Horse Farm
Personally my favorite game. I love feeding my horses and I log back in every single day! I’m currently level 184 and I should reach level 185 tomorrow. It’s overall a good game if you don’t have anyone to play with, as there is not many multiplayer aspects to it.
The people i tell about this game just laugh at me and tell me to get a life, but they have no idea what they’re missing out on.
The graphics of the game is really great considering its free, you can really tell that the graphic designer really loves their job at Upjers the details blows me away every time I open the game back up, they did an incredible job on the horses, its almost like they’re real! Of course you can tell the difference but its really good.

I like to have this game open in the background and play it actively when I’m waiting for a layer of gouache to dry. It keeps you busy in short bursts which is ideal for situations where you just have a couple minutes left over and nothing to do in the time. Personally I think the graphics are cute and have a sort of painterly style. I am currently at level 14 and have not experienced this game as pay to win. Managed to afford the infirmary, that seems to give other people a lot of trouble, without an issue as level ups and quests give you money as well. There is a nice amount of customization for your farm.

Depraved
pros
-
love the weather cycle
-
great attention to small details
-
better than average graphics
-
great foundation to build on with improvements
-
bandits/native american interaction is a nice aspect
cons
-terrible economic system at all levels (easy medium hard)
at hard you pretty much can only build one way or you will fail
at medium you can waiver a little but not much
at easy not much different from medium
if you want to build only a logging town and never advance your populations status then you have no worries

Bottom Line Up Front: This game will be amazing when it’s finished.
Pros:
-
It’s a very cool concept of starting a town in the wild west.
-
The Devs. have come up with a great backbone for the buildings and resources you will need to be successful.
-
Replay-ability once complete will be a GINORMOUS 10/10.
-
It’s not an easy game to master in the beginning. You really need to think a few steps ahead before building anything. This makes it so much more fun when you are successful in your choices.

Wildlife Park Gold Reloaded
It’s not a patch on the original Zoo Tycoon. None of the scenarios seem to be winnable after the intitial introduction ones and it’s plagued with problems, such as vets not treating animals, animals not eating food, etc… The free form games are probably OK, but come on, when will Steam have the original Zoo Tycoon? The only reason I bought this was because I miss the game as my pc will no longer play the CD ROM of the original (and you can’t seem to get computers with disc drives now.) The graphics aren’t as nice either, nor is the section of animals in the game is as extensive, though I could have put that aside if there weren’t so many bugs in the game.

An oversimplified version of the original game made to be played on mobile devices. The menus don’t give you even half of the details you actually need to know to keep your animals happy. Would recommend just buying the original version of the base game and wild creatures

Zoo 2: Animal Park
-
fun to play game
-
0 bugs so far
-
often events
+good community
-hard to find in game active freinds. (you may work for days until you full your freind list with active players)
-very hard to find active clubs in the game.
-
you need to use real money to really lead a normal club.
-
you most pay a lot of real money to play it after level 30-40 cuz expinding the zoo wich is most needed gonna cost you lot diamonds. + shelters to breed as well.
-the price is super over priced. it may cost you at least 300$-500$ to realy could play normal the game.

Just like other phone building games. Cute if you like animals. Frustrating though as you progress, you need gems more and more. I’ve gotten to the point where all my quests require 100 gems or so, and I have none. So…that takes a lot of fun out of it. Gems slowly come with time. So it mostly just means, logging in, quick collection, leave. Doing this day in and day out until you can get the animal or whatever. Then ta-da! Another quest that requires 100 gems! I think I have 7 or 8 now. Each time, has been replaced by another. Really draining now. But love the animations of the animals. Cute. So, short time fun, long time drain.

Planet Zoo
It shows the true meaning of taking care of animals making them feel more alive unlike other games that animals seem more dead than alive, this game is worth the money and i highly recommend this game to anyone that loves zoo’s or who wants to study zoology it has a tab that you can open leading to hours of beautiful notes of each animal from what they eat to if they are endangered to how many in a group and many more things i would write about this beautiful graphic game but i would take hours writing on this amazing game, me myself want to be study zoology and be a vet or zoo keeper so this game is great to learn more about animals, one again I highly recommend this game to others! and it is worth the money!

UPDATE please read if you already have, or especially if you have the game - though i still don’t recommend the game if its not on sale –
I really wanted to like this game, there are so many things about it to love, but oh my god, it is so broken. There are so many game breaking glitches and technical errors, not to mention just straight up poor development choices that really made this depressing to play for me. I love sim development games.
Examples of errors - So you can do construction, as long as you hold down shift as well as other shortcut keys and are able to freely move the walls, still, floors are completely useless, it does make construction a little more fun knowing i can at least use the walls and roofs, I don’t understand why they added floors, snapping the pathways to a grid can help if you want to make a plaza though, as the path will become larger instead of just longer with some branches, but you still have to attach vendors/exhibits to the ends of the path and are not allowed to put it directly on top. which is annoying.

This is by far my favorite game to play now. I was a HUGE fan of the Zoo Tycoon franchise, and being that it isn’t available on Steam (and my laptop has no disk drive) I downloaded the original “Wildlife Park” to see how I like it. I LOVED IT, so I downloaded the “Wild Creatures” expansion. Having loved that so much as well, I play this game more than any others I’ve gotten from Steam.
Bottom line: LOVE the original title and the “Wild Creatures” expansion more than I ever loved Zoo Tycoon and it’s entire franchise.
