OG Turok Review

Unlike the N64 original games and the 2008 Turok reboot , which were pretty intense FPS games , Turok: Escape from Lost Valley is a cute, hand-drawn isometric shooter with a focus on mastering Turok’s knife and bow, rather than a collection of grisly weapons. Sorry, looks like you won’t be getting your hands on the Cerebral Bore in this one.Travelling with your friend Andar, as Turok you’ll need to find you way through the dinosaur-infested Lost Valley and find your way home. Along the way you’ll help natives and fight bosses with such fun names as ‘Killer Honker’, ‘Giant Bear’, and ‘Long Neck Water Honker’.The game, which has been developed by Pillow Pig Games, comes from Universal Studios Interactive Entertainment, and was created as part of the Universal Gamedev Challenge, which saw 550 indie developers compete to create games based on Universal’s portfolio of game IPs. Turok: Escape from Lost Valley was awarded the runner-up prize of $20,000.The grand prize was awarded to puzzle strategy game Voltron: Cubes of Olkarion from Gbanga, which received $150,000 and a year-long consulting contract with Universal Games. Both it and Turok: Escape from Lost Valley have a release date of July 25, and are currently listed on Steam as PC games . There is no word so far as to if it will be available on consoles.To see how much things have changed, take a look at our Turok review from 1997, when dinosaur hunting was much more Doom-like.
