[title] Gameplay

Zoo Tycoon’s goal is to build a thriving zoo by building exhibits to accommodate animals and keeping guests and animals happy. Zoo Tycoon’s primary goal is to construct exhibits. Exhibits should be appropriate for the animal in order to keep both guests and animals happy; for example, a lion is best suited to a savannah environment. Terrain, foliage, rocks, shelters, fences, toys, and the presence of zookeepers all contribute to an exhibit’s suitability and animal happiness. The happiness of guests is determined by the animal selection, animal happiness, buildings, and scenery. Bathrooms, restaurants and food stands, shops, reptile houses, aviaries, and entertainment structures such as movie theatres are examples of buildings. Topiary art, light posts, and benches are examples of scenery that increase guest happiness slightly. Keeping both the animal and the guest happy allows the player to earn monetary rewards and maintain a consistent income. Players can hire maintenance workers, zookeepers, and tour guides to help manage the expanding zoo. If the animals escape from their enclosures, they have the potential to attack and even kill guests and employees.

Zoo Tycoon has three game modes: tutorial, scenario, and freeform. The tutorial teaches the player how to construct exhibits and keep visitors happy. In Scenario mode, the player must complete a series of objectives while adhering to strict time constraints. These goals may include achieving a certain level of guest and animal happiness, achieving a certain level of exhibit suitability, displaying a certain number of animals, or breeding a specific animal. The player has complete control over the amount of money and the map with which they begin in Freeform. They are shown an open lot with a limited selection of animals, buildings, and scenery for sale. More animals and items become playable as the game progresses. More animals and items can be researched, and money can be invested to make them playable.
