Zoo Tycoon 2 Expansions & DLCs

Strategy 16 October 2007

An expansion for Zoo Tycoon 2, developed by the creators of the core game, Blue Fang Games. The add-on is the biggest one created for the game so far, as it introduces thirty new species, such as dodos, Tasmanian tigers, and even dinosaurs, including the Tyrannosaurus Rex. You task is to make sure they have the best living conditions possible (which means they have to resemble the animals' natural habitat), so that the beautiful and well-kept specimens will attract more visitors, who will pay you money. That, in turn allows you to further develop your zoo. The expansion requires the core game to run and does not introduce any changes to the mechanics or the visuals.

Strategy 18 October 2005

An expansion for Zoo Tycoon 2, developed by the creators of the core game, Blue Fang Games. The expansion allows you to feature some of the rarest endangered species, such as Komodo dragons, koala bears, orangutans, and Galapagos tortoises, in your zoo. To ensure their survival, you have to make sure they live in the conditions that resemble their natural habitat as closely as possible. Since your primary goal is to attract as many visitors as possible, you have to build many observation points or even bridges above various cages. In Zoo Tycoon 2: Endangered Species you can also take your visitors on a car ride, allowing them to observe the animals from a closer distance, which increases your income (satisfied visitors pay you more money). There is also an educational center, which allows your visitors to learn additional information about certain species. The expansion requires the core game to run.
