Zoo Tycoon Review
You can take a certain hypnotic bliss from simply working along calmly and peacefully, making sure that your park is running as smoothly as it can and improving the conditions for your ever-growing menagerie of creatures.

Maintaining A Safe Distance
At most zoos, numerous signs and railings adorn every habitat, designed to keep hapless patrons from coming face-to-face with the wildlife. That's a practical and life-saving maneuver in the real world, but keeping people at a distance doesn't work in video games.

Zoo Tycoon (Xbox One) Review
The only reason you should play Zoo Tycoon is for the same reason people go to a real zoo in the first place: to see animals so adorable that you have to punch a wall five times to regain your manliness.
Pros:
- Cute
- well-modeled animals and interactions
- Smooth graphics and animations
- Solid tutorials
Cons:
- Zoos reach capacity within three hours
- Too much menu-hopping
- No pause button for time
- can't appreciate animals for long

Zoo Tycoon
Zoo Tycoon returns after nearly a decade, and arrives for the first time on Xbox. It also proves that a good management sim is addictive and fun regardless of platform or generation. Frontier Development's Zoo Tycoon was one of those dark-horse sort of launch day titles.

Review: Zoo Tycoon (Microsoft Xbox One)
Consoles don't get nearly as many business management simulators as the PC market does, so when one comes to the console market it generally has to be something interesting to catch the eye of anyone who isn't into the genre.

Review: Zoo Tycoon is a prohibitive playpen
Despite being a first-party launch title, there's a good chance you may have completely forgotten Zoo Tycoon even exists.
Pros:
- Simple and straightforward
- Charming animal animations
Cons:
- 'Zoo limit' restricts the fun
- Customisation too basic
- Lightweight Kinect features

Zoo Tycoon review
Zoos provide a convenient location where wimps like me can come face-to-face with ferocious animals that, in the wild, would surely eat us. Zoo Tycoon on Xbox One aims to delight and inform animal lovers by capturing the thrill of such interactions in digital form.
Pros:
- Satisfying time management exercises
- Convincing animal models
- Extensive customization options
- Learning all about animals and conservation
Cons:
- Tedious menu navigation
- Limited number of unique species
