The obvious Error on release aside. Wildlife Park 3 is actually a pretty enjoyable Tycoon game. Whilst it's no Zoo Tycoon 2 beater, It definately holds its own in the Zoo Management genre, and is definately better than the recent Zoo Tycoon effort that was released on 360/Xbone which is a pretty poor Zoo Tycoon game considering the title its meant to live up to.

Being a fan of this genre though, I thoroughly enjoy this game thus far, whilst I'm not expecting any expansions or miracles etc, I think its a damn good attempt at the Zoo management effort. The variation on the animals is a pretty neat idea, For those that have Played Zoo Tycoon 2, they will know that having 8 Elephants that all look the same can look like a copy/paste effort. I find the overall experience exactly what you'd expect from a game like Wildlife Park 3.

If people can overlook the negative reviews about the game considering they all pertain to the error which has since been fixed and won't happen again, It's definately worth grabbing a copy to waste a few hours.

I do like this one. Both Zoo Tycoon 2 and the Wildlife Park series are closely related. ZT2 seemed like it catered more towards children (adults loved it too) but it was fun and 3 expansions definately made it fantastic. After the falling out between Blu Byte and MS; the Zoo tycoon series at least on the PC was quietly shut. MS seems to get in to fights lol; look at Flight Simulator (X). Wildlife Park series catered more as a simulation and less "child like." I do love Zoo Tycoon 2 and Wildlife Park 3 (my favorite from the Wildlife series so far) but if both combined it would make an awsome game! I hope WP3 expands....hopefully a marine expansion. I miss Zoo Tycoon's Marine Mania :)
