SimSafari is a popular zoo simulation and wildlife park management game first released in 2002. In SimSafari, players take on the role of a zoo director tasked with building their own zoo from the ground up.
The core gameplay revolves around designing zoo enclosures and habitats, caring for a variety of exotic animals, and keeping guests happy by meeting their needs. Players start with an empty plot of land and must strategically build exhibits, food stalls, bathrooms, pathways, and guest amenities within a set budget.
Over 50 realistic animal species are included in SimSafari, from cuddly pandas and playful monkeys to impressive elephants, fierce lions, and more. As zoo director, players are responsible for the health, nutrition, and happiness of their animals by providing enrichment items and high quality care. The game features realistic animal behavior, life cycles, and needs.
On the guest services side, players maintain facilities, hire staff, and manage finances to turn their zoo into a popular, profitable attraction.
