ZOO Mumba is an online game but you are playing alone, nobody gives or sells animals or if you have very, very good friends they can buy you some ZOO dollars. The goal of this game is to create the ZOO of your dreams.
You can choose between 9 different habitats (desert, wood, lake …), your choice should depend of your animal don’t try to put a Zebra on an iceberg he surely won’t love it. You have
21 kinds of animals (from the smallest parrot to the biggest elephant). The number of animals in their habitat depends of their size, smaller means more they can be in the same place it vary from 9 to 3. You can decide if you buy a male or female, and when you have a couple you can have babies.
You can also buy different stands, decorations, paths, food, employees (vet, gardener…). Each of your animals eat different kinds of food so you must buy a little bit of everything (cereals, fruits, meat, fish…). Of course, you don’t have all this choice from the beginning, each level opens you a new thing, new possibilities. Why should you buy a better path or some decoration? It helps you to get more visitors in your ZOO and consequently more money (more ZOO Dollars) to buy more important things like food, animals. On the left side of your screen you have the ZOO-O-Meter, which shows if you have lots of visitors.
If you don’t have enough money to buy something you have two possibilities: sell one of your habitat or buy ZOO dollars online (for example for 2euros you receive 50 ZOO dollars). This isn’t ideal but we all need to make money.
ZOO Mumba is a game without an end, you are playing online so you can download new animals for your ZOO
and you never grown tired of playing it. You can constantly extend your ZOO, make new habitats, and buy animals. The construction of your ZOO is dependent of your desire so you can stop whenever you want. Another negative point: when you exit the game , it doesn’t really stop, the animals are eating their food and getting unhappy with the time and the visitors don’t want to come to a place where the animals are starving and crying so it’s sort of like a virtual pet game as well.
ZOO Mumba is an adorable, funny and colorful game. I can even say a little educational, because you must know what animals eat and how best you should spend your money. At start it is perhaps a little annoying because you haven’t got many animals and so nothing to do, no duty but with the time and the growth of your ZOO it gets more interesting and exciting.
