Jurassic Park: The Game is an episodic graphic adventure video game based on the Jurassic Park film franchise. The game was developed by Telltale Games as part of a licensing deal with Universal Pictures. The plot of the game takes place during and after the plot of the first film. The game was originally announced in June 2010 before being revealed in the February issue of Game Informer. The first episode was expected for release in April 2011, but was pushed back to November 15 along with the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 release, resulting in a multi-platform release with all four episodes at once.

The game begins with Gerry Harding (voiced by Jon Curry), the park's chief veterinarian and Sarah Harding's father, showing his daughter Jess (voiced by Heather Hudson), Sarah's younger sister, around the park. At this time, Dennis Nedry puts his plan into motion to shut down the park's security and escape with stolen dinosaur embryos, hidden inside a canister of shaving cream. Later, his two contacts, Nima Cruz (voiced by Nika Futterman) and Miles Chadwick (voiced by Jared Emerson-Johnson), realize he is late to meet them at the boat to take them off the island and head into the park. After getting past the deactivated fences, they find Nedry's Jeep, and his body. They manage to find the embryo canister as well, but after getting the Jeep down, they are attacked by a pack of Dilophosaurus. Chadwick is killed, but before they can kill Nima, she retrieves the embryo canister and a handgun from Chadwick's body and speeds the Jeep in reverse, killing some of the Dilophosaurus before the rest flee, but is then attacked and bitten by an unknown dinosaur. She leaves the disabled Jeep behind and flees into the jungle.

Meanwhile, Harding and Jess make their way to the port and come across Nima, who is now delirious from the bite and needs medical attention. The three of them begin driving back to the Visitor's Center, but are delayed by a juvenile Triceratops blocking the road. They manage to get the dinosaur back into its enclosure, but the alpha-female Triceratops named "Lady Margaret" appears and attacks their Jeep, which also attracts the Tyrannosaurus rex. The trio barely manage to escape, hiding in a maintenance shed as the two dinosaurs fight, and deciding to spend the night inside. The next morning, Dr. Laura Sorkin (voiced by Susan Cash), a park scientist who became trapped in a field research lab due to the storm destroying the access road, sees Harding, Jess and Nima on a security feed, and sends one of the automated tour vehicles to their location to pick them up. The three reach the Visitor's Center unaware that the surviving cast of the movie have just fled the island minutes before. Once inside, Harding hears a radio trying to contact them. Locating it, he speaks with Dr. Sorkin, who helps cure Nima of her ailment using a tranquilizer dart. The T. rex attacks once again, forcing the trio to avoid it as best they can, eventually managing to lure it away with the tour vehicle. The three regroup back inside the Visitor's Center, but when mention of a rescue is made, Nima pulls her gun on the Hardings and tells them there will not be a rescue.
