Fun:
Wildlife Tycoon Venture Africa is very enjoyable. Don't think it as a copy of Zoo Tycoon, because it isn't. You have to create a thriving ecosystem in Africa. You can add lions, elephants, zebras, giraffes, hyenas etc. You can be the animal, and can either hunt your prey or flee from predators. Young children might find it upsetting, because animals do die. The only thing I criticise about this game is that when you need to get a certain number animals, and you are just one animal away from succcess, and then suddenly they all start dying. This only happens occasionaly though. So if you are not a squeamish person, than this is the game for you.

A must buy!
7 Jun 2006
Fun:
This is an amazing game in which the player gets to create their own ecosystem. They must learn to balance life (for example, make sure there are enough zebras for the lions to eat but also enough so they can breed and increase herd size) while making sure each animal's requirements for food and water are met. Wildlife Tycoon is a great simulation game and will keep anybody who loves animals interested and excited while also making them think. This game is a must buy for any animal lover!

the africa game

"The following review is by Isabella (6 yrs) one of the younger members of dream factory compound:
"the game is a good game i like it a lot it has afrcan animals like lions and zebras and willdabeasts and elephants and many more. You drive them around by clicking your animal. place food and water to make your animals nice and cozy."
Parental comment: Maybe not her favorite. The purpose being to organize african animal care; feeding, watering, walking. I would recommend the 'Zoo Tycoon' over this. Tycoon has better interactive interface and activities.
