Another Tycoon Game?
That was my first thought when I heard about "Zoo Tycoon." Don't be turned off by the name; it is actually quite good. "Zoo Tycoon" is all about managing and building your own zoo. You are given lots of options. Restaurants, petting zoos, pizza stands, and drink stands to name a few. You'll be surprised at the variety of habitats you'll be able to create. Anything from tundra to a savannah.
The scenarios are great for learning how to play the game, and for a challenge. But if you want to play your own way, there is always the freeform mode. A lot of strategy and thought can be put in the game. There is something for every level of gamer.
This is a great game for kids. They will learn a lot by creating each animal's habitat, along with additional information that the game includes. Plus, there is no need to worry about unsuitable content for children.
