I really
had fun playing with Dinosaur Digs. This expansion pack brings some cool new
content as well as new ways to make your zoo grow and evolve. The dinosaurs
theme is quite original and the new scenarios are entertaining enough to
bring back interest in the original game even if the graphics haven’t really
changed. Some will regret the lack of real new features and the overall
smallness of this pack. Nonetheless this pack remains a great addition to
Zoo Tycoon and is a must have for fans.
