Welcome, to Charles Darling's Triassic Preserve!
The past - today!
Steam Workshop description

Enclosure is a community-made, three-stage Payload map released during the Jungle Inferno Update. The map depicts certain enclosures and facilities of Charles Darling's Triassic Preserve. Mr. Darling's finest exhibits include Pteranodon, Brachiosaurus, Triceratops, Velociraptor, and Tyrannosaurus rex in enriching environments.

A portion of the money made from the sales of the Jungle Inferno Campaign Pass goes to the authors of the map.

Trivia

  • Sharing an issue that the Jurassic Park film has to a lesser extent, none of the dinosaurs displayed in Triassic Park are from the Triassic Period. Most are Cretaceous dinosaurs, excepting Brachiosaurus making an appearance in the Late Jurassic.
  • "Freeman Airboat Tours" is a reference to Gordon Freeman, the protagonist from the from Half-Life series, as well as to the chapter "Water Hazard" from Half-Life 2, which largely consists of driving an airboat.
