Version: Wildlife Tycoon: Venture Africa 1.04
"Love this game!"
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.
