Don’t let the cute pixel art style fool you. Managing a zoo is more than just a walk in the park. Let’s Build A Zoo wastes no time allowing players to establish living hells and shelters for both visitors and animals.
The game excels at two major mechanics that stand out from its big-time competitors: morality and the splicing system. The moral system adds a welcome splash of humor. Quests such as Dealing with and Reporting Illegal Traders can have a big impact on the route you want to take. A more capitalist or more benevolent nature. DNA splicing is another strangely fun integration. Unlocking this feature may take some time, but it’s worth the effort. Using CRISPR gene splicing technology, you can mix and match animal species as you like. From crocodiles to ducks, the possibilities are endless.
Hands are virtually non-existent in this game. Beyond just a few quick tips here and there, it’s up to you to figure out how to manage your zoo. Allowing players to choose their playstyle from the get-go is good, making it essentially a sandbox experience. . Speaking of Chaos, his poor UI exacerbates this problem. Navigating the menus and unlocking items in the zoo can be tedious.The latter do not have a clear categorical relationship when opening new items to decorate the zoo.
Still, with enough humor and fun game mechanics, Let’s Build A Zoo will keep you immersed in the park for hours if you can get past the poor UI and lack of guidance.
