DESCRIPTION

In this festive and feature-rich business simulation, players may choose from over 40 species and subspecies of animals as they create their ultimate Zoo Empire. The game features two gameplay modes: Sandbox and Career. In Sandbox mode, players will set their own goals for the game. By selecting Career mode, however, players face the challenge of graduating from Rookie Zookeeper to Wildlife Zoo Master, by fulfilling numerous duties that include adopting animals, creating and maintaining the park's landscaping, and building exhibits, and the day-to-day responsibilities of hiring and managing employees.

From elephants to iguanas, and including rare and endangered species, players can select from a wide variety of animals in the beginning of the game, while looking forward to new, un-lockable animals further along, once they've invested enough into research. To house the animals and to please visitors, over 200 buildings, scenery objects, and other facilities are available, all modeled in 3D. Also, players can create a photo album, or capture videos of the animals as they perform dozens of life-like animations. These can be shared online, allowing players show off their zoo wonderland to friends and family. ~ Damian Francis, All Game Guide
