World of Zoo

World of Zoo is a life simulation video game from Zoo Tycoon series developers Blue Fang Games. In the game, players will take care of 95 different species of animals from 11 different families which can be placed into 20 exhibits. The goal is to keep animals happy by feeding them, playing with them and improving their exhibits. Happy animals will provide the player with hearts and tokens that can be redeemed for various items such as tools, food and new animals, and certain achievements unlock new species or in-game awards. Players can add animals by either using the "Animal Adoption Network" or the "Animal Creator" where players can customize animal personalities and appearances. There are several minigames scattered throughout the game to keep game play fresh and exciting. World of Zoo was released for Windows PC, Wii and Nintendo DS on October 26, 2009. Unlike other versions, the Wii version can be played by up to 4 players.
