacks, a success from one combatant will mean
success for the other.
Surrounding
Similar to flanking, except that surrounding requires four
creatures (or eight to surround a large creature). The creature
cannot move, but it can make attacks. Any melee attack on
the creature means a success for all others performing a
melee attack on the creaure.
Size
There are six different size categories in this manual, though
almost every creature falls under Small, Medium, Large, or
Gigantic. The wound points in the description applies to
living things, as the total wound points of an object is
determined by the Director.
Miniature Anything that could easily fit in the palm of your
hand or smaller. Examples include mice, newborn raptors, or
an insect. They always have 1 wound point.
Small Cats, dogs, and other small animals fit into this
category. A child can often be categorized as small. If they are
not human, characters have 2 wound points if they are small.
Medium Humans represent the majority of this category.
They are usually around five or six feet tall and up to five
hundred pounds, though there is variation. Players have 3
wound points, but creatures of this category may have up to
10 wound points.
Large Many juvenile predators start this size before reaching
adulthood. Others are hefty herbivores, weighing up to five
tons. They span from 10 to 20 wound points.
Gigantic The largest of the prehistoric creatures, weighing
up to fifty tons and upwards of sixty feet tall. They can have
up to 35 wound points.
Colossal The Colossal Size exists mostly for Directors who
wish to augment Creature size (see section Creatures). While
they usually have upwards of 100 wound points, they can
have up to 1,000 wound points if the Director deems it
necessary.
Moments of Fate
Every player character (and maybe a sole main villain) has a
moment of fate. It turns any failed toss into a successful one,
once per film. After a player uses their Moment of Fate, they
must denote it by putting an "x" through the box. Each player
can use this abilIf the character manages to survive the film,
they acquire another Moment of Fate in their next Film.
If a player is unconcious, using a Moment of Fate delays
death for a single round, as they become untargetable. Some
Directors will grant their characters safe passage after a
Moment of Fate - others only turn back the ticking clock of
inevitable doom.
Theories
There is one hero type, the Theorist, that can ask the
Director yes or no questions. The Director must answer as
truthfully as possible: yes or no. If the Director cannot answer
the question, the Theorist does not expend their use of a
question for this film.
Designing a Story
Weaving a Plot
To come up with an idea for a film, you can draw on
inspiration from the films or books (detailed in Chapter 6,
Locations and Eras of Play). Or you can come up with a story
completely of your own design. It can fit the existing story or
tell a what-if scenario that has yet to happen.
Your story should hinge on a central goal or an shared
danger experienced by the entire group.
Creating a Scene
Once you have an idea, you must break your story down into
scenes. Each scene should challenge the players, giving them
a chance to fall victim to a crashing car or a violent dinosaur.
In creating your own Films, there are three main elements
for each Scene: Location, Obstacles and Threats. Over the
course of a scene, at least one of these three elements should
undergo a change.
Locations
Locations are initially used to define characters and where
they are coming from. In later scenes, location serves to
provide an interesting landscape for combat or interaction.
Write down some noteworthy details (you can also draw the
location or find a picture) to help the players imagine the
same thing you're thinking of - just a few bullet points per
location should suffice, so long as it is not an unusual place.
Then, if combat will likely occur, draw a rough sketch of your
battle location to have ready for the game. Not all scenes will
have combat, especially as the players first come together. If
you have time, you can make a second map for yourself with
all of the obstacles and threats marked.
Obstacles
Obstacles are secrets that you know that exist in the location.
Some obstacles are constant. Others have triggers, either
proximity or time. Most later scenes should have at least one
obstacle, unless the players are performing mundane tasks.
Use as many different types of obstacles as possible! The
variation helps to keep the obstacles interesting.
Fixed Obstacles
Fixed Obstacles are constant dangers. Their danger level may
rise or fall depending on the outcome of a scene, but they are
generally stationary. This includes things such as pits, lava,
walls, wires, branches, thickets and the like.
Proximity Obstacles
These are obstacles that go off when a player gets to close to
or touches a certain area, like a crumbling floor or an
overwhelming stech.
Timed Obstacles
Timed obstacles go off after a certain number of turns,
decided by the Director. It can be set off by a particular action
or start with the beginning of a new scene. Example include a
car crashing down from a tree or a security mechanism on a
security door.
Timed obstacles usually present the player with multiple
flips. The number of successes determines their result.
Threats
Threats refers to enemy humans and creatures. Even
herbivores can become threats by trampling or headbutting
players.
They should actually threaten the players! Threats are the
most likely things that cause player death and players are
supposed to die fairly often. Don't baby your players, put them
in real danger. That being said, be sure to balance your
threats, rather than constanly overwhelming the players. If
you need to, use impromptu Allies to quickly balance a fight.
Keep track of remaining wound points on a separate sheet so
that Threats can come in and out of the storyline if need be.
Allies
Sometimes, there are helpful people; other times,
potential threats can become allies in opportune
moments. Allies should not always be the reason
that players are saved, but it can help to go up
against larger Threats.
Rather than having an army swoop in every time,
introduce some characters that only the Director
controls. This gives you a way to communicate
with the players from within the world, without
having to interject as the Director.
Most importantly, there should be lasting
consequences for the Non-Player. Allies lose
something when they come to the rescue.
Assigning Missions
Missions are personal tasks that each player uses to guide
their choices. A player can come up with their own mission,
but must approve it by their Director. If a player accomplishes
their mission, they have "won", whether or not they survive.
When assigning missions, they should overlap the story in
some way, but avoid pitting all of the characters against each
other. It becomes boring if all the players solve their problems
by fighting to the death in the final scene. Rather, goals
should increase tension and drive character choices made
outside of combat.
See the Missions in the Adventure, The Animal Kingdom,
for examples of Missions and how to assign them.
Narrating
K
nown as "the art of describing things",
narrating helps to guide the collective
imagination in which this game is played. Too
little narration and it can be difficult for
everyone to have the same picture. Too much
detail and you spoil the fun with minute details
that just aren't relevant. This section helps you
to navigate that balance.
Setting
You should tell the players (as early as possible) what time
period they are playing in, to make sure their items fit with
the era. The location is not necessary to share with players. If
you decide to share information, it is best to keep it vague
until the character creation process is complete.
Scene
Not every player is going to be in every scene. Choose the
characters most appropriate to be together. Films usually
start with two or three scenes that start to bring all of the
characters together.
Locations
Start with the size of the building, then the size of the room, if
applicable. Describe the major features or relevant items, if
there are any. It's always helpful to describe rooms like Power
Plant Breaker Room or Dining Hall so that players have a
general idea of what miscellaneous items might be in there.
That way if a player asks Is there anything in this room that I
can throw?, you can make a decision.
Characters
In introducing Player characters, it's best to let them
introduce themselves in a sentence or two.
For non-player characters, you should describe a quirk that
makes the character identifiable if they are going to be
important, such as an injury, a physical trait, or a distinctive
voice.
Success
When characters succeed on a toss, it's important to narrate
the action that occurs. Describe the results of their success
and the events immediately following.
If any creature dies or is incapacitated, tell the players.
Failure
Tell the player what happens to them in their failure. Do they
fall unconcious? Lose a limb? Drop a weapon? Trip and fall
prone? There are limitless ways to punish a player for a
failure, don't be afraid to think creatively. Then, tell the player
how many wound points they lose.
For Specialties, be sure to narrate the consequences of
their failure. This determines whether or not they will be able
to try again.
Death
If a character happens to die, give them a chance to shine in
the spotlight as they meet their demise. The player may
embellish or add their own colorful details as you describe
their untimely death.
If the same player keeps dying despite their best efforts,
you may want to save that player with a Deus Ex Machina
from time to time. Have them wake up Wounded somewhere
else, having survived. Remember, it's the Director's job to
make sure that everyone is having a good time.
Social Encounters
Rather than just having them flip a coin, it's best to ask a
character what they say if they are making a Barter or an
Implore toss. How do they sell that Artifact for a little extra
gold? What is it that convinces the Pilot to come back for
them? This gives the players an extra opportunity to add their
own voice to the story.
Combat
Unless any party was surprised, the players usually start with
their, followed by the enemies. They take turns, having all the
players take an Action, then all the enemies take an Action. If
any player has a Companion, the Companion takes an action
immediately after that player.
This lasts until (a) one party is dead or surrendered, (b) the
two parties comes to a truce, (c) the players or enemies flee
combat and are no longer Close to each other.
Variant: Two-Action Combat
In order to speed up creature and player deaths,
you can have players take two actions each turn
instead of just one.
You may also dictate that they choose two
separate actions, rather than repeat the same
action twice.
Obstacles
Describe what the obstacle looks like before asking the
player to make a toss, usually Evade. If they fail, narrate the
injury to the player and tell them how many wound points
they lose.
Metagaming
All conversation must be done by characters who are in the
same location and able to converse, with the exception of the
Director. Any conversation about the game to a character who
is not in the same location is called "Metagaming" and it is
not allowed.
Your character is punishable by any means the Director
sees fit.
Chapter 6: Adventures

E
ach film has it's own storyline that guides
the choices of the characters and give
weight to their actions. If done correctly,
stories give players a meaningful way to
change the outcome of the film, as well as
an immersive world where players feel free
to explore what makes this film unique.

Creating your Film

Once your players have created their characters, the rest is
entirely up to the Director - use whatever creatures, traps, or
other perils that come to mind. You will also need to select a
time and place for your campaign to take place (options
presented on the next page). Experienced game masters may
enjoy creating storylines or layers of complications not
present in this manual.
If you do not feel up to the task of creating a film, use the
Adventures from this chapter.

ADVENTURE DIFFICULTY
Animal Kingdom Moderate
Site B Easy
Jurassic Park Moderate
The Lost World Difficult
Isla Tacano: The Nest Easy
Jurassic World Moderate
Isla Pena: Sea of Life Moderate
The Fallen Kingdom Difficult
Isla Muerta: Certain Death Difficult
Isla Mataceres: Paradise Lost Easy

Difficulty
Easier encounters are easier with small groups of players.
Difficult Adventures can "trim the herd" before it gets too
complicated.
Easy: Most characters will probably survive, though there
will likely be one or two casualties. Most players encounter
two to three obstacles.
Moderate: About half of the characters will survive. Most
players encounter three to five obstacles, some of which will
be immediately life-threatening.
Difficult: Most of the characters will die in the adventure.
Players encounters upwards of ten obstacles each. For many
obstacles, failure results in immediate death.
Custom Adventures
Each custom adventure is entirely up to the Director and may
or may not fit into the canon that exists within the films or
novels. The following is a list of the important dates and
places in the official Jurassic Park universe, if that is relevant
to your film.

Mentioned Characters
John Hammond - founder of Animal Kingdom and Jurassic
Park
Laura Sorkin - scientist working for Dr. Hammond
Henry Wu - scientist working for Dr. Hammond, then InGen
Locations
Nairobi, Africa - Animal Kingdom
There is not much known about John Hammond's Animal
Kingdom. It is presumed that he had time to amass all sorts
of animals from all over the world, but there are no dinosaurs
at this time. Muldoon serves as game warden for the park.
Isla Sorna (1982 - 1994)
The first official cloning facility for dinosaurs. See the
timeline for more information about what occurs at this
facility from 1982 - 1994. After the hurricane in 1994, the
facility is shut down.
Isla Sorna - The Lost World (1994 - ?)
After Hurricane Clarissa hit the island in 1994, Isla Sorna
quickly became a free-reign landscape where the largest
predators took charge. All dinosaurs are available to use.
Isla Nubar - Jurassic Park (1988 - 1993)
Many of the facilities of the Park can be seen in the original
film: carnivore enclosures, electric fences, safety vehicles,
guided tour, hatchery, etc. They also have a research lab and
marine facility, run by Dr. Laura Sorkin. All buildings are
evacuated in 1993 when the events of Jurassic Park occur. In
1994, desconstruction of the park begins.
Isla Nubar - Jurassic World (2005 - 2015)
The widely successful theme park had a good run of things
from 2005 until 2015, with few major incidents. This location
can be used for minor incidents in the early years of
operation, or for the events of Jurassic World in 2015.
Isla Nubar - Fallen Kingdom (2015 - ?)
With the imminent eruption of Mount Sibo, panic ensues
across the dino species on the island. Elsewhere, dinosaurs
arrive on the mainland - extending this location to...
anywhere, really.
Isla Tacano - The Nest
Full of cliffs and mountainsides, this island was inhabited by
Pteranodons leaving Isla Sorna, and later Dimorphodons.
While flying species are not usually agressive, a lack of
avaible nesting ground has created territorial tendencies.
Isla Pena - Sea of Life
This swampy island is the perfect breeding ground for all
marine-dwelling dinosaurs - in rivers, lakes and oceans alike.
Isla Muerta - Isle of Death
Isla Muerta is flooded with dinosaurs over the years. Hybrids
and genetic experiments have escaped to the island as well,
making it the most dangerous place for a campaign. There
are no safe zones here.
Isla Matanceros - Paradise Lost
One of the most isolated islands, Isla Matanceros has the
least dinosaur activity of the archipelago. Of the species on
the island, they are almost entirely herbivores or pescivores
(like Pteranodons) - including pygmy versions of recognizable
dinosaurs. The main land predators are Spinosaurs, who
swam long distances from other islands.
Adventure 1: The Animal Kingdom

Y
ou are on an trip to visit Animal Kingdom,
established in 1969. In a beat-up car or a
threadbare plane, you embark to the most
expansive wildlife preserve ever known. The
creatures here are not dinosaurs, and there is
nothing but normal beasts to see.
Some of you have saved up for months for this vacation,
others found yourselves fortunate enough to receive a ticket
from the man himself - Dr. John Hammond. Some even work
at the Park itself, tending to the grounds or the animals.
No matter the reason, you are off to enjoy an early summer
day at Animal Kingdom. It's practically a paradise...
Limitations on Technology
Nothing made after 1985. No cell phones or laptops. The
majority of automatic weapons are difficult to get, but hunting
rifles can be worn by Park Rangers.
What to Expect
A day at an intense safari. There will be vehicles to take you
all over the park, but some walking will also be required.
At the park, there are five different zones. Each spans
hundreds of miles, sometimes requiring rigorous
landscaping.
There is the Savannah, native to this region. Expect African
beasts such as Elephants, Gazelles, Lions, and Zebras.
This leads to the Coastline, miles of fenced off sea and coast
alike. There are hundreds of species in the water, but it
requires a guide and Scuba equipment. While primarily
composed of fish, shellfish, coral, jellyfish and other various
small sea creatures, there is a pack of dolphins that roams.
A massive greenhouse serves as the Jungle zone. In it are
jungle-dwellers from all over the globe, like crocodiles, frogs,
reptiles, and the occasional big cat.
The mountainous slope has been reforested, dubbed the
Forest zone for obvious reasons. Here there are threats as
big as bears, but also deer, raccoons, squirrels and other
innocuous creatures.
Lastly is the Arctic zone, far up the mountain. The only way
up is a ski lift. There are penguins, polar bears, winter foxes,
voles and other snow-dwelling beasts.
How you Arrived
Pick one of the following methods:
Drove a private vehicle
Took a plane
Took a bus

Director Information:
Animal Kingdom
Here is all the information you'll need to run the Animal
Kingdom Adventure. Once again, I'd like to stress that this
section is for DIRECTORS ONLY. It is recommended that
players don't read the adventure their about to play. However,
knowing the story does not necessarily make it unenjoyable,
if you play your character to what they know in each scene.

Characters
Dr. John Hammond - Evenutally the eccentric host of
Jurassic park, the middle-aged scientist currently owns
Animal Kingdom.
Robert Muldoon - The quiet, lifelong hunter and game
warden of the Animal Kingdom.
Jenny Li - VIP tour guide at the park
Patricia Allbright - Staff Doctor at Animal Kingdom
Juan Pablo Escondido - Goes by Pablo, drives the tram
Scene 1 - Foreshadowing
A squirrel sits idly in the forest, harvesting nuts and berries.
Bushes and trees rustle in the wind, coupled with a low
growl...
In an instant the squirrel is gone, leaving a fresh trail of
blood on the forest floor.
Scene 2 - Arrival
Your characters may arrive all together or in batches. Either
way, describe how they got to the Animal Kingdom. If some
groups end up taking the same plane, you can have them
introduce themselves using their character names. Guests
may also drive from Nairobi to get there.
The Host, Dr. John Hammond (or an associate, if a player
is playing the part) introduces themselves as the park: Animal
Kingdom - A World of Its Own!
Scene 3 - First Split
A guided tour starts in the Park Center. All those who would
like to go should gather up with Jenny Li, VIP tour guide for
the park. It will go through each of the five sections of the
park in an Armored group vehicle. This group becomes
Group A.
Guests may sit out of the tour, opting to look around the
visitor's center instead. This group becomes Group C
Scene 4 - Initial tension
Group A: Take the Tour
The tram is organized in four sections, each with 4 seats.
Muldoon, the Game Warden, sits in the last car and prefers
to sit alone. The middle two cars are empty. Pablo, the driver,
and Jenny sit in the first car. She occasionally narrates over
the walkie talkie system, describing the area or type of
animals they might see.
Characters have some time to talk to each other.
The tire blows out before they can get to the Jungle section.
When Jenny gets out to check on it, she twists an ankle.
Who wants to walk to get help? They stay as Group A.
Who wants to stay? They become Group B.
Group C: Stay at the Visitor's Center
The Host is excited to have only a few people in the visitor's
center and starts bringing things out to display. He starts by
bringing out a trained panther.
Characters have some time to talk to each other.
Next, the Host brings out a White Rhino, just a baby. A
successful Creature Lore toss will tell you that White Rhinos
are endangered, and that seeing a baby is extremely rare. If
they ask the Host about it, he responds by saying he made it
through a DNA extraction process. Then he takes them to see
a Casteroides, a formerly extinct form of giant beaver (use the
stats for a bear). Another Creature Lore toss will tell you its
extinct before the Host can say it. The Casteroides snaps and
snarls in confined chambers.
Scene 5 - First Obstacle
Group A: Get Help
This group starts walking back with Pablo, but eventually
they have to cross electric wires or jump into the river below.
If anyone fails, they take 2 wound points and start a fire. If no
one fails, skip to scene 8 and join Group C.
That fire, in turn, causes a Stampede. Each person will
need to make an evade toss, jumping into a river below. Take
a wound point on a failure.
They can also try to brave the stampede - each person will
need to make 3 evade tosses, taking a wound point on each
failure (skip to Scene 8 and join Group C).
Group B: Stay Behind
A successful Medicine toss will heal Jenny. They notice the
fire, if started. It gives everyone the chance to Observe to look
for the approaching Lion.
If the fire was not started, the Lion gets to attack for free.
Choose a slow-moving target.
Mulddon yells at everyone to get inside the Jungle Zone.
Group C: Stay at Visitor's Center
The baby Rhino has shattered a few glass objects around
the room, injuring itself in the process. The staff doctor, Dr.
Patricia Allbright, comes to treat the rhino. A player can
assist with a successful Medicine toss. The Rhino shrieks in
pain.
The doctor needs to transport the Rhino to a nearby
animal hospital.
Scene 6 - Second Obstacle
Group A: Into the River
Sprint out with a single toss, but take 2 wound points on a
failure. Or win two out of three tosses of Pace, taking a
wound point on each failure after the first.
Group B: Escape the Lion
Muldoon leads the expedition through the Jungle Corridor.
A jaguar cub lurks, but Muldoon shoots a tranquilizer dart at
it (either suppressing it or scaring it off). While Muldoon
reloads, a snake bites him, wounding him. A successful
Medicine toss prevents him from falling unconcious.
Group C: Stampede?
They move the Rhino onto the truck. If the fire was started
earlier, a stampede rampages through. Each person will need
to make 3 evade tosses, taking a wound point on each failure.
If the fire was not started, skip to the Scene 7 and remain
in Group C.
Scene 7 - Respite
Group A: Coast
They wind up on a grassy beach. Any characters that
survive slowly make their way to conciousness, but are still
wounded. They have time to talk, to plan, or to use any
Specialties they think might be helpful.
Group B: Doorway
Outside the jungle doors, the players relax a little after
waving at some security cameras. They are in the mountain
section now, and must travel along the fence to reach the
park entrance. The tall woods provide a little shelter and
security.
Group C: Recover
One person can be seen by the staff Doctor. If no one can
make a decision, Hammond decides who needs to be seen.
That player heals two wound points. Other medical assistants
are tending to other guests.
Scene 8 - Monsters
Group A: Bear
Nearby, the survivors hear something feeding. Just around
the cove, a bear feeds off fish. It smells them and looks over.
It charges.
Any player that tries to outswim it must make two
successful sprint checks, taking a wound point on each
failure. Any player that dives underwater makes a toss to hold
their breath. A success means no damage.
Any player that runs towards the land must make a sprint
check. A success means you make it to the forest, a failure
means your character takes 2 wound points (if no one saves
you, you will die). If someone dies here, the others can run. If
no one has died, you must climb a tree (sprint or pace) to
avoid another attack from the bear. Then, if everyone is still
alive, a pack of lionnesses come to fight the bear, allowing the
characters a chance to escape (no flip required).
If the Rescue Team has no one else to save, you ride back
with them to the Visitor Center. If not, you are last to arrive.
Group B: Cats
Traveling through the mountains, this group passes a huge
hole in the fence. There is an eerie silence - the absence of
birds.
If they decide to pass through the hole, they encounter the
lion on the plain, dealing 2 wound points each attack. They
join up with Group C below.
If they stay on their side of the fence, a pack of three
jaguars gets a surprise attack on the weakest target, dealing a
wound point (no flip required). Then they continue to attack
weak targets, each one doing a single wound point each time.
If you went through the hole, you travel back with Group C
to the Visitor Center. If not, you are last to arrive.
Group C: Rhino
Taking the last available vehicle - essentially an Animal
Ambulance shuttle carrying the baby Rhino - takes all willing
adults on a rescue mission. If Dr. Allbright is attempting to
treat someone, they are scrunched in the back next to a baby
Rhinoceres. They find some charred bits of land near an
overlook (maybe finding survivors of the stampede, see
Scene 5), so Hammond exits the car. A Rhino approaches,
friendly at first. A successful Communication toss will tell the
players that he views the baby as a threat. He charges the car,
rolling it on the first hit and dealing 2 wound points (an
Evade toss will avoid the damage). Players have a chance to
Sprint to save someone before the second charge. A failure
for them, or anyone still in the car, takes 2 wound points and
falls over the cliff and into the river, likely to their death (see
river in Scene 6).
If you save no one, then you spend your time waiting and
come back as the "Last Ones to Arrive at Visitor's Center".
Scene 9 - The Final Threat
First Ones to Arrive at Visitor's Center:
Whoever makes it back to the visitor center first gets a
chance to rest. All Unconcious characters return to Wounded
status. Hammond talks about certain species across the park
being wiped out. The roaming animals would render species
extinct, which forced other predators to roam. It's not true
nature this way, he concedes.
The Casteroides (Giant Beaver) roams behind them,
picking at corpses. Observe toss to notice it before it attacks.
Give the animal the same stats as a bear and fight the
players.
Last Ones to Arrive at Visitor's Center: As they hurry to the
Visitor's Center, they are ambushed by two lionesses. They
can fight them, but-
As soon as the lionesses meet the Casteroides, they begin
to fight each other. This gives everyone the chance to run and
escape Animal Kingdom.
Scene 10 - Aftermath
Work with each player to determine what their character
does after the conclusion of the story. If they accomplished
their mission, usually something good happens to their
character. If they fail their mission, usually their luck turns
the other way.
Those whose characters are dead must be prepared with a
new character for the next mission. Characters who survived
usually gain a new Item, among other things. Reward players
with Items, Specialties, Director Characters (working as
Allies), changes to the Goldblum Scale or anything else you
find fitting.
Chapter 7: Creatures and Humans

C
reatures is a generic terms that represents two
main categories: Dinosaurs and beasts.
Dinosaurs is a term for any prehistoric that has
been cloned into existence, including any hybrids.
Beasts are natural animals that could be found in
the wild or hybrids of natural animals.
In this chapter, you'll find information about creatures,
including how to play as them, how to modify them, and their
basic structure as an enemy. At the end, you'll find templates
for quick Director Characters.
Playing as a Creature
If your character dies early, the Director may ask you to play
as a Creature, all of a sudden, in the middle of a scene. If that
happens, you must play the creature as naturally as possible.
Every creature plays by instincts: survive and - for
carnivores - that means hunting. Here are the most important
aspects ofabout playing a creature:
1) You may not communicate with anyone outside of your
species, unless you have the Communication trait. Any
interspecies communication should be done secretly (either
in another room, written communication, or texting) if any
human players are present.
2) Dinosaurs always attack the target listed in their section.
The targets are: Biggest Threat, Bleeding Target, Blinded
Target, Closest Target, Isolated Target, Non-threatening
Target, Submerged Target, Threatening Target, Unaware
Target, and Water Adjacent Target. For more information
on those, see "Targets" on the next page.
3) Dinosaurs fall unconcious with 1 wound point remaining,
just like humans. At 0 wound points, they die. You may be
asked to play another Creature if the opportunity arises.
Creature Campaign
As a director, you may choose to do a film where your players
play the dinosaurs. This will require some adjustments on
the core Character Creation setup:
No Hero - In this campaign, you cannot choose a Hero
(unless your crazy Director insists). Even intelligent
dinosaurs generally do not take up occiupation.
No Specialties - All creatures can take Actions (Attack,
Evade, Observe, Pace and Sprint), but most cannot perform
specialties. Use the information from this section to be your
guide for any other information you need. If a creature has
the trait Intelligence, it may gain one Specialty.
No Items - Creatures do not have the required opposable
thumbs to hold or use items. Again, this rule may be bent
according to the discretion of the Director, especially those
with Intelligence.
Difficult Communication - All species can communicate
amongst themselves. Only dinosaurs with Intelligence can
communicate across species. This can make it difficult if
interacting with a lot of humans (in a manner other than
eating them).
Sample Creature
Brief description of the creature
Size: How big the creature is
Wound Points: Amount of times the creature can be hit
Speed: Approximate land speed in miles per hour
Alternative Speed: in miles per hour
Target: who to attack if playing a Dinosaur
Attack: Type of Attack (damage to target)
Group: Family or Pack
Where to Find Them: On Isla Sorna after 1997 or Isla
Nubar from 2005 onward.
Size
This information also presented under Directing the Game.
Miniature Anything that could easily fit in the palm of your
hand or smaller. Examples include mice, newborn raptors, or
an insect. They always have 1 wound point.
Small Cats, dogs, and other small animals fit into this
category. A child can often be categorized as small. If they are
not human, characters have 2 wound points if they are small.
Medium Humans represent the majority of this category.
They are usually around five or six feet tall and up to five
hundred pounds, though there is variation. Players have 3
wound points, but creatures of this category may have up to
10 wound points.
Large Many juvenile predators start this size before reaching
adulthood. Others are hefty herbivores, weighing up to five
tons. They span from 10 to 20 wound points.
Gigantic The largest of the prehistoric creatures, weighing
up to fifty tons and upwards of sixty feet tall. They can have
up to 35 wound points.
Colossal The Colossal Size exists mostly for Directors who
wish to augment Creature size (see section Creatures). While
they usually have upwards of 100 wound points, they can
have up to 1,000 wound points if the Director deems it
necessary.
Wound Points
Wound points are the creatures total health. Attacks will
usually drain 1 or 2 wound points at a time, depending on
whether they are basic or advanced. At 1, creatures fall
unconcious. At 0, they die.
Speed
Alternative Speed includes things like Burrowing Speed,
Flying Speed or Swimming Speed.
Targets
When playing a dinosaur, targets dictate who you attack,
unless a creature has Intelligence.
  Biggest Threat: closest or creature with a big weapon
Bleeding Target: any creature that has lost wound points
Blinded Target: any blinded creature
Closest Target: closest creature that is still alive
Isolated Target: any creature that is not close to any allies
Non-threatening Target: any weaponless creature
Submerged Target: any creature in water
Threatening Target: any approaching or armed creature
Unaware Target any creature that does not detect you
Water Adjacent Target: any creature next to water
Attacks
Creatures have different methods for dealing attacks, but
these are all essentially the same unless the creature is
somehow restricted. Some may Bite while others may Claw,
but they are lethal no matter the type.
All creatures, even gentle herbivores, have the capability to
fight back. Instead of listing this individually, use the
trampling table from below to detmerine damage when a
creature does not have an attack.
Trampling
All trampling damage is dealt in wound points according to
the following table:
MEDIUM LARGE GIGANTIC
TRAMPLE TRAMPLE TRAMPLE
DAMAGED
CREATURE
Large -       -              2
Medium -       1              4
Small 1         2         DEATH
Colossal creatures instantly kill anything Medium or smaller,
dealing 10 wound points every attack (Crush).
Group
How many of the creatures are usually present at a time. The
Directors story may dictate otherwise.
  Solo - just one
Family - two parents and children
Pack - two to five families
Herd - up to the hundreds of creatures
Where to Find Them
