This game is very fun. It completely hooked me and made me want to build up my zoo for a couple weeks. (+) morality system, which lets you make a good or evil zoo (+) fun, grid based gameplay that lets you make efficient use of space (+) incredibly fun progression system and skill tree (+) the game choses depth over simplicity and simplicity of depth in the right areas (+) beautiful graphics that lets you really make your zoo look good (-) sound is a big weakness of this game. The music seems unfitting and gets annoying after a while. And the animals make incredibly obnoxious that usually sound like they are mocking you in some way (-) the game expects you to co-habit different animals in the same enclosure. I really really didnt want to do this so I never did. It doesn't have any kind of morality penalty for doing so either which shows a little bit of ignorance from the developer about how zoos work (-) the game really pushes you to splice two animals together to make hybrid abominations. Not only does the game force you into a quest where you have to build the cloning lab, it also constantly forces you to splice animals if you aren't cloning them. Also no morality penalty for this which is really disturbing. (-) way too many animals per enclosure, and they constantly breed way too fast. You will be releasing rabbits daily (-) The game makes it very hard to figure out how big an enclosure you just made, and impossible to tell how much space animals you are trading for take up. This makes it very common to build enclosure that is the wrong size

Hi i'm writing this in the hope that the developers read this (Yes this is for you Team Trees) I have been playing this game since it first came out. I remember asking my parents to take me out to get me a steam gift card just in the hopes of getting this wonderful game the week it released. I have played this game both good and evil and I can tell you this game perfectly shows how you can turn cute pixelated creatures into a beautiful game full of creatures from land, the water and from a past time. Overall this game is a 10/10 for me. The one thing i have always wanted this game to have is a rare genome for example albinism one in a thousand (Just pitching a number devs feel free to alter this) or even melanistic and pie balled. This would add an even stronger thirst to play this game in the hopes that you may just be able to create or find one of these rare specimens. Please devolopers if you made it this far it would be my dream if you would add this.

It's a surprisingly deep tycoon game where you can micromanage to your heart's content but aren't specifically required to to make progress. Catnip for autistic folks.

i gave a certain visiting influencer personal, unsupervised access to the bear enclosure. its inhabitants ripped him to shreds within seconds. the police are treating it as foul play by a third party, rather than negligent manslaughter by me or my staff. i like this game a lot!
