Jurassic World Evolution 2 is here to the delight of the many fans awaiting the sequel since its announcement as part of Summer Games Fest. With the addition of building customization, hiring scientists, and flying and underwater dinosaurs alongside the usual Jurassic Park Velociraptors, there's plenty of things to get different players excited. While the sequel is relatively similar to the first, there are new intricacies added to older systems in JWE2, one of which being Appeal.

Jurassic Park's latest video game adaption is a business simulation game by Frontier Developments that sees players running their own version of Jurassic Park across many game modes. While Jurassic Park Evolution 2's modes work in numerous different ways, certain metrics need to be watched across most if not all of them. One of the statistics players will be checking on frequently is Appeal, found in the Park Rating menu.

What is Appeal in JWE2?

Appeal is what draws people to fans' parks. Many players might notice as they develop their parks that guests don't appear until closures are fully built and dinosaurs roam in their custom-built homes. This is because dinosaurs are notably the biggest factor in how Appeal works.

Guests want to see the dinosaurs of Jurassic Park above all else. The metric deals with what dinosaurs are in fans' parks, how visible they are, and what kind of variety the park has. Finding this balance is crucial to bringing more guests into players' parks.

JWE2 Appeal Levels and How to Raise Them

The highest appeal players can reach in the new Jurassic World Evolution 2 is 4,000. This total is calculated by several factors. Each dinosaur comes with its own appeal points, which differ based on the genetic authenticity and modifications used in the creature's creation. That number gets decreased depending on if the reptiles are visible at that particular moment in players' parks, as well as if the location owns more than one of each dinosaur available. Attractions also play a part in how many guests come to the park, but those buildings require them to remain open to raise the metric.

The most important thing for Jurassic Park movie fans who wish to raise their appeal is to simply make sure their dinosaurs are diverse in number as well as genetically, as well as making sure guests can see them. No one wants to go to a park where they can't see the star attractions, after all.

It's advised that players make their enclosures as small as possible in regards to the creatures' size and comfort levels to boost visibility. They should also make sure plenty of space is available for those enclosures as well. Not all dinosaurs can exist in habitats together, so to get the best variety, having more than one enclosure is the safest investment to bring in guests.

Jurassic World Evolution 2 is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
