The Photo Mode and Zookeeper Mode were refined after developers found out that the player should be able to interact with the world while walking around.

The game's first person Guest Mode was added due to many fan requests to get 'closer' to the animals. Marketing materials showed an emphasis on 3D visuals, as well as the first person perspective and photo mode. The last mode, Freeform, allows the player create a zoo from scratch with unlimited money and access to all animals and items from the start.Īfter the success of Zoo Tycoon, a sequel was planned. In both of these modes, players will have limited money to manage and will start with limited access to animals and items, with more becoming available as zoo fame level increases. In Challenge mode, the player starts a zoo from scratch and will be given random challenges which can be accepted or rejected.

In Campaign mode, the player plays through a scenario in an existing zoo and is assigned different goals to complete, such as achieving a certain fame level, caring for rescued animals, or breeding endangered species.

Zoo Tycoon 2 features three gameplay modes: Campaign, Challenge and Freeform. Guests will visit the zoo to see the animals, and they also have needs that need to be fulfilled through scenery and buildings (hunger, thirst, bathroom, seating, entertainment). The gameplay revolves around creating suitable exhibits for animals through habitat modifications (ground cover, water, elevation, foliage and rocks and a variety of items including food, enrichment and shelter) which fulfill the animal's needs (habitat, hunger, thirst, stimulation, privacy, sleep, social, exercise). Similar to its predecessor, Zoo Tycoon, the objective is to build and operate a zoo by creating exhibits and aquariums, keeping guests and animals happy, and maintaining employees, finances, terrain, foliage and scenery.

A Nintendo DS version, titled Zoo Tycoon 2 DS, was released in 2008. Originally released for Microsoft Windows, Zoo Tycoon 2 is also available for Windows Mobile, PDA, and Mac OS X, although expansions are not included in the Mac version. Zoo Tycoon 2 is a business simulation video game developed by Blue Fang Games and published by Microsoft Game Studios and MacSoft.
