Video Game Reviews of Zoo Tycoon 2
Customer Review: Daughter loves it!
Summary: 5 Stars
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!
Customer Review: I spend all day playing this game
Summary: 5 Stars
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.Customer Review: Awesome!

Summary: 4 Stars
I like games like CIVILIZATION that take hours and hours and hours to play. While I adore this game, I must say that it's a bit slow before anything really starts to happen. You can build your zoo, but it takes a while. Then you have to wait before you start to really build up your number of visitors. About the only thing you can really do is over extend yourself, because they won't come if you don't have fun things for them to do. Doesn't matter how many baby animals you have, nor how many varieties, it seems they won't show up if you don't have a bunch of shops, places to eat and (Yep!) BATHROOMS! They don't like not having places to go pee and surprisingly this one factor can make or break you.
Once you get a following, I do like how the game seems to progress. Though after a while, it gets very redundant. If you're going to play this game, you better have the expansion packs. You'll need it to maintain your excitement level.
Customer Review: Zoo tycoon 2,- a REALLY GREAT game
Summary: 5 Stars
I have zoo tycoon 2 and endangerd species, & marine mania expansion packs and let me tell you it is a great game. I have made a ton of zoos and along with the expansion packs, I try to make them them a five star zoo. Along the way to making the zoo I can name my animas. I also make jeep rides and actully ride in them!(You can only make them with endangered species pack only though) I don't play with Zoo tycoon 2 much though because my brothers are always playing with it!!! Put this game on your early Christmas list!
