I apologise for not being able to contain my excitement about puppers and doggos - can't help myself! This episode ran a little long because I lost track of time! Hope y'all don't mind =) Sidebar - make sure you check out the community discord linked in the description, and follow me on Twitter (also in the description) for any updates to schedules etc. Cheers!
I don't think placing the speaker in the place is a good idea, although i don't know whether it's a thing in the game or not, but IRL animals get distressed when they encounter constant noise.
1. Get a gold rated breeding pair in your exhibit as they sell for a lot of money. The Brazilian spiders and Poison frogs breed quickly and sell for a good price. It'll help with your cash. 2. Get a walkthrough tortoise exhibit at the front of your zoo. Guest number will increase if habitats are at front. Also Tortoise have a high appeal. 3. Keep the info at front and the food and drinks at the back near wolfs 4. Set the mechanic, vet and keeper's visiting schedule in your habitats to every month which will fix all problems with the habitat such as wall maintenance. 5. Train your vets, keeper's and mechanics to work faster. 6. Add conservation boards in your zoo to increase education. Place them strategically near donation bins as guests stop to read it. Anyways love your content. Keep it up.
In my experience playing franchise mode, an easy way to start and establish a steady flow of income that allows you down the road to do freely anything is start with 2 to 3 insect exhibits that allows quick breeding turnover thus making money by selling them on the market. Took me less than 2 years to have 3 quick breeding species that will guarantee gold quality and expand to 15 exhibits of critters that keep churning out more bugs and snakes. By year 6 in my game now I have 150k and 2 pairs of tapirs / wild dogs and 1 breeding pair of pangolins.
Please train your staff, when you clicked on the mechanic he said he needed more training to be able to do all this work. Poor tired chap. :D I like the idea of grizzlies, but I don't know about bison underground, seems weird. Also shouldn't there be an exhibit or enclosure or a walkthrough enclosure near the entrance? People are walking miles before they get to see anything. And please give your puppers more space; I love when they're 100% happy. So cute!
okey, this is a great series keep it up buddy! As you said you read the comment, here are my thoughts: 1- please put speakers everywhere around pit which you should have put at the beginning. your education level is steadily low. 2- the biggest problem with the pit is, the wooden road people are walking on should be completely next to the pit. there should not be a distance between them. so people will have much better view with a fancy fence. In our case there are lots of dead spots. 3- I suspect pit area will be enough in future. idk how to solve this honestly :) 4- train the staff, you miss it all the times :)
Great pointers! I was hoping that speakers were a choice rather than a necessity, but it seems I was mistaken on that front. And regarding the staff training - definitely something I should do. I was just worried about the associated raises vs. my current financial situation!
For the temperature controls that reach out of the habitat, I'd raise the temperature closer to the warmer side of what is comfortable for the wolves, so that people aren't in a hurry to leave that area.
to save on cash, and to help hide the staff buildings, you can move the trees that are surrounding your zoo, you wont have to buy them and you can use them to hide the buildings and make the guests more happy :)
Wolf fact 3: The most iconic wolves' feature - their howl - is used for a wide variety of purposes outside of territorial claims and attack signals, for example, warning pack members about threats or looking for a pack to join in. In variety of tones they easily outclass opera singers, not to mention that their howl includes frequencies, unheard by human ear.
Hey Party. Absolutely loving the new show and that you started with Timber Wolves, I love them. I think the park is coming along nicely but way to slowly, you are missing some necesarry things! There is way too little bins for trash, you will have a big problem with littering as you grow and lights, people can't see anythhing in your zoo at night until they reach the cave XD A little funny but true. Also you really need to expand the Timber wolf enclosure because as you get more pups they need more space, you should get it a little beyond 100% so it will not be a problem. You also need to get the fence right next to the road because the grass counts as non-walkable surface, they can still acces interactable objects on the grass like bins and information signs but they can't walk up to the fence and look over. Here's a tip for greater viewing experience for the guests and getting more money, switch out small part of the fence with glass by the donation boxes, it looks neat but also lets them get a better view and gathers them at the place of the glass. And don't forget to update the sign with the names of the wolves, we have a little pupper now afterall =D I agree with you on the ballon shop, it's not great, shut it down for now. One more important thing, train your workers so they can do their job effeciently and get another staffroom so they are not walking around waiting on a chance for a break. Otherwise it seem to be going great for you, keep it up man, these are all suggestions and things I think will work better for you but you do as you want, it is entertaining to watch you play afterall =) Cheers from Sweden!
All those boards you have are rather info boards not education boards. Try putting one speaker in vicinity of each board with 50 percent volume and your educational zoo value will go high in a sec. And its a great job with the wolves den it looks great. I have to do something like that in my run of the game. :)
You should probably remove the barrier that you made and replace it with an actual barrier (like glass). Also having the path closer will help the view for the guests.
exactly the view wasn't good because the walkways should be up against the fence/exhibit. People were standing on the walkway but they were back too far.
Party: Animal Habitat food for thought! Although they might not be native to America you could probably thematically include some animals from Russia/Eastern Europe. The timber wolves exist in both those areas so it's not unrealistic to see at least those animals in close habitats proximity
This is true! I'll definitely see how that fits into our central area because it's quite clear that there aren't that many North American taiga/tundra animals to choose from!
I have found that getting rid of normal feeders once you have food enrichment down saves a bit of money. Also you can charge people to use your wonderful toilets XD The speaker can go inside the habitat too. Edit: Also, only put enough toy and food enrichment down for their happiness, and change them around every now and then, so they don't get bored with them.
Please don't apologise for liking those little details, it's what makes your channel special, I've subscribed to your channel since you've played dawn of man, and the only complain I had was you just go in showcasing features of games, we can do that by ourselves, you should enjoy playing a game, when you follow around that pup for a bit, it makes every person, that watches this video, smile! And that's what you should do more of!! And you've grown a real great channel! Keep it up😄😄
Those information boards should have a speaker under them. You should be able to click on it and choose the right info. Education should then go up if they are next to it.
Make sure your paths are as close go the fence as possible. Dont leave grass between the fence and the path as the poepople wont be able to look down in to the pit. Just make the paths wonky. It will look more realistic as zoos have wonky pats soruinding the animals and it will give the popople a better view. Put speakers everywhere. Lights inside the wolf pit. On the trees for exaple to light up surten areas of the pit. Focus on training staff. Everything dosnt have to be symetrical and perfect, it looks unrealistic that way. Love the series keep it up :)
You could save some money by not forcing permanent "winter" on the wolves. They're good between -8°C and 29°C (i.e. from 18°F to 84°F), and since your park is already in their natural range, you shouldn't have to do much for that. Similarly, you can probably turn off the heaters once it's not snowing outside.
Ah great micromanagement thoughts that could make quite a difference! I'd assumed heaters/coolers turned off when the ambient temp. was their standard temp, but you're right!
I'm gonna save you a lot of struggle that I had to go through learning this games finances. 1. Work Zones are your best friend. A centralized work place is fine for vets, caretakers, and security. Mechanics and Keepers do best with a few small areas scattered around. 2. Promote staff before you hire new ones. It's cheaper to promote and train who you have then it is to get new people and having an army of incompetent employees won't solve most problems.
Also the sudden money drop seems to be a change in month. When I looked at my finances those normally happen with large ongoing expenses racking up together.
I'm really enjoying your Planet Zoo playthrough! Watching and vicariously playing alongside you makes me feel less alone. :') I hope you buy a DLC or two and continue with the series! I love how much progress you make in the 1hr and your animal care mixed with your actual zoo caretaking is really well balanced ^-^ ❤ Much love!
Just watched all the episodes for this series and I'm loving it so far! How can you not get excited about the puppers? THEY'RE SO CUTE! 🐺❤ I agree with some of the others about training your staff! They become so much more efficient (at least I've noticed that in other people's LPs) ALSO... I think it'd be really cool if the grizzly bear exhibit was above ground, but you can see them underground in the cave AND you could walk over top the habitat (maybe)... I think it has potential to look really cool. The cave could add some height and dimension to the park Cannot wait to see how the zoo grows!!
Ah that's an interesting thought with the grizzly exhibit. Will see if the terrain cooperates with my digging! And yeah definitely need to train my staff ... And get more staff on top of that!
Someone has already said it, but I am going to reiterate this...take the path all the way up to the fencing so people can see, and this includes that area in the tunnel. Additionally, if you want more people in the tunnel, slope the terrain in front of the viewing glass more so people can see the animals from the tunnel. The way it stands right now, you can't see a thing over the top edge of the hill, so unless the wolves are lying down right in front of the glass, your guests won't be happy. Just decreasing that slope a little bit and smoothing it out would allow your guests to look out and see the wolves further away from the glass while still looking up at them the way you said you want them too. Another good trick is to put your food and water near the viewing areas. Idk if this game has it, but in Zoo Tycoon there is Guest mode you can go into where you can actually view everything from the path the same way the guests would see it, so you can tell if fencing is too high or if the terrain/scenery blocks the view. If this game has that kind of mode, take a moment to tour your enclosure viewing area so you can get an idea of what guests are seeing...or not seeing.
It doesn't matter sadly. The radius around the staff buildings goes through everything. So even if you build a 6m high wall guests will still be bothered by it. Which sucks, because it makes it SOOO much harder to set staff and guests up so both will be happy with the placement. You'd almost have to do what he's doing and hide any staff buildings under habitats. Though you could also likely go and put them over exhibits as well.
The guests doesn't walk on grass and you might wanna check the null barrier if that may be hindering them from getting closer. You really need two mechanics because if one is doing research he won't stop to go fix something. Sunken bear enclosure and exhibits underground is cool, but if you getting bison and that they should really be on ground level.
lol i love this as im watching im also playing planet zoo and his timber wolf was born as my arctic wolf also gave birth! and his wolf and my wolf both gave birth on year 2
I am absolutely loving this series Party! I can't wait until the next episode where you hopefully start on the Grizzly Bear exhibit. Keep up the great work. :)
Wow, the more of your videos I watch, the more and more impressed I get with this game! The sheer amount of detail in every little thing is just mindblowing. They even modeled the inside of the staff buildings which is just insane.
I didn't watch the episode yet, but I dearly hope that he has turned up the temperature for the doggos, I freeze along with them watching each video. XD
Very nice work to details but I would like to see the toilets to have "wc" letters above and the staff area walled and gated and hidden for the visitors! Gj anyway!
The cost to operate the temperature control thingy can get pretty steep in the beginning, your wolves will manage just fine without (based on current tempt anyway) may be you can remove 1 or 2 to save the cost and add them back later along the run
I just found your channel because I was looking for someone playing Planet zoo with a few parts under their belt and a voice/play style that didn't drive me crazy. I'm please to say i'm about 3 hours deep in my binge watching and you just got yourself a new subscriber :) keep up the great work and quality content love
If you want to expand the wolf exhibit you could always turn one of your current paths into a bridge, and have the wolves able to pass underneath the guests. Suddenly the wolves will have much more roamable space. If the game has any glass walkways those should definately be part of the bridge at some point! (Not everywhere though, as some guests could be afraid of heights) I've made maybe two comments in all my years of youtube, and suddenly I've commented three times on this video, and I still have 20 minutes left. This Let's Play tickles an itch I didn't know I had...
The animators did a great job with the animal models and animation. The floaty pupper is hella cute ;) BTW: Doesn't the exhibit need a staff path for feeding/cleaning?
Danielle Oliver they don’t have to be, you can have the start of the path as a staff path so that customers don’t go down it, then change it back to normal path.
One of the best things of this playthrough is the experience design/environment design aspect of it. The path/exhibit/decor/user interaction is wonderful. Remember to check for a 2nd Rattlesnake, and I would agree with the 2nd food court at the end of the underground path. Regarding Education, maybe it would improve by making the screens work in tandem with the ed. speakers. It seems to work in the corner. Maybe put some low volume speakers in the cave?
Glad to hear it! That's something I'm hoping will help my franchise stand out =D. And I think yes I need more speakers it seems - many seem to be suggesting that. I was hoping it was a choice rather than a necessity but... here we are!
I love your vids and I love this series, but I dont have planet zoo I have been dreaming of planet zoo in my life thank you for doing that, someone playing planet zoo makes me happy :) Thanks love your vids.
An alternative to how the "pit" model of habitat can work, is to just build a path over it. People love it, can see clearly, no extra fence needed. Works also great in situations where the animal is so dangerous, that you just cant put a glass wall for people to see it.
Two recommendations. 1. To add some cash flow. Get some Gila Monsters, if you pair a male/female they reproduce like crazy and you can sell the offspring for 500 to 1k+ a pop. 2. Train your staff constantly. It’s cheaper than hiring and will increase research speed/efficiency. 5 star vets/keepers are super efficient.
Definitely been hearing a fair bit of staff training being recommended! Must do. I've also heard a few different exhibit animals that might be handy, as well as tortoises!
I just started playing Planet Zoo. I can relate to the love of animals. Both of my original Bengal Tigers (my favorite wild animal) died & I almost cried. I'm a softy. :)
Consider taking a look at your cooler units. There are gaps inside the enclosure where they don’t meet up and half of them bleed into visitor paths. Happy visitors=more donations
It also helps to put to education signs like stands that have different educational info like anti littering or global warming awareness. Helps with litter and education.
I wish there was a semi-realistic option(and hope they would add it). As in: In real life, a Zoo does not open with nothing in it and a tiny budget to be able to make one enclosure and than operates like that...at least as well as I know. I am pretty sure Zoo's would get a huge starting budget, build up to several enclosures/themes/decorations first, and than open. There could be an option in the game to start the franchise with a big budget that is enough to build out an area with multiple enclosures and properly decorare it/add staff buildings/guest buildings/props ect, and THAN open it... so a semi-realistic way, you have something you start with, not just one type of animal and nothing but bare-walled buildings.
I apologise for not being able to contain my excitement about puppers and doggos - can't help myself! This episode ran a little long because I lost track of time! Hope y'all don't mind =)

People are also cold because the ac reached the walkways
@@angelalchemist1550 yes it's causing them to shiver in warm days as well, as was the case with that girl who found his park the best.
PartyElite tortoises breed real much baby tortoises, and if you sell them or set them out in the wild you get a lot of conservation points
You are not human if you dont get excited, so dont apologize 😂👏
1. Get a gold rated breeding pair in your exhibit as they sell for a lot of money. The Brazilian spiders and Poison frogs breed quickly and sell for a good price. It'll help with your cash.
2. Get a walkthrough tortoise exhibit at the front of your zoo. Guest number will increase if habitats are at front. Also Tortoise have a high appeal.
3. Keep the info at front and the food and drinks at the back near wolfs
4. Set the mechanic, vet and keeper's visiting schedule in your habitats to every month which will fix all problems with the habitat such as wall maintenance.
5. Train your vets, keeper's and mechanics to work faster.
6. Add conservation boards in your zoo to increase education. Place them strategically near donation bins as guests stop to read it.
Anyways love your content. Keep it up.
How do you train your staff?
This is amazing info
thanks for sharing
@@lycon7000 there is an arrow near their payment in the staff area
Wowwy that’s a lot of knowledge.
Move the walkway over to the fences so people can see over. No one walks on the grass.
Chill no one's making any rules just suggestions
Zoe Norman bruh what’s your problem
@Zoe Norman yup just chill bro you arent going to aggro anyone if thats what you trying to do
Put the antelope and the bision together because space,they like each other, and they make more money when together

For the temperature controls that reach out of the habitat, I'd raise the temperature closer to the warmer side of what is comfortable for the wolves, so that people aren't in a hurry to leave that area.
I think getting grizzly bears is a good idea. So happy with how the underground system looks, love the blue lights!
Amelie Cane grizzle bears for sure
A yes an animal that's expensive needs alot of space needs good enrichment needs expensive food IN THE EARLY GAME

I personally prefer custom barriers. It looks less boring
No one:
Absolutely nobody:
Party Elite: Alright, fair enough
Rebekah Scott new drinking game. Take a shot every time he says “‘fair enough”
Didn’t think I would like this but actually loving it.
Glad to have subverted your expectations =D
Your transformer wasn't connected to the path, so the mechanic couldn't get there.
Trashcans are called bins :D
I think you may need to snap the walk ways to the fencing around the enclosures. Or they are too far.
exactly the view wasn't good because the walkways should be up against the fence/exhibit. People were standing on the walkway but they were back too far.
Party: Animal Habitat food for thought! Although they might not be native to America you could probably thematically include some animals from Russia/Eastern Europe. The timber wolves exist in both those areas so it's not unrealistic to see at least those animals in close habitats proximity

This is the let's play I didn't know i wanted
Honestly the first episode got me into it and I am gonna watch till the 100th lol and if ur reading this have a great day
I’m rewatching from ep 1 lol. it’s definitely worth it
If you ever get flamingos, they breed quite a lot you can have up to 10-500 of them! They do not mind about gender either ^^
The instant drop in funds is probably employee payday.
Ok...here's what I think you need to do:
1. Train some goblin wolf riders
2. Cycle charge into your guests
3. ?
4. Profit!
Hot tip - thanks! Was getting worried about the financial situation =P

Those information boards should have a speaker under them. You should be able to click on it and choose the right info. Education should then go up if they are next to it.
Yeah definitely starting to realize that the boards alone are simply not enough!
omg the frame rate in these older episodes is amazing :>
You need speakers🔊🔊 for education and set it to wolves so ppl can view the wolves as rhey listen
I love how serious and caring he is towards his animals
Make sure your paths are as close go the fence as possible. Dont leave grass between the fence and the path as the poepople wont be able to look down in to the pit. Just make the paths wonky. It will look more realistic as zoos have wonky pats soruinding the animals and it will give the popople a better view.

I'm gonna save you a lot of struggle that I had to go through learning this games finances. 1. Work Zones are your best friend. A centralized work place is fine for vets, caretakers, and security.

Thanks for the pointers! Been hesitant about training staff, but I guess the benefits outweigh the (literal) costs!
In 56:21"this zoo is the best!, YOU DAMN RIGHT" best clip ever
in stead of buying trees, use the ones that all ready come on the land by the entrance or thats far out on the land
You need trash bins and if you want to save money get rid of the security guard and vet until you need them.
Lmfaooo!!!! Snowing like crazy and the only heater is behind the ATM 🤣🤣 funny guy!
I'm really enjoying your Planet Zoo playthrough! Watching and vicariously playing alongside you makes me feel less alone. :')
I hope you buy a DLC or two and continue with the series!
I love how much progress you make in the 1hr and your animal care mixed with your actual zoo caretaking is really well balanced ^-^ ❤ Much love!
This series was 3 years ago 😅
I can’t get enough of this series, hope it lasts and wanting to see the franchise thrive
For sure! Having too much fun with it =). And if this zoo crashes and burns, we'll just open up another one!
Good
Great series PartyElite, i love the feeling of your snowy cold remote serene zoo, gives me calm vibes, keep it up!
You need to turn on the speakers in the cave and add more around the exhibit
Episode #3: Elite Finally Places His First Trash Bins.

Put trees around the Steff billing so the guess can't see them
It doesn't matter sadly. The radius around the staff buildings goes through everything. So even if you build a 6m high wall guests will still be bothered by it. Which sucks, because it makes it SOOO much harder to set staff and guests up so both will be happy with the placement. You'd almost have to do what he's doing and hide any staff buildings under habitats. Though you could also likely go and put them over exhibits as well.
The guests doesn't walk on grass and you might wanna check the null barrier if that may be hindering them from getting closer.
You really need two mechanics because if one is doing research he won't stop to go fix something.
Sunken bear enclosure and exhibits underground is cool, but if you getting bison and that they should really be on ground level.
My heart exploded hearing you gush over the baby pupper. 😍🥹
Please do some other exhibits I’m serious because ur gonna go bankrupt.
I love the lighting color you chose for the underground wolf viewing area. It reminds me of the Northern Lights!
you can put the range of the heaters up so they cover more of the park
lol i love this as im watching im also playing planet zoo and his timber wolf was born as my arctic wolf also gave birth! and his wolf and my wolf both gave birth on year 2
I am absolutely loving this series Party! I can't wait until the next episode where you hopefully start on the Grizzly Bear exhibit. Keep up the great work. :)
NOW i have to buy it, its soooooo cute. I want a baby wolf
Wow, the more of your videos I watch, the more and more impressed I get with this game! The sheer amount of detail in every little thing is just mindblowing. They even modeled the inside of the staff buildings which is just insane.
"I want to be a grizzly bear when I grow up"
-A furry, probably.
33:20 - 34:00 you sounded so much more happy once you had a break from recording!
I really want to play the game now but im gonna have to wait till all is more stable. Looks promising and has a lot of potential!
I didn't watch the episode yet, but I dearly hope that he has turned up the temperature for the doggos, I freeze along with them watching each video. XD
If you look up timber wolves they actually love low temperatures! Also, the temperature in his zoo is measured in Celsius :)
Very nice work to details but I would like to see the toilets to have "wc" letters above and the staff area walled and gated and hidden for the visitors! Gj anyway!
Love the episode! Never apologize for loving puppers!
The cost to operate the temperature control thingy can get pretty steep in the beginning, your wolves will manage just fine without (based on current tempt anyway) may be you can remove 1 or 2 to save the cost and add them back later along the run
I just found your channel because I was looking for someone playing Planet zoo with a few parts under their belt and a voice/play style that didn't drive me crazy. I'm please to say i'm about 3 hours deep in my binge watching and you just got yourself a new subscriber :) keep up the great work and quality content love
If you want to expand the wolf exhibit you could always turn one of your current paths into a bridge, and have the wolves able to pass underneath the guests. Suddenly the wolves will have much more roamable space. If the game has any glass walkways those should definately be part of the bridge at some point! (Not everywhere though, as some guests could be afraid of heights)
I've made maybe two comments in all my years of youtube, and suddenly I've commented three times on this video, and I still have 20 minutes left. This Let's Play tickles an itch I didn't know I had...
The animators did a great job with the animal models and animation. The floaty pupper is hella cute ;)
BTW: Doesn't the exhibit need a staff path for feeding/cleaning?
Staff can use the normal passes.
Mohsen Asgary all the paths to staff centres and gates should be staff only
Danielle Oliver they don’t have to be, you can have the start of the path as a staff path so that customers don’t go down it, then change it back to normal path.
Did you know the more you research you will get more of a appropriate food as well.
"It's May! and its snowing!" Your zoo must be in colorado XD
I was thinking the same thing when the puppy wolf howled, your reaction just hooked me for the wholeseries
One of the best things of this playthrough is the experience design/environment design aspect of it. The path/exhibit/decor/user interaction is wonderful.
Remember to check for a 2nd Rattlesnake, and I would agree with the 2nd food court at the end of the underground path.
Regarding Education, maybe it would improve by making the screens work in tandem with the ed. speakers. It seems to work in the corner. Maybe put some low volume speakers in the cave?
Glad to hear it! That's something I'm hoping will help my franchise stand out =D.
And I think yes I need more speakers it seems - many seem to be suggesting that. I was hoping it was a choice rather than a necessity but... here we are!
I love your vids and I love this series, but I dont have planet zoo I have been dreaming of planet zoo in my life thank you for doing that, someone playing planet zoo makes me happy :) Thanks love your vids.
An alternative to how the "pit" model of habitat can work, is to just build a path over it. People love it, can see clearly, no extra fence needed.
Works also great in situations where the animal is so dangerous, that you just cant put a glass wall for people to see it.
Wait... Did I see what I think I saw at 31:33 ? You can make people PAY for the toilets ? This... This is awesome !
The amount of detail you put in is incredible considering how little money you have! LOL I really need to get into customization more.
Two recommendations. 1. To add some cash flow. Get some Gila Monsters, if you pair a male/female they reproduce like crazy and you can sell the offspring for 500 to 1k+ a pop. 2. Train your staff constantly. It’s cheaper than hiring and will increase research speed/efficiency. 5 star vets/keepers are super efficient.
Definitely been hearing a fair bit of staff training being recommended! Must do. I've also heard a few different exhibit animals that might be handy, as well as tortoises!
If a caretaker is in a work zone I don't think they'll clean up trash
I think you need to put the best food for the wolfs
I just started playing Planet Zoo. I can relate to the love of animals. Both of my original Bengal Tigers (my favorite wild animal) died & I almost cried. I'm a softy. :)
What ever happened to the other Wolf you purchased? Is it still in the trade centre? Poor girl LOL
Im liking these episoded Party its also a great way to check if the game is something i would like to buy.
I need to get a PC soon I really want to play this game
i want to upgrade my pc too, this system req is quite demanding for this game.
That's why I love this series, since it's an alternative of basically playing this game. (I only own macbook laptop.)
Did anyone else see when his money dropped to $100 at the moment the electricity broke?!
“It’s may and it’s snowing” welcome to Wisconsin
And Norway XD
If you locate that special visitor, from your friends list, and wave at him, you get 20 cons. Points
Consider taking a look at your cooler units. There are gaps inside the enclosure where they don’t meet up and half of them bleed into visitor paths. Happy visitors=more donations
Put a speaker in the underground part of wolf rock
I enjoy the parts of you scrolling the menus and different options you have, I hope they continue.
It also helps to put to education signs like stands that have different educational info like anti littering or global warming awareness. Helps with litter and education.
Amazing!! I love it, your layouts are straight up fascinating. Keep going PARTYELITE ! So exciting.
Your glass is breaking in the Wolf enclosure
You need educational speaker to up the education rating!! Also I love you videos keep up the great work!! 👍
Love how he missed like two recycling bins
I wish there was a semi-realistic option(and hope they would add it). As in: In real life, a Zoo does not open with nothing in it and a tiny budget to be able to make one enclosure and than operates like that...at least as well as I know. I am pretty sure Zoo's would get a huge starting budget, build up to several enclosures/themes/decorations first, and than open. There could be an option in the game to start the franchise with a big budget that is enough to build out an area with multiple enclosures and properly decorare it/add staff buildings/guest buildings/props ect, and THAN open it... so a semi-realistic way, you have something you start with, not just one type of animal and nothing but bare-walled buildings.
Please please keep doing more.. i could watch this series for ever. I love to watch a episode of 2 before i sleep!
Theres an option to allign paths to exibits and if you done that it means they can get closer to actually see the good views 🤷♀️
I love that “ mysterious I’m in a cave feel”
Workers stealing from the cash register xD
