Ladies and Gentlemen, I have had this game for a long, long time. It is, by far, one of my favorite SIM games (other than the SIMS and SIMS 2 for PC and MAC). It is not completely easy to get a 5 star park, but once you figure out a pattern, it's pretty easy. I used to spend HOURS on this game. I love that you have 3 different places to keep your guests, your workers, and your animals happy. I love how trying to create a controlled environment just doesn't work (I've separated each animal with water as if in a zoo). I love the music and the sound effects. I LOVE the trivia game that it includes, but my number one absolute favorite thing about this game is the variety. There are species of animals and trees in this game that I had never heard of, but have learned so much about thanks to this game. It is absolutely PERFECT for young teens who love animals, like me.

You may think, well, I'd rather have my kids learning Spanish or math... what good will knowing about Helmeted Guinea-fowl be in their future lives? Well, I'm 23 now and I work in Disney's Animal Kingdom driving through the Kilimanjaro Safari and I was able to tell my trainer about the animals in the preservation before my training began. We even have Helmeted Guinea-fowl, and here's the real kicker, they really do make the noise they make in this game!!!

This game is my number one choice for fun and learning about wildlife and I'll be keeping it around for my own children. I LOVE this game - totally worth EVERY PENNY!! AND if you love the game, make sure to come to Walt Disney World and visit me at Kilimanjaro Safari so I can tell you what you'll already know!! lol

Fun, but...

Sim Safari is a very fun game, but it's very monotonous. You do pretty much the same things over and over and over again. BUT, I was addicted to it for about 6 whole months, so that's got to be worth something. Overall, a very kind game and piece of equipment. Call now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

an OK game

SimSafari involves building an managing your own Safari park,add animals,huts and more.It's ok but soon bores.

Sim Safari is a challenging and engaging game for both young and old. The player has to manage wildlife, resources, workers and tourism to ensure a success. While it sounds complex, it is actually quite easy to perform the tasks (although winning is another story). There are various levels involved, so it continues to challenge players. You can create your own tourist site and safari area from scratch or deal with various scenarios from a high african hare population to poaching problems. The game also includes information about the species used in the game including how they are linked in the food web. I couldn't recommend it more highly, especially to those with children!

Average Game

I like games that people do not get bored of even if you have played them many times and this game did not give me this feeling! After one hour of playing I got so bored I accually just shut down the computer and watched TV.

I will say that the graphics are nice and the game, for the fist hour is pretty fun! Anyway, I would say that you should not buy this game!

The BEST GAME EVER

I'm a computer hog. My mom thinks I spend to much time on the computer. When I got Sim Safari it came in a game pack. Suprisingly, I really enjoyed it. You can:

1. check animal pop.
2. build a camp for incoming visitors
3. capture animals if pop. is to high

I gave this 4 stars because the camps barely have any people and the money goes away too fast! For ex. the amphitheater was $15,000! I still like playing the missions, like the one where you try to keep the cheetah pop. up! IF YOU LOVE ANIMALS AND THE SIMS OR OTHER SIM/TYCOON GAMES YOU WILL LOVE THIS! If not wait till it goes on sale!

Fun, but where does it end?

This game is fun in setting everything up first. The camp is the most difficult because you have to have to watch where you place the roads because you have to place the camp trails and the housing too. My suggestion is to place the road going all the way around the edges, then come down the middle.
Anyway, the biggest problem is the staff. If you hire to many, you may end up having to fire some and then they get angry and won't come back to work for you anymore, but then your camp suffers because you don't have enough employees. When you take time away from the animal park to fix these problems, your animal pop. diminishes and you loose safari guests.
My biggest question is where does the game end? I have gotten up to 5 stars several times, but when the animal pop. isn't diverse enough, it drops to 4 stars, then 3 then back up to 4. It never locks in like the other games, ex. Sim Tower. You just toggle back and forth between stars. So, when do you win? HOW do you win? That is the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. But watching the animals walk around and having so many to choose from is fantastic, and the camp is great to watch the little sims walk around and in and out of their houses.
