African Adventure: Is It Worth The Money? July 6, 2006
21 out of 22 found this review helpful
Though I always enjoy Zoo Tycoon 2, African Adventure is often more expensive than its worth. Its Expansion Pack Companion, Endangered Species, is of much better value.
African Adventure adds these animals: Aardvark, African Buffalo, African Spurred Tortoise, Barbary Ape, Bong, Caracal, Ethiopian Wolf, Gelada, Gerenuk(very cute!), Mandrill, Masai Giraffe, Meerkat, Nile Moniter, Pygmy Hippo, Ratel,Secretary Bird, Striped Hyena, Warthog, White Rhino, and the Wildebeest.
There are a few other features, including 'new' themes, campaigns, challenges, and Maps.
Though I enjoyed this game, I would definitly recommend Endangered Species vs. African Adventure
 Like the game, the expansion isn't that great July 4, 2006

My 8 year old really loved the original zoo tycoon as well as the expansions. So when Zoo Tycoon 2 came out I was the first to buy it. The game was a big improvement, and he loved it even more. But the one thing he and I both noticed was the lack of certain basic zoo animals. I realized that the maker of the game might have purposely kept things skimpy so that they could cash in on expansion packs. I didn't mind the first expansion because it did add a lot of content to the game, this pack doesn't really give you a whole lot for your money. Now I am waiting for the inevitable dinosaur and water expansion packs. Hopefully they will give a little more for my dollar than this one did.
 African Adventure Add-On to MS Zoo Tycoon 2 July 2, 2006

This second add-on to Zoo Tycoon 2 includes new animals and new habitats that increase the versatility of the game. My 11 year old daughter and her friends love the ability to design and manage their own zoos. Non-violent and educational.

I love this game. The African Adventure theme is great. A must have edition to the Zoo Tycoon 2 Series!

I'm about to list all you get in this "Expansion" pack:
1. Repainted Jeep.
2. Several repainted animals listed as "new" animals.
And that's ALL. Did fans make this?? The information on the animals is all wrong too! The ethiopian wolf's biome is listed as alpine! (Not to mention it is merely a recolored gray wolf!) The hyena is not even related to canines and even it is simply a recolored wolf! This is a shameful joke! Have all video game companies sunk to this level?
