II. Storyline
 From the Desk of John Hammond: My Dear Alan,
 Without your help, my restructuring work over the last year would have been 
impossible-simply impossible I say! Your paleontological consultancy, along 
with Doctor Sattler's, has been invaluable.  We've re-analyzed all of the 
flora and fauna selections,(some of which were clearly incompatible) and I 
believe we're ready to get Jurassic Park back on line!
 Now, Unfortunately, we've run into a bit of a snag.  You see, I've sent over 
a team of experts (heavily armed, of course) to asses the situation and to 
sort out the mess with the beasts running loose and all...and, well, things 
have gotten chaotic, I'm afraid.  Seems that insufferable Malcom was right.  
The computers were down, dinosaurs running loose-reproducing-nearly 
populated the entire island.  My people had their hands quite full, I can 
tell you.  But that's not all...
 Well, Alan, you remember BioSyn, don't you? That blasted competing 
corporation that tried to steal dinosaur embryos a year ago?  They're 
back-must have gotten wind that I was trying to start up the park again.  This 
time they've decided to take over Jurassic Park themselves.  They've got armed 
forces on Isla Nublar, along with their geneticists and engineers, trying 
to download the park's mainframe and steal all of my dinosaur cloning 
research.
 Alan, I need your help.  You're familiar with the island.  You know the 
dinosaurs.  Most importantly you know how dangerous this information could 
be if it ends up in the wrong hands.  I need you to protect the animals and 
the secrets of Jurassic Park.  I have authorized Tactical Sergeant Michael 
Wolfskin to accompany you-he's a good hand in a fight.  And I know you'll 
have a fight ahead of you-but please be careful.  Those creatures are 
extremely expensive-possible irreplaceable-you must keep them safe.  Except 
for the Velociraptors and the Tyrannosaur-those two have proven themselves 
to be unsafe as well as financially unfeasible to keep on the island.  
Eliminate them if necessary, but take care of the others-and yourselves of 
course.  Good luck.  Give my regards to Ellie.
 Sincerely John Hammond.

III. Basics
 a. Options Screen
    Difficulty Settings: There is a different ending for each game 
setting-Easy, Normal and Hard.  To maximize gameplay, be sure to check them 
all out. Playing in the Normal game mode has one additional mission; playing 
in the Hard mode has two additional missions.
    Define Keys: If you don't like the controls, you can change them to suit 
your preferences.
    Energy Equaling:(For two player games only) If this is turned on, the 
player with the most energy has the option of giving some of their energy 
to their partner.
 b. Controls
    Use the Control Pad to move in different directions. Press the Y button 
to fire in the direction you are facing.  Press down to fire low or duck. 
Press up in front of a door or another part of the park to enter it.  Press 
the Select button to equalize energy between the two players.  Use the start 
button to pause and unpause the game. Use the Y button to fire your selected 
weapon. Press the B button to jump. If you're hanging on a pipe or vine press 
down and B to drop to the ground. Use the X button to dodge an attack.  Use 
the L button to select from your three lethal weapons-use these to stop the 
BioSyn task force or dangerous dinos.  Use the R button to select from your 
three non-lethal weapons-These have no effect on humans, but will slow or 
stop dinosaurs without destroying them.
 c. Screen Layout
    Selected Weapon: Use the L and R buttons to select a weapon
    Ammunition: How many shots you have left in your selected weapon.
    Health Bar: The amount of health you have remaining. If it drops to zero 
you will have to being the mission form the beginning.
    Stock Level: How many dinosaurs are left on Isla Nublar.  Over time, the 
number of dinosaurs will slowly increase due to natural reproduction.  
Destroying Raptors or the Tyrannosaur will not affect your Stock Level.  
Remember, destroy dinos only when you have to-if you destroy too many there 
won't be enough to survive and the game will end.
    Time:(Only in Emergency Missions) Time remaining to finish the current 
mission.  If you do not complete a timed mission by the time this counter 
hits zero, the current mission will end.
 d. Weapons
    Lethal Weapons: Use these to incapacitate members of the BioSyn task 
force.  You can also sue them on Raptors, the Tyrannosaur, but don't use these 
on other dinos or your Stock Level will go down.
    1. Rifle: Your standard weapon.  It does the least amount of damage but 
works well against smaller enemies and you have infinite rounds with it.
    2. Machine Gun: A rapid-fire weapon that is more effective than the rifle, 
but uses ammo much more quickly.  Remember, ammo doesn't grow on trees-if 
you run out, you'll have to look around for some more.
    3. Shotgun: Your most effective weapon, it fires a wide spread that will 
stop some enemies with a single hit.
    Non-Lethal Weapons: Use these to subdue dinos without permanently 
injuring them. These weapons have no effect on humans.
    1. Cattle Prod: A high-voltage electric weapon.  Hold down the Y button 
to charge the cattle prod, then release to fire a stun bolt.  The longer you 
charge, the greater the bolt's range.  The cattle prod will never run out 
of ammunition.
    2. Tranquilizer Gun: A rapid-fire tranquilizer weapon best used for 
smaller dinosaurs.
    3. Tranquilizer Missile Launcher: Your most powerful non-lethal weapon.  
Shoots a stun gas missile which releases a cloud of gas that can affect more 
than one dino in an area.  *Note*-The cloud of gas can affect you for some 
odd reason but not other humans.
    4. 4th Non-Lethal Weapon: This weapon is obtained after the fourth 
emergency mission and comes without any ammo which means that you'll have 
to pick some up.  It is stronger than the Tranq. Missile Launcher and releases 
a larger cloud of gas.
 e. Pick-Ups
    Health: Pick up to refill your health bar.
    Ammunition: Select the weapon you want to add ammunition to before 
picking up the ammo clip. Picking up an ammo clip fully load the selected 
weapon.
    Power Supply: These will come in handy to power the incubators-obviously 
batteries were not included.
    Key Card: Use this to open locked doors. *Note* These are NEVER used in 
the game.

IV. The Missions
    Once you begin a game, you have the option of completing your missions 
in any order.  When the Mission Screen appears, use the Control Pad to move 
up and down the missions, then use the Start button to begin a mission.  At 
the start of each mission, you will receive a mission briefing outlining your 
objectives.  Press any button to continue the message.  Use the control pad 
to accept or abort the mission.  After selecting, press any button to continue.  
Six missions are shown at the start of the game.
    -Raptor Attack: Deal with dangerous Velociraptors in the underground 
power complex.  The only way out is to find the building's security system, 
gas the entire complex, and get out as fast as you can.
    -T-Rex Carnage: BioSyn engineers have left the Tyrannosaur loose form 
it's paddock.  You don't think it's still mad about you getting away last 
time, do you Dr. Grant?  Make your way carefully through the dense 
jungle-Raptors are everywhere!
    -Blockade: The BioSyn task force has taken over the park's control room 
and they're attempting to download all the cloning data from the main computer.  
You must find a way around the guards at the main entrance, the stop BioSyn 
from erasing Hammond's most dangerous discoveries.
    -High Ptera: Communications with the mainland have been cut off.  You 
must climb to the top of Nublar Mont to repair the damaged radio antenna.  
Unfortunately, the BioSyn guards know you're coming and the Pterodactyls 
think you're after their eggs.
    -Seek and Destroy: Where are all these Raptors coming from? They must 
be breeding somewhere, and the warmest, most out-of-the-way areas are in 
volcanic caverns deep below the jungle.  Find the Raptor nest, plant the 
explosives, and get out before the blast destroys you.  Watch out for flying 
Dimorphodons, collapsing bridges, and falling lava.
    -Protect the Gallimimus: BioSyn's genetic engineers are capturing and 
performing experiments on the ostrich-like Gallimimus.  You must stop their 
commandos and free the gentle creatures before BioSyn destroys or airlifts 
out every one!  Two other bits of advice: don't step on the land mines and 
keep an eye out for bomb-dropping choppers.
    -As you complete each mission an emergency mission will appear that you 
must complete before you can choose one of the main missions.

V. Hints and Tips
 a. Learn the attack pattern of dinosaurs. If you know the timing you can 
easily avoid Raptors by jumping over them.
 b. Don't waste ammo.
 c. Learn the quickest route to your mission goal.
 d. In two player games, don't get too far away from your partner.
 e. Raptors come in three strengths. Green Raptors are the easiest to take 
down. Light brown/red raptors are a little harder to take down.  Gray/dark 
brown Raptors are the strongest and take # fully charged cattle prod shots 
to be taken down on the easy difficulty level.
