I had recently bought Rollercoaster Tycoon and I started to remember playing Zoo Tycoon. Please bring the Original Zoo Tycoon back, I had lots of good and fun memories playing this game. Building a Zoo and putting so many variety animals to put in your zoo was so fun, When I got bored I would let all the Animals lose just to watch them run around scaring the npc customers. it is the perfect Good Old Game that deserves to be sold and played on GOG. Don't let this game be lost and gone forever, please bring it back.
Super fun tycoon game, just as much of a classic as Rollercoaster Tycoon so why isn't it here too?? I was never very good at as a kid so it would be great to have a version easy to play now anytime. And even if you do suck it's always fun to just let the animals loose in the zoo!

Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection
Zoo Tycoon: Complete CollectionAn insidiously addictive simulation game, Zoo Tycoon allows players to create their own zoo, but not just any zoo. It's completely free-form: Start with fences for your exhibits, then pick animals and give them toys, foliage, and anything else you want. For your customers, you can lay down paths to lead them around, then add food stands, amusement rides, even maps and trash cans. Not sure what you need? The zoo advisors will tell you how to make the animals happy, and the customers themselves will tell you what they're looking for, be it snacks, more animals, or anything else. There's also a vast amount of background information on each critter--its diet, its habitat, etc.--which can be useful when you're adding a macrauchenia or a Loch Ness Monster. In all, you can choose over 100 animals, plus countless habitat and park embellishments.

Crimson Skies
Crimson SkiesThe series is set within an alternate history of the 1930s invented by Weisman and McCoy. Within this divergent timeline, the United States has collapsed, and air travel has become the most popular mode of transportation in North America; as a result, air pirates thrive in the world of Crimson Skies. In describing the concept of Crimson Skies, Jordan Weisman stated he wanted to "take the idea of 16th century Caribbean piracy and translate into a 1930s American setting."
