5 of 5 zoo tycoon spectacular Friday, August 11, 2006
emily wisniewski from barnt green, england
Zoo tycoon is a game to create a zoo. I find it very easy and occupying. It is easy to use and fun to play on. I find zoo tycoon would be enjoyed by children from 10+ and adults up to 30. It contains moderate violence but I was overall pleasently surprised. Thus concludes my review of zoo tycoon. Was this review helpful?

Since I brought this game into the house, my kids have not stopped playing it. When their friends come over, they all sit around the computer and play it together. Even I've gotten bit by the Zoo Tycoon "bug". It is truly an addicting simulation.
It is a wonderful piece of software, and it really should be considered more educational than it probably is. The children definitely get an education in economics, business, animal behavior and wildlife habitat.
I highly recommend it. Was this review helpful?

kent from Omaha, Ne
From the first SIM Tycoon game I have played, I have been addicted to every one of them. This one was no exception. I have had to sell some of them off so that I could be a respectable citizen and work. The interaction between the characters, animals, and other parts of the game make you want to make a bigger better zoo… and once you’ve done that… you will want to do it again! 4 stars.
