Over 110 New Shops and Decorations
Let your guests step into a brand new world with new themed shops, decorations, signs and pathways to bring this new breed of zoo to life! Take inspiration from your new critters and show off their wild environments throughout your zoo, from giant corals to slimy seaweed!

WHAT'S NEW AT THE ZOO - SLOTHS & SPAS UPDATE
Sloths!
Just as the name suggests, our adorable update Sloths & Spas features the cutest lazybones animal there is, alongside a new game mechanic to keep you and your zoo building on your toes.
Attractions and Attraction Meter
Our update brings in Attractions - a new category of buildings that come to the game introducing a new 'Attraction' meter that determines Visitors’ need for well-being attractions. Implemented within the main game, Dino Island DLC and approaching Aquarium DLC.
From a cheeky Capybara Spa visit in order to rejuvenate during their zoo voyage or a quick nap at the Sloth Hotel - make sure you keep your guests happy and excited to try them all!
Additionally, on top of these updates, we are bringing a handful of bug fixes. Enjoy!
