Zoo Tycoon is an entry in Microsoft's long-running zoo management series and the first game in the series for a console platform. In the Challenge mode, the player has to build a zoo from the ground up with short challenges. This includes designing the environment, building exhibits with important parts such as feeders, bathing stations, and various enrichments, taking care of the animals, managing finances, and keeping an eye on the visitors' happiness.
The gameplay is varied, allowing players to switch between a top-down mode for overall management, a third-person mode to explore the zoo on foot or using a buggie, and a first-person perspective for some activities and taking photographs while exploring. The game also features different modes, including Training mode (ten missions), Freeform mode (no pressure for money or research), and Campaign mode (twenty levels with long-term goals). Up to four players can work together simultaneously in these modes to build and maintain the zoo.
By doing well, experience is gained to level up (zoo fame) and access new possibilities. Many animals and structures need to be researched before they are used (only one at a time), and then they can be used in the zoo. The game also features a wide range of animals, including over 100 species, each with multiple varieties and different characteristics.
The Xbox One version of Product Name supports Kinect for some activities tied to specific animals. Players can use voice commands to interact with their virtual pets, such as washing them with a hose or feeding them fruit. The game also features a Zoopedia that provides information about each type of animal in the zoo.
