In addition to the building aspects of the game, players can Be the Animal.

Version: Wildlife Tycoon: Venture Africa 1.04
Pros: The noises of the animals sound so realistic and there's nothing more fun than leading your own herd of zebras. There are 11 animals - and that really is more than enough to keep you entertained. Start playing and you'll see what I mean.
Aside from two explorers in a balloon, there 's no humans complaining about how they can't find dessert carts and I haven't come across any bugs so far.
Cons: I wish we could save games, but it really doesn't bother me.

Version: Wildlife Tycoon: Venture Africa 1.04
Pros: Not one for shoot 'em ups, or money ventures or careering around some track in a fast car/bike/boat whatever... this game is just what I was looking for. I can create an ecosystem on a series of different landscapes. Building up animal populations in sync with vegetation, water and predator/prey dynamics, I find fascinating, absorbing and addictive. Its great fun and though probably aimed more for a younger persons age group, I'm a forty plus person who just gets engrossed and submerged into the fun of it. I've had the game for over a year now... and still find it as great to play, if not more so as I try new strategies, as I did when I first got it.
Cons: The only small thing I would perhaps comment on here (and in my opinion it is only a small thing), is the graphics may not be as slick as some of the other games I have seen being used. But then this game was developed by a small company with a limited budget and the enjoyment of balancing the animals with each other and the food//water sources far outstrip any need for so called slickness.

Version: Wildlife Tycoon: Venture Africa 1.04
"It is something fun and is something aside from combat."
Pros: Seeing the lions chase zebras accross the plains is so real, you just can't get enough. Need for strategy and thinking. interaction between animals. the way it is so like a real ecosystem
Cons: graphics could be better but pros make up for it
