Planet Zoo 2 adds birds, fish and conservation, but menus frustrate

Planet Zoo 2 is a zoo-management game from Frontier Developments in which players build and run zoos.

The game adds fish, birds and nature reserves to the original mix of animals and attractions.

In its career mode, players manage several zoos and restore reserves in places including Sweden and Sumatra.

The reserves connect zoo work with conservation and releasing animals into the wild, though the reviewer found them less engaging to explore.

The game’s menus make routine tasks fiddly and tiring, as players move between zoos and reserves to select and transport animals.

The review praised the animals’ detailed appearance and the conservation theme, but judged that these strengths do not overcome the frustrating micromanagement.

What people are saying

PC Gamer reviewerReviewer
The animals are superstars, but they don't quite make up for the fiddly, frustrating micromanagement.

It's a noble idea, and what I admire most about Planet Zoo 2 is how seriously it takes its animals and the effort that goes into conservation
