Summary: A game my children actually play!!!
Review: My 9, 7 and 5 year old all love this game. I watch them play it and think it looks so hard because they are actually running a business. They have to account for money disbursement, profitability, and manage the park among other things.
They actually fight over who's turn it is to play. The complete collection is a great value as well.

Summary: GET THIS GAME!!!!
Review: One day I went over my friend's house and we played one of her new games called Zoo Tycoon. We played it for less than an hour, but I still fell in love. The next day, I went out to buy it. I played with it for 4 hours straight. This game is extremely fun. There are more than 100 animals you get and you have to make their habitat perfect and like the animal's home habitat. There are som many tools and fun things to make you zoo looking fabulous. The expansions, Marine Mania and Dinosaur Digs, add even more gameplay. Get this game, it's definately worth it.

Summary: Just love it!
Review: My little brother, who is 10 years old, insisted that I should let him ask for this game in Christmas and play it in my computer. At first I was reluctant but finally I accepted. Now it's me who has become zoo-addict with this great game.

Summary: Absolutely wonderful!
Review: The appeal of this game is so broad that anyone from 5 years to 90 years can enjoy it. It crosses gender and generation! Whether you want to make a beautiful garden park with gentle gazzelles in it or create a fiery volcanic island where dinosaurs run free, this game has it all! A great bonus is that the game creators, Blue Fang, have regularly released free downloads to increase the appeal of the game such as new theme items, restaurants, and animals! The bonus items are easy to obtain and install and they add a lot to the game. But in my opinion the single greatest free download they offer for Zoo Tycoon is a program called APE, or Animal Project Editor, which allows you, the user, to create your own content for the game! If you want something that isn't included, you can make it yourself- or, if you haven't the ambition or skills, you can ask someone else to do it at one of the many thriving fan sites such as Zoo-Tek.com and chances are you'll get it before long, if it isn't already available somewhere. This game's popularity just keeps growing because it has such unlimited potential. Well done, Blue Fang, this has definitely become my favorite game.

Summary: Cannot recommend enough!
Review: This game is awesome! My son, who started playing this game at 6, has been in love with this game for over a year. Every child, ages 6 - 11, who comes over to our home ends up addicted to this game. I think we are personally responsible for a spike in sales of this product in our area! The game teaches children so much on so many levels without boring them with the presentation. They learn about the animals themselves by setting up their environments. If they don't do it right the animals will complain, get sick or die. They learn to manage employees. Every once in a while you'll get an employee who doesn't do his work and you have to fire him! They learn about management of a park. For example, if you forget to add enough trash cans, the guest will throw trash on the ground. And they learn about budgets because if they don't manage their cash flow they will run out of money. Totally a thumbs up!

Summary: the coolest game.ever.
Review: i love this game!!! it is so much fun!info for people who wanna buy it: objective: build a fun, thriving zoo, and make guests & animals happy! age: any age, really, but kids under 6 will need a little help, but older then that they should be able to do it on their own. pros: fun, exiting, cute graphics.........ect.ect.ect! cons: i cant think of any but that if you have the new version of xp it wont work unless you download a patch from zootycoon.com perks: i like cheats, because it makes the game easier. if you want more money(make sur you do this BEFORE building exibits, because fences break) hold down shift+4 as long as you want, no limits, i think that 11,000,000 is about right for my zoo. bye!

Summary: A Must Buy
Review: I bugged my dad into getting this after I got all the trial versions, and it was AMAZING! Not only can you adopt animals, but you can also adopt dionsaurs and other prehistoric andimals and marine animals. There are a lot of fansites with downloads for this game (example: http://www.zklounge.com) that users created! People obviously put a lot of time to create these animals and they also create hacks (things that make the game just a LITTLE easier; ex. unlocking things at the very begining at the game) and objects. The only reason I rated this 4 stars is for some unknown reason, the game crashed and now I can only use disc 1 :-(. (But it's STILL fun!)

They play this game continuously!! Zoo Tycoon features all the great zoo animals and my daughter loves it when the elephants get out of their pen!!! Would recommend this PC game for anyone--young or old!!

Summary: Must Buy
Review: My opinion is since I have this game is to buy it. Also this game is not the best if you think it is. After awhile, it gets boring and the scenarios are pretty good but the game itself is excellent over all. I woule reccomend this game to anyone who is interested in this type of games. If you are not you are looking at the wrong game.

Summary: An Educational and Challenging Blast
Review: We started my 4 & 8 years old boys with the original Zoo Tycoon game. Then we added the Dinosaur and Marine Expansion Pack. This whole set is so much fun for the little and the big. Both of them enjoy the challenge of making the animals happy as well as learning about so many of them. The 8-year old has little trouble playing the game by himself. The 4-year old needs a little help to play the game successfully--but hey, its a game and he can always start it over. This is really great!!
