Room with a Zoo | Let's Build a Zoo - Part 1 (Zoo Simulator)

Let's Build a Zoo is, of course, a zoo simulator, where we build enclosures and get animals and hire staff and sell merchandise, all standard stuff, but apparently there's also the ability to DNA splice various animals together to make wonderful and ludicrous combinations, which is why we're playing this game!

Life at Cupboard Zoo begins very humbly as we meet our investor, who has wonderful hair, and we set up our first habitat! After a little trip to a zoo in Australia we're able to acquire our first animals, which is wonderful, and after they arrive we're able to open the zoo!

We get some research underway to develop things around the zoo and we spend a bit of time setting up a little hospitality area with food, drinks and merchandise opportunities. Soon enough we're able to get our hands on a different type of animal!

Also we try to help a dog owner out, we hire some people who are a tad grumpy and we relocate the vending machines way too many times...

I love this game. Glad you are trying it. Hint: you can click on the storeroom and change the nutrition to feed your animals better meals. And trampolines are amazing!

[WeeHoursGames]

*Welcome to our zoo! Please enjoy your time here*
"We're so excited! Our town has needed a zoo. We can't wait to see your large collection of exotic animals!"
*We have two rabbits...*
"...and we'd like a refund"

[Topodic]

Excited to see this! I actually checked recently to see if this has been played on the channel before after enjoying it a bunch, so nice timing!

[elitettelbach]

Oooh this looks neat already. Love this artstyle!

[timhansen]

i like the fact you didn´t even acknowledge the Bird Elephant flying behind the bus in your intro
or the snakeboy hanging of the side (he could just be snakes dinner like the bus driver inside the shark (i hope its a costume and shes not about to be eaten )

[bombus]

Splicing DNA sounds very terrifying but also very intriguing! Penguin + Parrot = Pengot or Parruin? Llama + Lion = Llamion or Lionama? Hippo + Hamster = Hipster, duh! The morality-meter is an interesting mechanic.

[xeanayafoxzelaine]

soooo pinge going good. i wonder if we will have another rivalry like did with the cult. *chuckles* amusing vid and cant wait for next upload

[isabella.v.]

Ok, I don't have time to watch this tonight but I am soooo excited to see this game on your channel I just had to drop a comment!!

[ThunderClan]

Might want to check your settings Penge, 1-4 should be the speed/pause control. Also you can change the appearance of the management office and the storeroom to be more fun looking like you did with the entrance as well :)

[ghmai]

I have this game, and it is chaotic fun, you'll love it!

[Midnightpigeon]

I’m loving the look of this game so far! Just out if interested was this made by the same developers as “Honey, I joined a cult?”

[smudolinithegreatdragobear]

Zoobuilder? You sure? I say this is animal scoodelypooping simulator!

[stevenjohns]

I think you will have to employ a new keeper, it’s looking like you will need one keeper for every set of animals 👍ps can you please remove that one piece of grass from the top right enclosure I have OCD 🤣😂

[astrokits]

The charming version of prison architect!

[AMortificare]

magnolia and tulip flowers are irl toxic to bunnies. :)

[timhansen]

its located in the Indian Ocean

national Drink Tea (yorkshire Gold)
national animal the Elephant bird (from the intro)
Language Geekish
any other suggestions feel free to let me know

[patricker]

You should try to check the animal shelter for new animals, like the Pig you saw! I mean, it only costs like $30 instead of trading another animal to a zoo.

I know this is an old video but do you know if you can hide the previews in the research center or are they always there?
