Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
Using the Touch Screen, players tap the Nintendo DS stylus to swap the positions of animals on screen to create lines of three or more of the same type. These animals are then "captured", allowing other animals to fall into their place. This easy to pick-up and intuitive system is complimented by a unique look and design.

5.0 out of 5 stars The DS's Tetris, 2 Mar 2007

By	Stephen Allen "loppy_m" (Ballymena) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars

I love puzzle games. I own Tetris and Mr Driller for the DS and I think they're great, but I bought Zoo Keeper for half the price of either of these and it blows the competition away. For one thing you can actually play ZK with the stylus. Tetris and Mr. Driller play like slightly upgraded versions of their GBA versions. Good but hardly original. Zoo Keeper, on the other hand, is based on the 'Bejewelled' PC game which is designed to be played with the mouse, a puzzle game begging for the DS treatment.

More addictive than Polarium and Meteos combined, simpler to learn than Tetris, cuter graphics than Mr. Driller. In short, it's a brilliant game. There aren't too many playing options but the main modes are so awesome that that's not a problem. I've played the two-player version with my girlfriend (it's a one-cart 2 player mode, by the way) and it's lots of fun too.

In short, if you want DS's version of Tetris, *don't* buy Tetris DS, save yourself some money and buy this little gem.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than I expected, 12 Sep 2005

By	"jenniferhawkins" - See all my reviews

I recieved this game free in a bundle with my DS and I thought it was going to be fairly poor. I'm pleased to say that I was very wrong!
I also had Super Mario for the DS, but have played Zoo Keeper far more. I have what can only be described as an obsession with trying to beat all of my high scores! The best modes are Time Attack and Tokoton.
I also like the fact that you don't have to use the touch screen, you can also use the D-pad and other buttons. The only downside to this type of play is that it takes longer for you to move between animal combinations.
All in all, an excellent game and one that is definitely suitable for all ages.

4.0 out of 5 stars I've played worse games than this..., 2 Aug 2005

By	thevacantone (Scotland) - See all my reviews

This game is one of the most addictive games I have played in a long time. Though the graphics don't show the full potential of the NDS, the entire game is played using the very cool stylus and touch pad.

Zoo Keeper offers four different modes of play, plus the multiplayer version, where you are set different goals in each game. You advance in the game by matching vertical and/or horizontal lines of three or more animals.

The only downside is that after a while, the game can get repetitive as you're basically doing the same thing in each level, only with different targets.

However, this is the kind of game where you can get really obsessed about it, playing just so you can beat the highest score.

Perfect for people who love puzzle games such as tetris, this game is bejewelled with cute animals, hence better! It could have been better in its presentation and polish. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Zoo Keeper.......
is a simple, yet addictive game. It's a bit like tetris and you have to match the animals up as they fall. The graphics aren't particularly good, however that doesn't matter. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars about average
this is a good, fun, time-killing game.
The save system sucks- you can't save or pause in the middle of the game- and replayability is low. Read more
