User Comments about the Zoo Tycoon 2: Marine Mania Expansion

We have a Windows Vista 2007 program, when my daughter downloaded and started playing the screen "vibrated" and she said it wasn't like the game she played at her friends house. We bought Zoo Tycoon just for the Marine expansion pack-now she just plays with Zoo Tycoon only.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. This game is awesome.Not only do you get a lot of new Marine items but you get new regular items to(such as the black panther).I love taking care of and training the whales/other animals.The simplest zoo's get a lot of business, especially if your animals know a trick or two. It has better graphics, I still can't wait to see the graphics for ZT3 but I know it's just going to keep getting better and better.

The new aquarium buildings and all the ocean life are interesting aspects of the game to create realistic homes for your animals. The new animal shows are interesting to create. I like the new animals and the new features in this expansion. The animals in this expansion are like the others in the previous games, they keep you busy for many hours of fun. If you love the previous expansions you will love Marine Mania.

When I installed the game, my desktop icon disappeared. I'm sure there is a way to get it back.but the game is fun. I'm still going through the challenge games.I love the landscape paintbrush & that it doesn't cost money.

You can create shows with the dolphins and orcas, and some of the animals you can interact by riding them. This addition only enhances Zoo Tycoon 2. You can create marine biomes using walls, or just a natural water feature. It is a little difficult to set up the shows, because they won't perform unless they are perfectly happy in their environment, but it is worth the purchase.
