Last night, I came up with a fun idea for Nublar sandboxers.
Try to create a version of the park based on the list of dinosaurs present in the Michael Chricton's original version of the park from the novel.
I haven't started the challenge yet myself but here's a list for everyone to work with:
• Tyrannosaurus - 2
• Maiasaurs - 21
• Stegosaurus - 4
• Triceratops - 8
• Procomsognathids - 49 (as of the JP update)
• Othnielia - 16 (if you use dinos from the '-Mimus' family as placeholders)
• Deinonychus/Velociraptors - 8 (or 37 if you want to have a bad time)
• Apatosaurus/Camarasaurus - 17
• Hadrosaurus/Edmontosaurus/Parasaurolophus - 11
• Dilophosaurus - 7
• Pterosaurs - 6
• Hypsilophodontids - 33 (if you use dinos from the '-Mimus' family as placeholders)
• Euoplocephalus (anything in the ankylosaurid family) - 16
• Styracosaurus - 18
• Microceratops - 22 (Homalocephales as placeholders?)
Personally, I'm planning on taking on this self-imposed challenge because I want to see if its possible to actually make a Jurassic Park with the space available.
Some of the alternate dinosaur choices are based on what dinosaurs are available in the game in relation to their relatives from the book.
For example, while the Hadrosaurus isn't in the game, the Edmontosaurus is their closest relative both biological and physically.
As for the option of having the Deinonychus instead of the Velociraptors, the versions of the raptors featured in the book were based on the Deinonychus more than the raptors so I thought it was worth noting since the game even took the time to acknowledge this detail by including Grant's raptor quote from the first film when releasing your first Deinonychus.
In regards to the Euoplocephalus note, anything in the ankylosaurid family includes:
• Ankylosaurus
• Crichtonsaurus
• Chungkingosaurus
• Huayangosaurus
• Nodosaurus
I know a lot of people are busy trying to make the parks from the films but, why not take a step further by creating InGen's list from the novel
I'll be looking forward to seeing both what people think of this challenge as well as screenshots of what they manage to create!

"Any creature whose name means "terrible claw" is one that should be given respect. That's what you have there...a Deinonychus."
