"Zoo Tycoon™," a wild new computer game from Microsoft Corp., is now available on store shelves, bringing roaring lions, sprinting cheetahs and waddling penguins together to test the creativity and business acumen of players of all ages. A simulation-style game, "Zoo Tycoon" challenges players to turn a bunch of animals into a million (or more) dollars by building a personal and profitable animal park. The fun of "Zoo Tycoon" is building a thriving zoo business where zoo popularity and profitability depend on several factors: proper animal care, appropriate habitats, diverse and entertaining attractions, exotic animals, an affordable entry price and a satisfying number of zoo amenities ranging from gift shops and food options to benches and bathrooms. Ultimate success depends on a player's ability to keep the animals happy.
