I used to have this game before with all the add ons ( dino zoo, marine world ) but due to changing computers and lossing the cds, I had to start over again, bought this and same as before it is a really great game of building your own zoo, lots of animals, shops and food restaurants, before I was the only one that played it, now with an 8 year old daughter and a 5 y/o sister that follows here EVERYWHERE they are starting playing also, they like it but still they do not understand that animals need people to take care of them so they ofter die, escape or scare people going to their zoo,lol they still like to see that ( people screaming and running away from a tiger ) I still need the add ons, you will be able to have more than 30 species of animals and more options of zoo lands, I dont have any cons with this game, as you can see me I bought it again and I keep playing it when I am bored and need my mind somewhere else... (away from cooking, cleaning,taking care of the children, helping with homework, etc.. ) I play at night and think about what animal I am going to buy next. I'll give A++ to this game.Read full review
The original Zoo Tycoon is probably one of the best computer games that was ever made! Previous versions have just not been as good as this one. It's too bad that the studio that produced it went under a few years ago. If you can find this game at a low price hurry and scoop it up! It's not being made anymore and prices are only going to go up as this classic game becomes rarer and rarer. My Favorite Cheats: -rename exhibit "Xanadu" = you can buy Unicorns -rename exhibit "Cretaceous Corral" = you can buy Triceratops -hold down the "shift" and "4" buttons to get some extra $

I grew up with this game, kinda shocked it worked on my computer since I have windows 10. The gameplay is nice and simple, the tutorial explains it really well. Making the perfect zoo can be challenging, which makes it interesting. But it's perfect for playing mindlessly for hours.

Game Play 1 of 5 stars Graphics 3 of 5 stars Sound 3 of 5 stars A.I. 3 of 5 stars Pros: a good game for animal lovers Cons: probably only for animal lovers Overall: This is a good title and will provide several hours of entertainment. Had to install an automatic update to allow the game to resume from pause mode after a saved game load. Please note: this title was reviewed using a Dell XPS Gen 4, P4 HT @ 3.20 GHz, 4 Gig RAM, Dual 160 SATA RAID(0) hard drives and a nVidia GeForce 6800 256mb PCIe video adapter. It is important to read and understand the minimum and recommended system requirements for any PC video game. Systems that are faster than the minimum may provide significantly better performance and improve your gaming experience. Some PC video games list specific video card requirements and will not function without. It is also important to mention (because we sell video games on ebay) that we do not sell titles as NEW once they are opened and installed for testing. Most test games find a home with one of our testors (employees) and in rare circumstances, we will sell clearly marked as opened and used.Read full review
I really like this game, the graphics are great, and the ease-of-use was great as well! The only issues I could complain about the fact that if you have the game set for "best graphic features" the game moves rather slowly. That is the ONLY issue I have! A great game, I would recommend it, but to truly enjoy all the game has to offer, running it as "best graphics" mode, you compromise the speed.
