Jurassic World Evolution 3 Tips - Keeping Your Dinos (and Guests) Mostly Alive

Alright, so you've signed up to manage a park full of prehistoric nightmares in Jurassic World Evolution 3. Someone's gotta do it, I guess. Here are a few pointers to avoid too many containment breaches and guest snack-cidents.

You're basically juggling construction, dino-wrangling, and trying not to get sued into oblivion. It’s a lot, so maybe these tips will keep your disaster counter slightly lower than usual.

Use Blueprints, You Lazy Genius

If meticulously placing every bench feels like too much effort (and let's be real, it often is), blueprints are your best friend. Slap down some pre-made designs or grab something fancy from the Frontier Workshop that some other poor sod spent hours perfecting. You can even save your own genius layouts and share them, if you're feeling generous.

Unleash Your Inner Architect (or Tyrant)

For the control freaks among us, the modular building tools are where it's at. Start with blank core modules and slap on the bits and bobs needed to make them actually do something. Don't sweat the bumpy ground; slapping down modules or asphalt auto-levels the terrain, saving you one headache at least.

Get Creative with Containment (Natural Enclosures)

Those environment brushes aren't just for making things pretty. Use the terrain tool to sculpt hills and cliffs that might act as natural barriers. Waterfalls look nice and can stop land dinos – just don't blame me when a Pteranodon flies over it. It adds visual flair while serving a purpose, kind of.

Gotta Catch 'Em All (Synthesize Diverse Dinos)

Variety is the spice of life, and also the key to park appeal. Send those scientists out on expeditions to grab more DNA. You need a decent chunk of a species' genome before you can synthesize both males and females – essential info if you plan on using the new breeding mechanics. Some scenarios demand a minimum species count, so keep hatching different nightmares to keep the appeal rating up.

Delegate, Delegate, Delegate (Manage Your Staff)

You can't fix every broken fence or tranquilize every rampaging Carno yourself. Build Paleo-Medical, Maintenance, and Support facilities. Crucially, make sure these teams have fuel and resources. You can automate responses to breakouts, damage, and illness, but only if the teams aren't running on empty.

Safety Third? No, First. Definitely First.

Protecting guests from dinosaurs, and dinosaurs from other dinosaurs, is surprisingly important for business. Escaped attractions tend to lower your star rating – who knew? Plaster the place with security cameras covering enclosures. Keep an eye on species with aggressive traits; they're your likely escape artists. Once a camera spots trouble, Capture teams get notified to bring the tranquilizer darts. If a fence is down, get Maintenance on it before you return Mr. Chompy to his pen.

Boost That Appeal (It's All About the Money)

Success means ticket sales. More appeal equals more guests equals more cash. Build cool attractions, make sure guests can actually see the dinosaurs you've spent millions on, and definitely invest in baby dinos. Juveniles are massive appeal boosters, just make sure you're ready for the chaos they bring (seriously, read that breeding guide).
