About World of Zoo

About this game

Clean the animal enclosures, because World of Zoo from HandyGames is here.

Nurture Animals

World of Zoo is an innovative life simulation game that offers an immersive zoo experience. The game transcends the traditional gaming boundaries by allowing players to interact directly with a variety of animals, fostering a nurturing relationship with them. As players navigate through the game, they are tasked with creating and customising their zoo, ensuring it provides an enriching environment for both the animals and the visitors.

Features

The game boasts an impressive range of features designed to engage players for hours. Among these is the Animal Creator, which permits the creation of unlimited animals, thereby enhancing the diversity of the zoo. Other features include a host of mini-games, achievements, and unlockables that add an element of challenge to the gameplay. Additionally, the game encompasses more than 40 different animal species, providing an array of choices to players and contributing to a unique zoo experience with each play.

Educational Aspect

One noteworthy aspect of World of Zoo is its educational value. In collaboration with National Geographic, the game includes animal fact cards that provide players with interesting insights into the species they are caring for. This not only encourages a deeper understanding and appreciation of the animal kingdom but also enriches the overall gaming experience. The game also includes a feature that allows players to connect online and share user-generated content, further enhancing its interactive nature.

This game offers only 6 kinds of animals. There is no option to "run your own zoo" as the description claims, you merely see the animal pens you have unlocked and the up to three animals you have put in it. The content lacks variety (you basically just feed, throw toys and clean up), there is not much more to do. After 1,5 hours i have seen everything the game has to offer and don't see any reason why i should keep playing just to unlock all animal types.
