Free custom Jurassic Park instruction cards

Post edited: I made these custom cards for my friend with a JP a while ago, but I based them off the Williams/Bally size, and I guess that doesn't fit Data East. Thanks to RussMyers I fixed the size (and ChadH helped with a rule fix) so these are good to go now so I can share.

Don't print the image in this post, it's just a low rez preview, download the PDF for a high quality full-size print.

I like these!

One issue though... the rules around Captive Ball are wrong. Here is the actual Egg progression as it stands today in v.5.13.

2 hits for 5 million
3 more hits for 10 million (or extra ball if your extra ball percentage achieved is low)
4 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for Super Egg Mania
6 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for Super Egg Mania
6 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for Super Egg Mania
6 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for 15 million
6 more hits for Super Egg Mania
etc..

I don't think the game ever offers a mystery with the Egg shot. So if you reword it to "Every fourth egg score Power Egg Mania"... and remove the mystery reference then it will be accurate.

You would know Chad! I don't have a JP so I wrote the rules after reading up on them. Could have been old or wrong docs.

Also like I said happy to change text for your new rules later too if you can help me reword anything else wrong.

Everything else is correct and remains correct under the new rules as well so what you have works.

The new rules will be:
1 hit for 5 million
2 more hits for 10 million (or extra ball if your extra ball percentage achieved is low)
3 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for Super Egg Mania
4 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for Super Egg Mania
4 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for Super Egg Mania
4 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for 15 million
4 more hits for Super Egg Mania
etc..

So it's really the same "Every fourth egg" for Super Egg Mania... just more achievable for the average man.

Oh, and to clarify... it is called "Super Egg Mania". Not "Power Egg Mania".

Don't worry I caught that, thanks.

Updated the first post with a new image and the download link for the PDF. Chad lemme know when you finish your code if there's anything I need to update and I'll fix for you.

Are these accurate in terms of the new JP rules currently under development?

I'm sorry Aurich I like your work and I don't want to be an ass here but....
just as Dante mentioned in the speaker panel thread, have you cleared both with Data East and Universal Pictures about using their logo/art when making these? i'm quoting you here, "Give it away or charge for it, makes no difference, copyright holds just fine"

Again, I'm not trying to pick a fight but I'm sure you can see the resemblance here?

#22 10 years ago

If Stern or Universal or Robin complains I'll take them down, because yes, they are the copyright holders.

Sure thing. Grab them here:

I also fixed the typo and re-uploaded the previous version if that bugs you then grab it again. If you don't know the typo then ignorance is bliss!

Haha! Honestly though these are the nicest cards I've seen for this game, and one of the nicest overall. Do you have cards for other games?

Thanks! Um. Shadow, Scared Stiff, Jurassic Park, AC/DC ... I think that's it. I need to get around to EATPM, I'll do Star Trek when I work on the translite, probably Metallica after the new rules are done too. I should just collect them all in a thread, more so I can have one spot to dump them for easy reference more than anyone necessarily caring about my cards specifically.
