As the game is based on all four films , the " Tyrannosaurus " " rex " appears at several points in the game . Because the humorous nature of the game , the Tyrannosaurs as most of the Dinosaurs in the game are depicted with human - like intelligence , doing things like eating hamburgers wearing a bib and drinking coffee . Also though the Tyrannosaurs in the game still eat people , they usually end up spitting them out alive later on such as Rexy spiting out Donald Gennaro after defeating The Big One . Another example is the captured Tyrannosaur Buck spitting out Robert Burke and the other InGen Hunters . Also the Infant " T . rex " does not eat Peter Ludlow , instead Ludlow is taken back to Isla Sorna where he becomes part of the infant ' s mobile . When Rexy ate Donald Gennaro , she opened her mouth again , and he was using the toilet cleaner to supposedly " clean " Rexy ' s teeth . Both the Infant " T . rex " and adult " T . rex " are playable , unlocked once the " Tyrannosaurus " ' Amber Brick is obtained in the " Control Room " level , by breaking the LEGO glass on a Vending Machine found in the level with Lex Murphy ' s Scream ability . Once the Amber Brick is obtained the Infant and Adult " Tyrannosaurus " are unlocked for Free Play . However only the Infant can be selected from the character selection menu , while the Adult can only be summoned via Dino Spawners capable of spawning large dinosaurs , such as the one in the Tyrannosaur Paddock and other large open areas . Rexy can also be released into the Tyrannosaur Enclosure located in Jurassic World via shooting an electric switch using an Electric rifle . The playable Adult Tyrannosaur has two abilities , " Roar " and " Dino Strength " . Its Roar ability allows it to break Amber LEGO objects and destructible objects by roaring . Dino Strength allows it to break special Dino strength objects . The Infant " T . rex " however has no special abilities . During certain points in the story , Tyrannosaurs can be controlled to fight enemy dinosaurs such as The Big One , " Spinosaurus " , and " Indominus rex " which act as boss battles . Also an adult " Tyrannosaurus " Skeleton can be unlocked as a playable character via collecting all 10 Minikits in Jurassic Park ' s " Visitor Center " chapter ( " Kitchen Escape " , " Control Room " , and " Main Hall " ) . This will also unlock the Tyrannosaur hologram in Jurassic World ' s Innovation Center . The playable " T . rex " Skeleton uses the same animation , vocal effects , and abilities as the standard T . rex . Like all the Dinosaurs in the game , the player can customize their own " Tyrannosaurus " . Through customization the " Tyrannosaurus " head option can be added to other dinosaurs to grant them the ability to roar like a " Tyrannosaurus " . Other appearances . Jurassic Park franchise .
