Summary: chicago mom
Review: My son, who is 5, is addicted to this game. It is amazingly creative, and although you would think you need to read fluently, there are enough symbols that my 5 year old navigates through all on his own.
He found out that instead of assigning a zookeeper to feed the alligators, he could just put zebras in their exhibit and they would make a delicious dinner!
He also loves animals so much, that he took down their fences to set them free, and the game is so adaptable, that the animals actually started chasing the guests and eating them! This initially was little greusome, and now he is very protective of his guests, but the creativity is wonderful.
A must for animal lovers. Great for kids to use their imagination and much better than vegging out in front of the TV.

Summary: One of the more popular games my daughter plays
Review: When i first bought this game i was unsure that my daughter was even going to like this. However, i was quite wrong. She plays this game non-stop all the time. And because she loved it so much she had me buy Dinosaur Digs and Marine Mania. I recommend any simulation game lover to try this game, IT'S WORTH THE MONEY!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ZT is one of the best games ever!
Review: I play zoo tycoon about 2 hours per day when I can. I downloaded about 50 new items, and want more! Zoo Tycoon is fun, and I share my zoos with my friends.

Go out there and buy zoo tycoon now!

Summary: Favourite Strategy Game
Review: I have to admit that after experiencing the ups and downs (pun intended) of Roller Coaster Tycoon, I was a bit hesitant to purchase Zoo Tycoon. I figured that it was going to be very similar in that in many respects the game breezed, without there being any way of making money.

I was wrong, and now I'm glad that I made the investment. I play using both expansion packs, and although I am not sure how happy I am with Dinosaur Digs (the dinos have too much of a tendancy to escape, provided you don't build moats, and they hate those!), but Zoo Tycoon itself has provided me with hours of entertainment. I'm always looking for and finding new ways to build the zoo to make both guests and animals happier, and I'm always thrilled when I find a new trick on my own!

I did find a few bugs in the game, however, and I've since found out that there are others who experience problems. Some of the animals are literally impossible to please unless you have the expansion packs installed. There is a patch available for Zoo Tycoon on the official website, but I didn't find that it worked by itself. Installing the double expansion pack did the trick though, and now it only takes about five minutes to produce a baby panda.

I highly recommend this game for anybody who enjoys strategy. It is worth every penny you'll spend on the game and it's expansions. With all of the user-created animals and objects avaiable, there is no end to how far you can go within the game, and the strategy behind winning is spectacular.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty good game!
Review: I bought roller coaster tycoon and loved it, but this is just as good. It's pretty expensive, but it's totally worth it. Plus, it runs on tons of different computers. It has great graphics, never slow, tons of scenarios(but you can play a free game too), instrution manual and helpful tutorial. Based on reviews for the other tycoons (besides RCT+RCT2)there is not many good ones; and even if the reviews are good, then it won't run on your computer. So, this is one of the best "tycoon" games.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: crashes and bugs
Review: This game had potential.........but they never worked out the bugs! I find myself worrying about whether the stupid game is going to crash more than winning it! Not only that but you have to start the research projects all over again when the game crashes...even if you saved it. The animals also have issues....like my penguins who after a few months in zoo time froze. I truly was disappointed next time I hope Microsoft fixes the game b4 they release it
However despite all this...I mastered the game in a few days. Maybe I became tired with the game because I never got far enough to unlock the secrets, which cannot be done if the game crashes every two seconds.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: screech goes the wild bob cat
Review: I only have the demo version of this I use it every day. there isn't a whole lot to say about this exept it is the greatest game in the world.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun, But Very Complicated
Review: I enjoy myself immensely when I play this game. One of the reasons I find it so entertaining is because there is always something you need to be doing. There is never time to just sit around in this game; there is always a hungry animal, a dissatisfied guest, or new animals to adopt. The only problem I had was that it was very confusing, which is why I took away one star. Younger children would find it very difficult to figure out. I would reccomend this game for 9-13 year olds.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This game is addictive!!
Review: I bought this game for my daughter for Christmas. She loves it! I got so involed in helping her set her zoo up that I decided to start my own zoo. If you're in to landscape design this game is for you. They have just about every type of tree, bush and terrain god makes. They also have flower beds and topiary. Our expansion pack included Dino Digs too, so there are lots of fossil rocks,lava and mud pits as well. I think the best part is designing the zoo.

The aquariums are easy to build. There are lots of sharks and whales, but not many fish. The game includes several tutorials to make game play easier. It even has a kids map, with pre-built exibits. Excellent game, very educational. It's pretty complex though. I would recommend it for ages 10 and up
