Summary: Excessively COOL Game!
Review: The lions have escaped, and the panda is very sick, and all of the guests are hungry, and, and, and! Running your own zoo is not always easy. Many things can go wrong, but just as easily they can go right. Like watching the polar bear playing with her new baby or winning awards. In Microsoft's game, Zoo Tycoon, you get to experience running your own zoo with great graphics and features, awesome gameplay, and new suprizes everywhere!

There many games that are great but have terrible graphics. Zoo Tycoon is different. It has many veiw points, and beautiful scenery. All of the animals actually look real and not like robots. The people wander around and you can tell what they're doing. Whether it's sitting on the picnic table or cleaning up Zoo Poo. In conclusion, this games graphics are one of its strong points.

The best part of playing games is playing them! ZT has many features such as baby animals and wild animal escapes that make ZT one step higher than the average computer game. The people are a challenge alone to please and the animals are a whole other story. It is not impossible though and it is fun to get awards and extra cash for making everybody happy with animal toys and burger stands. On the other hand, for the more mischeveous mind, it is just as fun to build a zoo just to terrorize it! So with a last word, ZT is a great game to play, not just to look at its box:)

If you would like to have the full challenge of playing this game with no hints, I advise you do not read the following paragraph.
As in most games there are cheats in ZT. Perhaps you were running out of cash, you could just push Ctrl-4 and you automatically get 10,000 bucks. (do this before you build anythin as it destroys your fences) Or if you were feeling very mean you could name a gueest Alfred H. and birds would come and freak out all the people. Alfred Hitchcock lives on! There are many cheats to either help your zoo or make the people miserable. You can find them on many Zoo Tycoon web sites.

Overall Zoo Tycoon is a great game for all ages to play and I highly recomend it. I enjoyed it!

Pros:
-Great graphics
-Cool Cheats
-You get to pick male or female animals
-The animals have babies
-Good information on the animals
-You get to design exhibits with foilage and decorations
-Freeform or challenge zoos
-In freeform you can have up to 500 thousand dollars
-Terrorize the zoo and its inhabitants with one click of a mouse

-Build a beautiful zoo to please animals, guests and yourself

Cons:
-It can be slightly slow at times
-You can only have right angles on the fences limiting creativity
-The people and animals can be to hard to please

Overall it's a very neato frito game

Summary: My 9-year old nephew loves it... here's what his dad says...
Review: As far as Alex is concerned, The earth has stopped
turning and time has stopped for Zoo Tycoon. He has
probably spent a total of 20+ hours over the weekend
building and perfecting a zoo, several ocean water
parks, and a couple of Dinosaur zoos. He believes
this may be the very reason computers were invented in
the first place. He has been telling us for several
years that he wants to open a new "Ocean Adventures"
park (ala Gulf World) when he grows up, now his exact
quote is "It's my dream and I will not let anything
stop me!" According to the game, he is quite adept at
setting up and running a zoo.

Summary: BEST GAME EVA!
Review: At first when I got this game I found it kind of complicated to get started, like I didn't know you could check the zoo keeper for tips. But now, I've had the game for almost a year, which I'm now entering the 6th grade. I have a zoo on the kids map, one of the options of where to build your zoo, and It's great! All of the animals are unlocked on the kids map. My zoo is three years old in game time, and I have every animal the game has to offer in an exhibit in my zoo. On the kids map, you also can't run out of money! This game is a must for all you kids out there I'd say maybe ten or older.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun, fun, fun!!!
Review: This is one of the best sim games I've come across in a while. It's kept me busy for hours and hours.. and hours.. and hours.. lol. The animals are cool and pretty realistic.. I particarly enjoy watching the polar bears and chimps.. they are a riot! Lots of accessories to download for free from fansites as well, which is a defininite plus. This one gets a huge thumbs up!! Woot!!

Summary: Good, but could've been better
Review: A casual RPG gamer will love this game, but there aren't enough features for a hardcore RPG gamer.

A couple of annoyances about the game: You build an exhibit with lions. If one patch of the grass is missing, they are automatically unhappy with the exhibit. Sometimes it takes a long time to figure out what they want.

Another flaw is the fact that sometimes objects overlap and you can't see what's going on, unless you turn the map around.

Overall though, this is a good game and should be a hit with the kids.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THIS IS ADDICTING......FOR KIDS ALSO!!!!
Review: This game has lost us many ours of sleep...I love the graphics, and how real everything sounds. My kids are just as addicted to is as I am.....plus it is a great learning tool. They know what all the animals need to make them happy, and they have learned so many things about different animals..things they never even would have known before...and that includes myself. I HIGHLY recommend this game for everyone!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This Game In One Word? FANTASTIC!
Review: I loved this game so much! It's great for anyone who likes animals, theme parks, or decorating areas. I love this game because you can adopt animals, name them, and watch them in their habitats. In this collection of Zoo Tycoon, you can also adopt pre-historic dinosaurs and marine animals! You build your park from a raw piece of land, choosing where the soda machine goes to where you want to have your cinema! The only reason why I didn't give this game five star was because the animal information wasn't completely correct. Most of it is correct, but some isn't. If you want to learn about animals, pick up a good book or look them up on the internet. This game is fantastic! Lots and lots of fun, great for all ages!

Summary: Addicting, maybe too addicting...
Review: Zoo Tycoon Complete Collection is by far the best Zoo Tycoon out there. With all of the features available, you can create super zoos combining regular zoo animals, aquatic animals, and dinosaurs. At first, the controls can be a little intimidating, but taking the tutorials makes the controls seem easy. You can choose between freeform mode, which allows you to build your own zoo your way, or pick a scenario with a certain goal in mind. All of the zoo structures makes decorating a zoo easy, and it's fun to make zoos with a certain theme, like a Safari or Rainforest. The Zoo Tycoon website is a great help, and it has cheats and free downloads. It also has links to other websites that give hints and more cheats. It's hard to just stop playing this game, because you can never just "win" it. You can play the scenarios, play freeform games, or just set some big dinos loose on the zoo. (It's a great way to relieve stress ^_~) Buy the game, it's worth the price!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Astoundingly Addictive Game!
Review: I can play this game for hours on end and not get bored.Everything is so simple to do, yet there is always something to challenge you. For me, it's those pesky snow leopards...so fussy! I am also thrilled at the fan support availible for this game. The official site looks pretty but there isn't lots of help there. But there are plenty of fan created sites that are chock full of helpful information and strategies. zootycoonunlimited.com has helped me out lots of times, and they are so friendly there. If you but this awesome game, you should certainly check out Zoo Tycoon Unlimited USA to make your experience complete!
