Chaos theory, at its core, is simply a mathematical view and model in which anything can end up drastically different within a dynamic system. Or as one Dr. Ian Malcolm once said: “The shorthand is the butterfly effect. A butterfly can flap its wings in Beijing and in Central Park you get rain instead of sunshine.”

That said, you’ll be hearing a lot from Dr. Ian Malcom in Jurassic World Evolution, as the actor portraying him, Jeff Goldblum, reprises his famous role once more. Also appearing are other talent, such as Bryce Dallas Howard, who appears as Claire Dearing from Jurassic World and the upcoming Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. From the moment you start Evolution, however, you’ll be greeted with an introduction from by Dr. Malcom as he goes on to say: “So, before you are the islands that you need to manage… if you can. The Five Deaths. Jeez, if only… If only there had been five.”

It’s here, on The Five Deaths, where my tale begins. A tale that has left me millions of dollars in debt from visitor causalities, mostly due to attacks from roaming velociraptors and a dilophosaurus. All under the employ of a complete psychopath who, I think, loves the “essence of chaos” a little too much.
