The controls are clunky, sound is aweful... not something worth getting.

Not that bad, though I have not played that long. I could see it getting pretty repetitive placing the same things over and over. Not that many things to do, but if its updated frequently with better changes it might be great.

Okay, I bought this game myself, when I was maybe 8/9?
I don't think it is a spin off of Wildlife Park, Infact, Wildlife Park is almost a spin off of this. Origionally this was created for young horse mad children to play. However the lay out of this Version is a LOT different to the game I used to play.
For that reason I am not a fan, they have taken this game and swapped it so Wildlife Park looks and handles better, but this used to run on the same board and systems that that does...
I still enjoy it, even nearing my 21st Birthday, If I find my version of it, ever, I will definately be reinstalling on my PC and playing that instead of this.

This Game holds childhood memories for me, so I enjoy to play it a lot. It wasn't published in 2017, but way before that (2006)
It therefore of course is a bit simpler than todays games. As they don't mention in the description that it's a vintage game, i can understand why people are writing bad reviews.
You play as the owner of a themepark for domesticated animals and try to build your zoo up from scratch. I never had problems with the game not working, but as the gamequide isn't that detailed you have to figure out for yourself how things work sometimes. The music can be a bit annoying over time, so i simply turn it off most of the time.
To people who search for a cute 'vintage' zoo builder game and like the graphics, i would recommend. Just know that this is a game from around 2006 and therefore a bit simpler.

So far I played the 3 tasks or so in the tutorial. I recommend doing the tutorial first. The game seems pretty decent so far. There are a variety of buildings to choose from and they interact together.
You design the farm areas, satisfy your guests, and they buy different products which help you make money. All the animals and guests have various needs.
There are some different maps to choose from, and the mape size seems ok; although it could be bigger. I did just find one 'large' size map which I'm going to try now; it did look like it's a pretty good size.
For the price I'd say pick it up; I'm still learning all the game has, but it's pretty fun so far.

Passes itself off as a farm game, when in reality, it's a knockoff of something like zoo tycoon, but with domesticated farm animals. I've requested a refund.

I was happy to buy the game but could not get past several issues.
First the sound was always cutting out ever second or two and I could not fix it.
Next when starting the game the tutorial selection screen had text cut off so you could not read or select some options.
I would have given it a chance but even the devs game site has no contact link to send the messages.
I do not recommend this game.
I have requested a refund.

A truely disappointing game.
I understand now why there's no trailer. If they added a trailer then they wouldn't be able to fool you into thinking you're getting a farming game.
Best to play this game is silence as the repetative noises will drive you crazy.
I thought I was getting a farming game. What I got is somekind of zoo tycoon farm game. You have to make paths for people to come look at your "farm" and sell fruit/veggies to them to make money, if that's even possible in this game. No people coming to visit, no making money. With my limited play time, I was unable to make any money at all.
The UI is what's you'd expect from the 90s. Only the main menu buttons have mouse text over so you can see what they are. All the submenus don't have this, this leaves you with clicking on everything to try to figure out what it is. Some buttons I had no clue what they did. Had they atleast added mouse over text for everything then it would have been a more enjoyable game. As it is, it just a pain. I tried the tutorial but got lost, randomly clicking buttons until I hit the right one. And once you close the tutorial it won't open back up until you do the correct action.
After planting one of everything, I found out that the weather affects what will grow and what won't. That would have been nice to know in the menu when you go select something. Oddly there's more trees then there are crops to plant. Once an animal is starving, you're forced to view it, well atleast you get to watch it die from stupidity. It took me forever to figure out that you have to plant certain decorations that eventually give hay. What idiot thought this up? Oh, here's another brilliant idea, you must plant sunflowers to get grain.
Everytime after you place something, the cursor centers. As a result of this, I often place items where I didn't want them to go.
Don't forget to build lots of fences otherwise animals will attack guests. Although since you can't see behind some buildings and trees, it's easy to miss a spot. I eventually got to the point where I was hoping to see someone get attacked by an animal, no such luck.
Only after placing the garder did the farmer actually do some work. And this was expalined where? Otherwise the farmer just stands around doing nothing.
Placing anything is a nightmare, often placing it somewhere where you don't want it to go. Terraforming is a total pain in the you know what.
Even the common idiot knows how bees work. But in this game they're just like your animals. You have to have them fenced off, and you have to buy 1 male and 1 female and then you have to figure out how the hell to feed them. Mine just flew around until they died. Also they tend to get stuck, so then these must be some sort of crawling bees.
Once an animal gets out of a fence, you can't get it back to the fenced area.
Only comes with premade maps, 6 small, 2 medium and 2 large. No option for random maps.
I would avoid this one since it looks abandoned. I'm really disgusted by games like this.

i have tried everything to make money in this game. my silos are full of fruit and grains. Miller is working and products being delivered to shops (fruit dinks and bakery) i still cannot get people to buy from ANY shops. Please fix this. People complain they are thirsty. The shop IS open and I have set the price fo a dollar with a cash machine beside it. Until this is fixed I cannot recommend the game.
