 Gets boring quickly May 26, 2008
I got this game for my DS, and I played it about 3 times.
This game wasn't much fun for me.
The graphics weren't great.
It only had one thing to do.
It was confusing.
It got extremely boring, extremely quickly.
Once you build a zoo, you have done everything this game has to offer.
I wouldn't reccomend it.
 Too complicated and impossible to read! March 7, 2008
I bought this game for my 6 yo DD. I tried it out first and had a hard time remembering everything once the tutorial was over. I am not even 40 and have great eyes, but I could HARDLY read the words on the upper screen...way too small!
We are trading for something else. (P.S. We are not huge gamers and are new to the DS system).
 Freeform-Game Mode Lets A Player Design a Lavish Zoological Garden February 27, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
A caveat: I'm over 50, with no experience yet of Zoo Tycoon on a PC, but I recently bought both Zoo Tycoon and Zoo Tycoon 2 for the DS. Playing the campaign games, in which a player has to satisfy increasingly harder goals, held no appeal for me, but I loved the idea of using freeform mode to custom-build a zoo. This style of play is much more fun in Zoo Tycoon. Zoo Tycoon 2 has severe limits on the number of scenic items you can place in a zoo, does not let you alter the zoo terrain outside an exhibit, and has a selection of scenery items that were less appealing to me. In Zoo Tycoon I've had a lot of fun using the fountain and fresh-water tiles to create little water gardens throughout a zoo, an impossibility in Zoo Tycoon 2. Similarly, in Zoo Tyccon I could be generous placing park benches; Zoo Tycoon 2 let me place about 30 scenic items total. If designing a zoo is as much fun for you as acquiring animals or meeting challenges, you may prefer Zoo Tycoon over Zoo Tycoon 2.
 I like it January 11, 2008
i liked this game. yes it does have its ups and downs and its true the PC version is much better. But once you get used to it, it really isnt that bad of a little game

I thought this game would be cool, but you can't even tell what kind of animal it is! If you absolutly love zoo tycoon, go ahead and buy it. If you don't, then leave it on the shelf.
