Summary: THE BEST GAME EVER!
Review: I first played this game at my friend's house and loved it. Then I played it again at my other friend's house, who got it for Christmas. I have to admit, this is addicting, and I wasn't even the one playing--just watching!
I am so hooked that I am buying a version for myself. I think that older kids as well and adults will like this game, and although it may be a bit complicated for children, it is still great. I love the animals, especially the babies--so cute!
In conclusion, you should DEFINITELY buy this game. It is so worth every penny.

Summary: Wasn't too impressed with original...this is great!
Review: Like i said in my title, the original Zoo Tycoon did not thrill me. Just when I thought I had wasted ...Marine Mania came to the rescue. It took me a while to finally decide: what the heck, I'll get it. I was not dissapointed. I mean, great whites and T. Rex's, who could possibly pass it up? With almost 80 new animals, this game is vastly expanded. You can build tanks that actually have depth (unlike the previous water terrain tool), and house animals such as orca whales, giant squids, and many different kinds of sharks. Plus, certain animals can put on shows! You can impress your guests by having your orcas of dolphins do amazing jumps and breaches, play with balls, and many more amazing tricks! THe great white shark can even perform in shows; you can have your sharks do breaches and feeding frenzies! You can hire marine specialists to train, feed, and doctor your marine animals. You can even put marie plantlife and sunked ships into your tanks to make your animals feel right at home. Many new scenarios and freeform zoos are also available, includinga Kids Zoo, in which everything is unlocked! Plus, this expansion includes the Dinosaur digs expansion as well! Finally, we can turn our zoos into Jurrasic park! You can house dinosaurs such as fast and lethal velociraptors, the huge Apatosaurus, and of course, a T. Rex! This is definitely everything I hoped for in an expansion, even though the original was pretty unsatisfactory. Also, here is a little cheat:

Hold down Shift, then 4 too get lots of money, but be careful, it could delete some or your fences, so do it early in the game!

Summary: Wanna Have the Time of Your Life
Review: I got zoo tycoon and the expansion packs for it and I am on it everyday for about 2-3 hours. The people on here are so much better than Roller Coaster Tycoon. They look 2 times more real than Roller Tycoon.All of my friends like it. My family to. When I was at my grandmas I couldn't wait to go home so I could play Zoo Tycoon. I really recemend this game to everyone!

Summary: ZooTycoon Rocks!!
Review: Zoo Tycoon is the best computer game i've ever had! It keeps me busy for hours and I never get bored. With expansion packs it's even more fun. I would suggest it for anyone who likes animals and is interested in zoos. You also learn about animals and what they like in their exhibits. The graphics are really good and the sounds are cool too. It's a little hard when you start out but it gets easier. It's the best game ever!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great fun for all ages

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What Ani Kerr Thinks!
Review: This game is fun! If you like animals you might also consider The Sims Unleashed. If you got Rollercoaster Tycoon and liked it,this is THE game for you. The people that visit the zoo are better than the people in Rollercoaster Tycoon because there are children and girls-not just boys that all look the same. Rollercoaster Tycoon people have more personality,though. There are many different animals to choose from. My personal favorites are the pigs. All of the animals can have babies and they are all realistic. If you want a fun game with interesting graphics and new possibilities in game play every single time you play, GET ZOO TYCOON! If you are buying this game for someone I reccomend it to girls 9+ of boys 11+ because my little brother never plays it. He likes car racing. I hope you found my review useful!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not really for kids?
Review: I bought this game for my 2 kids age 6 and 8. The game is a little bit too complicated for them. I had to sit down and try and learn it to allow them to play. The game ran way too slow for my patience and required a lot of learning. I would only recommend it for older kids or adults who have alot of time to invest and already have a pretty powerful computer system.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT Christmas/birthday/tuesday gift!
Review: This game is FANTASTIC! I absolutly LOVE zoo tycoon. It is so much fun to build exhibits, learn from your mistakes, and occasionally let a lion or two out for some fun, but i spend hours on it (which may or may not be a good thing) and i still havent seen it all!

There is so much to do, though my computer is a bit slow, so those in the same boat as I am, be patient, it is definently worth the wait!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Snoozer-zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Review: People say one of the drawbacks for this game is--because it is too much like Roller Coaster Tycoon. However, I, a lover of almost all simulation games and Roller Coaster Tycoon, I disliked this game. Unless you find the concept exciting, do NOT buy this game.

Unlike Roller Coaster Tycoon the scenarios are much more boring and broad and after a while (for me, two or three hours) the game became monotanous and boring. It was definately not worth the money and now it is sitting on a quiet dusty shelf.

Also, unlike Roller Coaster Tycoon this game appeals to younger age groups. My friend's on (12 yrs. old) loves this game with a passion.

So to conclude, I would only recommend buying this game if.....

-The idea of building a zoo appeals to you.

-If, you are not buying for youself, primarily younger people will take an interest in this.

-You don't mind a somewhat monotonous game play.
