in the career mode, the player's goal is to develop five-star parks across the fictional islands of the las cinco muertes archipelago. dr. ian malcolm assists players throughout the game. players will meet other key figures representing the three branches of the park's development: entertainment, security, and science. each of these characters tries to convince players to develop the park in accordance with their advice. they give players "contracts" to complete which include a series of goals and objectives. these contracts add narrative to the game, as well as provide rewards and reputation in their respective domains. players are advised to keep a close eye on their reputation within each division. if a player's reputation within a division gets too low, that creates a sabotage in the player's park that will need to be attended to immediately. for instance, the park's power could be shut down allowing dinosaurs to break out, or a disease could be introduced to infect them. these divisions all feed into the parks' ratings. the five islands, each with different characteristics and challenges, will gradually unlock with sufficient positive park ratings.
