Customer Reviews:

I spend all day playing this game [Posted on 2007-06-10]
I loved this game from the start. I liked that you got to make your own zoo and play with it. Whenever my friends come over we always play zoo tycoon 2. Whenever I played it never would freeze but just in case it did I saved it about every 15 minutes.

Daughter loves it! [Posted on 2007-07-20]
I bought this game for my 11-year-old daughter because she likes computer and video games, and because I happened to notice it on a list of parent-recommended software. After reading some of the reviews here, I was a little hesitant, but it wasn't that expensive so I figured I would give it a try.

She LOVES it! When I got home from work last night she had installed it herself, taken some tutorials, learned to play it, and was busily watching giraffes being born and setting up amenities for her zoo visitors. I'm not a huge fan of sim games, but this has certainly kept her absorbed. I think she's going to learn a lot from this game, and it's a fun activity for those boring summer days.

Definitely a good game for my daughter!

Doubt between original Zoo Tycoon and Zoo Tycoon 2? [Posted on 2007-08-13]
I was a RollerCoaster Tycoon fan, but then I wanted to try Zoo Tycoon. Downloaded the trial version and liked it, so I bought it.

BEFORE I bought it, I was in a really big doubt between getting Zoo Tycoon Complete Collection ($[...]) or Zoo Tycoon 2 ($[...]). I looked everywhere to find forums to tell me which one was better. I couldn't find it, so I'm typing here. I really liked Zoo Tycoon 2. I didn't play the full version of the original Zoo Tycoon, but I don't know if it would be as cool as Zoo Tycoon 2. I really enjoyed Zoo Tycoon 2.

What I liked the most was ZooKeeper mode AND the Challenge Mode - this is the game mode I like, and wish there was this mode on RCT. It works like this: You choose a zoo, choose your money, and start with some available animals to buy, and you receive some challanges from time-to-time. Then you have to make your zoo more famous. It is cooler than Campaign Mode, I gotta say. I think that this feature (Challenge Mode) isn't available in the original ZT.

So, in conclusion, I recommend Zoo Tycoon 2. I am playing this game WITHOUT any expansion pack, and it is awesome!

Fun [Posted on 2008-06-18]
I really liked this game especially how it was fun but only for a little while. After a while it got old then it came back and then I lost intrest again. But if you really love animals and couldn't wait to make a Zoo of your own then perfect excellent choice. But it you are looking at rollercoaster Tycoon and this get roallercoaster first you can put a waterpark, rollercoasters, and animals in that but these games are both very fun.

Big Improvement [Posted on 2008-07-02]
Really big improvement and better than the first. Better graphics and more fun...I think. It's not a waste of money!
