Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection (2003)
Genres:Strategy, Simulator
Game modes:Single player
Story:An 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.Show more

Would you like to learn more about animals? This feels like a fan game at first, but it is not. It has several ways that allows to to manage the Zoo and even go down to do everything... I mean, even cleaning up their poop. It is much more fun than it sounds, I assure you! Besides, you will learn a lot about animals and feel like you have a virtual pet game that actually makes sense. You can preserve animals, like GOG preserves games.
Pretty much the best zoo sim on the market. Lovingly made and one of the best "cozy" games this side of Stardew Valley. It is a bloody shame that the game is unavailable legally anywhere.
Back in the day, it was the reason I got a GoG account...I needed this game on my PC again.
Lots of time spent creating cages trying to find the perfect match, caring for the animals, always giving them what they want, and just for fun opening up the cages to see what the lions could do.
I have a faint memory of playing this game in 2004 (?) while a party was going on, and then there were fireworks and I remember having this strange feeling of loneliness but also having a new-found comfort zone within this game...
My first PC game ever! My parents bought me this bundle at Costco, and I was hooked! The animals looked terrific, and it was as close to building Jurrasic Park as the dinosaur DLC was included. Even after JPOG was released, I still played this game for your zoo's in-depth gameplay and customization.
To me what makes this game so special to me that this game gives you the freedom either to build a proper zoo or unleash chaos. My dad got me this game for my birthday because I happen to love animals, and I fell in love with this game ever since. the amount of variety in both the animals and attractions as well as the fun educational aspect that teaches you about several species of animals without hindering the game. The main reason I want this game on GOG is because it would be nice to play this game on a modern PC and give this game the digital release it deserves.
I was about eight when my dad brought this game home. My sister and I, and just about everyone we knew fell in love with this game. Creating the zoo of your dreams... this was possibly the first title to make that dream a reality.
What I enjoyed most about this game, besides the economic simulation, was the ability to let animals, such as Lions, Dinosaurs, and Monkeys, out of their habitats to maul the visitors. Great times...
Me and my brother have a lot a good memories with this game and its fun to build a zoo. I was very excited to have dinosaurs in the expansion. This was a great game and wish it was better known. I regret losing my physical copy, but hopefully this will available in the future on gog and relive those moments again.
My brother and sister would play this along with the sims with me all day. I remember playing once for 24 hours with my cousin when he visited. Our parents arranged a day trip to the museum, and when we returned, we fell asleep for 12 hours waking up the next day.
Few games let you show off animals, aquariums, dinosaurs, and a bigfoot. This did.
Sakura Wars: So Long, My LoveSakura Wars is a Strategy RPG that features a unique sim-based story system. An in-depth storyline exists, much like in any other RPG; however, the player's destiny in the game is not predetermined. Character interaction plays a major role, and your responses to the various characters in the game can ultimately change the story content and even the final outcome. The battle system is divided into two main parts; ground combat and air combat. Ground combat takes place using two-legged mechanized suits, which transform into jet fighters to take the fight to the sky. Every mech unit in the game can transform from battle mech mode to jet fighter mode during combat. Once transformed, weapons and movement methods will change as well. For example, the hero's ground mode utilizes a sword as his main weapon, but in jet mode he will use long-range missiles.Action Romance

Breath of Fire: Dragon QuarterBreath of Fire: Dragon Quarter is a radical departure from the previous titles of the Breath of Fire series, and in some ways from standard Japanese-style role-playing games in general. The game is built like a huge dungeon crawler, with no overworld map. The combat is tactical: each character has action points (AP), which can be used to move around the screen during an enemy encounter, and perform a variety of combo attacks. There is no magic in the game, and many of the items found in dungeons are random. All the enemies are visible on screen. Depending on who first initiated a physical contact, the party or the enemies get an extra turn in battles.
The game allows (and even encourages) the player to restart it from the beginning, keeping the items and the party experience. The game also features a special counter - Ryu can use his traditional dragon transformation abilities, but the counter raises with each such transformation, and when the counter reaches 100, the game is over. Raising the D-ratio allows characters to access new areas every time the game is replayed.Trending Fantasy
