If you are on the 25th - 28th+ don't buy anything until rollover passes! Especially animals!Īlso when in early game keep to cheap animals for the most part, nothing to expensive (I say somewhere around 7,500 and under for the most part) until you at least get to 3 stars. It's actually much easier to simply adopt the extinct animals than create them in early game!Īlso, keep an eye on where you are in the month! Hover over the calendar to see what day of the month you're on. Never buy the Extinct Research Lab unless you know you can tank it's high Upkeep! If you need it for a challenge in Campaign Mode, complete the challenges and once you don't need it anymore delete it! If you don't want to deal with food buildings and seating anymore than after a time you can fire your maintenance worker to save on staff wages (unless of coarse you have a marine exhibit with a water filter.)

Delete all garbage cans and replace with recycle bins. Research and buy one, optionally use it to replace your food court!Īlternatively place one down and then replace your food court with the Coffee and Water drink stands.

Don't buy either of those! They do not get much traffic and are really hard to get to make double their upkeep!ģ stars is where things get rolling! 3 stars is when you unlock the restaurant! The best money maker! Once you reach 2 stars research and buy a Compost Building! The Compost Building is a great money maker!Īlso save to get viewing areas and place them near educators and donation boxes to increase Guest numbers near the most educating places!Īlso switch out your animal feed to troughs if you can! Troughs last longer than ground and dish food and will cut down on the cost of feed! Animals like Peafowl you can simply use as "Release into Wild" fodder for quick fame points until they're gone.Īlso at this point you would have unlocked the Pony Ride and Photo Booths. You only need 1 or 2 in high traffic areas and try to make sure all 3 sides are available. Once you get one star of fame research and buy the Discovery Kiosk as it will also increase education donations. (Using one to educate more than one exhibit is preferable) This increases your education donations. I then place educators near the habitats. Also make sure you have at least 1 ATM so guests don't run out of money and leave. (You can leave them at normal pricing usually but if you want money faster than you can set all 3 to expensive) And keep the food court simple only buy say 3 tables max and maybe some benches but no more. What I do is, when I first start the campaign or challenge zoo is to set the entrance fee to expensive ($50.00) and make sure there's one food stand, one drink, and a desert cart. I haven't gone severely bankrupt in years now that I know the strategy. Earning money in ZT2 is actually pretty easy once you get the know how of it and are patient.
