Who here hasn't walked around the zoo as a kid thinking it would be cool to design your own? Now these child dreams might come true. In Zoo Tycoon, you'll be challenged to build the most healthy and vibrant zoo possible. Build, manage, and maintain a zoo with over 200 different types of animals, exhibits, and zoo materials. You also have to keep the zoo profitable, make sure the park is clean and tidy, manage research programs and handle advertising. Plan wisely, and all of your animals will be happy. Plan poorly, and those lions, tigers, and bears may find a new found interest in you :P Zoo Tycoon includes thirteen different scenarios that start out easy and becoming increasingly more difficult. You can research new park facilities and animals, build food stands, gift shops and other objects like benches and lampposts, very similarly to RollerCoaster Tycoon. Zoo Tycoon is a mostly enjoyable strategy game that's suitable for all ages, don't offer nothing new, but it’s a zoo in here! :) if you already bought this game, don't forget to download the Asian Elephant add-on. If you want only try - leech this playable demo (27MB).
