[@TheDarkMarioAndSonic]

2:10 “If you couldn’t tell, in Zoo Tycoon you are building a zoo.” Thanks Pravus

[@TheBloperM]

Didn't see that coming.

[@danielphantom5949]

TheBloperM me neither

[@XxPsionicGamerxX]

flawless logic

[@undecidedesports]

WOW so that's why its name Zoo Tycoon TY MAN

[@matthewgrundy7619]

This is my favourite childhood game, I'm not joking it taught me how to read, I played it that much. Please make more!

[@sabytheblackcat]

This game was my childhood and I'm desperately trying to find it again to play it. I hated when my customers were not enjoying the zoo. I'd search the list of unhappy people, make sure they had no trash with them, and lock them with the crocodiles, the lions, or drown them in a remote piece of elevated water terrain. F-them, how dare you not like my zoo?

[@BlaneDaze]

The most enjoyable memories I had with this game is when I fire all the zookeepers and delete the cage wall of all the exhibits after blocking the entrance with a decoration. Or, I would just create a massive exhibits by simply wall off the entrance and place all kinds of animal inside to kill each other, while I laugh maniacally. Am I a terrible person?

[@OblivionKisame]

Blane Daze no it makes you a horrible zoo keeper and businessmen lol

[@danielphantom5949]

Blane Daze nah fam, you good

[@khaledakachat5401]

done that too XD thats fun

[@norhamimiyusof9546]

Well ot depends...

[@narwhalmaster8803]

I would always put tow animals to fight and called it animal fight club and the winning animal would get to live

[@mattschaffner1601]

This, right here, made my day. Watching this before a big test and honestly don't even care if I fail or pass just cause I got to see a bit of my childhood today

[@Thunder55Turbo]

Matt Schaffner Ubisoft makes reproductions if this game. You can find them through amazon and ebay for less than $10

[@CJBurkey]

There's a new terrible XBox version if you're OK With parting with an extremely unreasonable amount of money for a sub-par game

[@Ivory-Lynn]

Matt Schaffner how are you taking a t st if you played this in your childhood are you like 8 years into uni?

[@nxt_tim]

Planet Zoo [:

[@RaarHelen]

Did you pass?

[@longnguyenhoang994]

A bit of nostalgia can't do no harm, your commenting makes it much more entertaining I must say. Pity I didn't know of your channel up until now, gonna start supporting it

[@kaila_1111]

11:21 "He doesn't like the elm trees. Well i'm so sorry, excuse me princess!" lmfaooooo

[@koopaforever]

This game brings back good memories

[@turtleduck2085]

11:44 or you can click on the gate icon below the fence options. This allows you to move the gate without having to delete fence pieces. :)

[@LukaZorko]

Love seeing you play one of my favourite games :D

[@LukaZorko]

at least its one of my favourite game series. i dont like the old ones as much but they're still cool

[@UnrealGamer6]

Found this playthrough when I, myself, wanted to go down memory lane! I played this SO much as a kid, I really wish they'd add it to Steam!

[@nickelcobalt9922]

This popped up I though oh I'm being trolled oh how wrong I was

[@nickelcobalt9922]

Thought* damn auto correct

[@darth.4996]

Same. He should have uploaded this on April 1st xD

[@nickelcobalt9922]

Darth. That. Would. Have. Been. Purrrfect.

[@Some_Jihadi_Warrior-me1rz]

I actually played it too as a kid in the year 2006/7. I loved it.

[@christophermiller4969]

ill say zootycoon 2 is better in terms of grahpics but lets admit this was the best one ever! idc how bad the graphics was.

[@gyrozeppeli884]

Am I the only one who likes to use the terrain height editor in order to trap zoo visitors in holes?

[@shroomy__rxcks]

i always played this game the exact same way when i was younger... i went to the kids zoo, deleted the zookeepers before they could clean the polar bears' poop, maybe did a dolphin show, put a fence in front of the main gate, released the lions, and filled up the entire zoo with dinosaurs. good times...

[@veadelrosario4293]

How cute and quaint! I going to enjoy this

[@Soymilksoul]

"FACE THE BEAR AND GIVE HIM FOOD." Sound like a Hemingway quote.

[@kel000001]

3/10 not releasing all animals when the challenge is finished

[@methyllithium323]

Ah, my childhood - the time I tough these graphics were pretty good and high quality XD

[@DzRythen2866]

This is my childhood, thank you so much for playing this! :)

[@thrashmetal2729]

I played the hell out of this on Nintendo DS.. Such great times. I wish I could enjoy Planet Zoo this much..

[@Katiedid2040]

Pravus you realize that people have now figured out your recording schedule. What an amazing species we are

[@mainmarco]

Oh my God, let's go! I put hundreds of hours into this game! I am so excited to watch this! You the best Pravus!

[@Decrupt]

This was so fun to watch, play more of this! (Praise Lord Pravus!)

[@spooksdraws]

man this takes me back to my childhood i love that you're playing this!

[@allfather_kree]

OMFG ! Thank you. Keep playing and recording.

[@alittleaccurate3080]

The nostalgia is insane! Also, on the subject of being allowed to play it, my friends mom took the game away because we kept putting lions into exhibits with tons of antelopes and shit lol

[@frowersss]

I love the fact that he played this before Planet zoo was even a thing.

[@gabrielstroup]

First video I've seen of yours, also a ZT childhood fan. Love your gameplay and video style! #subscribed

[@oash6041]

I loved playing this game when I was a little kid, they should make a 2018 version with intense high quality and much more to do

[@rosamatthews2538]

Me and my older sister used to play this all the time. It genuinely made me so happy to watch you play, lol Edit: You're also insanely good. What the heck

[@gewuerzgurkeev]

this channel gets better and better :O

[@SimonJones265]

This game was so simple yet so much fun. Probably in my top5 most played games :)

[@RazaAncient1]

I didn't watch this right away because I thought this was one of the other youtubers I follow posting this. This is a great surprise! I'm excited to see how this goes lol

[@M3rp21]

I have such great memories from this game, Planet Zoo I feel doesn't come close to what this game offered. Maybe it;s because I want dinosaurs and marine animals XD

[@Zoe-je1cw]

The memories coming back Rn This was my childhood game 😁

[@kaireoartz9447]

ive been looking for a video on this game! All i kept finding was ones about the newer game Q~Q Love ur video! Thank you

[@DestructiveDave1900]

Nostalgia! This brings back memories!

[@hydekido7506]

The best games I played when I was a bouncy baby boy at the age of 10 Command and Conquer Generals/Generals:Zero Hour and C&C Red Alert 1,2,3 and Red Alert 3:Uprising

[@AtlasNL]

Once I went to a zoo, and when we went to see the lions we saw some mating... it was weird. But... PRAISE LORD PRAVUS!

[@BloodSweatandFears]

Omg this is so nostalgic 🥰 just the sounds of the animals being happy/sad brings me back to me at age 12. I used to block the entrance and let out all the animals 😂

[@EvelienSandra]

Theres a ctrl + Z button on the left (the big red arrow above the bulldozer). It's very handy! Ugh.. how I miss playing this game!

[@zedex9892]

Wow! I didn't expect this to be on my subscriptions screen at all. Definitely gonna watch this since I was really into this game! I may be incorrect, but doesn't undo button be the correct solution for uneccessary terrain adjustments?

[@rn6467]

I remember how I used to grow the zoo and then just get the cage of the lions off and block the entrance of the zoo😹

[@BradYeti97]

Man I had this game on the DS, it's safe to say I sunk many hours into it!!

[@teutates1989]

i loved this game. simple but extremely fun. Both the dinosaur expansion as the marine expansion was extremely engaging too. Never heard the argument that "dinos" ruined this game though.

[@alexraffeo3629]

This game was a huge part of my childhood so it's great to see you tackling it. Good luck if you try to do the scenario with the pandas reproducing.

[@Ottocide]

OMG ON MY BIRTHDAY PRAVUS THANK YOU :D

[@tapanshukla358]

Wow.....one of my favourite games.....Hey pravus, make it a long series

[@currybear19]

Wow just when i was looking up zoo tycoon and jurassic park operation genesis in youtube, pravus just uploads one XD

[@cactussmitho9875]

I remember playing Zoo Tycoon 2 when I was like 8 and like a year after that I bought this one with both expansion packs, played the heck out of it

[@smallpiper2]

I obsessed over this game for a long time.

[@_Cursed_Queen_]

I remember playing this and always getting lions, And whenever the Cubs were born I would move them to a small low fenced area as if it were a petting zoo. I would always have them escaping but I never changed and I still might not change when I find my disc again

[@MooseShower]

I still have this game and I LOVE it still. I'm 17 and I played it since I had a computer

[@vfranceschini]

wow i used to love this game so much lol Gotta wine bottle one up to play now, thanks your majesty

[@algo5110]

Oh my goodness... Are you a radio announcer or something like this? You‘re voice is extremly catching :D

[@kieranthorburn8421]

I just set my PC up and found my zoo tycoon disk in a drawer from when I was a kid! Booted it up and wow what a memory this game was 😍

[@blake8822]

If you hold shift and 4 then you will start to get lots of money, however your fences will break down and your animals will run wild. Fun to do when you have lots of carnivorous dinosaurs.

[@ashpiphany]

The nostalgia :o

[@johnhammond4924]

after three years ofd searching for this game... I gave up. last night i was going through my old cd's, and whaddya know there it is. I just got rid of the only computer that has a cd port thingy. im so happy but so pissed. best playthrough so far btw thx

[@DASBIGUN]

I have to say...this was chill brah.

[@BlueSkies30]

This game was the definition of my childhood along with Zoo Tycoon 2. I had the complete collections for both. I always played freeform though, with unlimited money. I still went out of my way to please guests and the animals, I just enjoyed not being restricted in any way. With Zoo Tycoon 1 I loved fitting ALL the different animals in a single zoo (minus the dinos and aquariums which got their own zoos). With Zoo Tycoon 2 I tended to keep the dinos and aquarium animals separate from the "normal" animals too. With the space limit for Part 2 though, I put a lot of thought into making 5 or so zoos, making 10 - 11 pens for 10-13 animals in each zoo (I loved combining animal pens when I could for the jeep rides - like my favorite mix - giraffe, zebra, and gazelles). I made sure never to repeat animals and to spread the popular animals and different habitats out (each zoo would get 1 popular animal like a lion, tiger, bear, etc., and every zoo would get an Arctic animal, an African animal, a North American animal, etc.). I just LOVED going into such detailed planning. I also enjoyed making zoos with only 1 gigantic pen in it. My favorites were making a P. Horse pen with like 50 horses, and an African savannah pen with all the animals from that location (Lions, cheetahs, elephants, rhinos, gazelles, zebras, giraffes, african buffalo, etc.). With food and toys and tall grass and trees aplenty, there actually weren't too many deaths in the massive African pen. It was very fun to use the 1st person mode to look at all of them. I wish these games hadn't stopped working/that XP hadn't gotten so buggy. The Nintendo DS versions are poor compared to these. Even the XBox game isn't as good.

[@rafalst]

You need to play Zoo Tycoon 2. It held up much better than the first one

[@animeguygaming4803]

Im 22 years old i remember playing this when i was 7 or 8 an i deliberately got my self a windows xp laptop off ebay and ordered the game both came in prisine condition and started playing again the memories

[@adampruzinec4756]

Very nice. Maybe you can play roller coaster tycoon. It would be awesome.

[@justderp5713]

Wait, wait wait hold on... 2:10... THIS GAME IS ABOUT BUILDING A ZOO? INSANE!

[@andrewcrumb8027]

I used to play Zoo Tycoon too when I was little. I miss playing that PC game.

[@DominationofProcrastination]

I found the marine mania/dino digs zoo tycoon disc at my house, all I need to do is find the charger for my old laptop then I can play it. I. am. so. excited. Btw that zoo basically describes Maine's great wildlife, moose and black bears.

[@luisduarte309]

thank you for letting me relieve my childhood

[@amandamontana4247]

I love his commentary

[@ParkeraNZ]

Thanks for the trip down memory lane :)

[@greywhizzadventurer8535]

Wow, can't believe you're actually playing this relic from the past. Really ancient stuff.

[@WatcherMovie008]

I wanna scream "Put down some damn trash cans" to help prevent loitering.

[@norhamimiyusof9546]

Such nostalgia should be preserve.

[@ThinkingRebal]

Dude, I need to find you and hug you, I loved this game as a child. I wish I could find my cd now.

[@BruceYammosk]

Talk about childhood! ZOO TYCOON HYPE

[@ReasonMakes]

This was fantastic! Great memories

[@awordabout...3061]

Am I the only one who thinks the Bison might be a bit nervous with their window facing out onto the bear? Loved this game when I was younger, I still install it from time to time - keep this series going! I demand pandas everywhere! Pandas, Porpoises, and some dinosaurs beginning with p!

[@elenatheartistandgamer2001]

Bro, You Have My Childhood in your hands!!! I played this when I was 3 years old and I was born in 2001 so I'm 18 now so it's been 16 years since I've played this game...Oh no... I'M OOOLLLLDDDDDD!!!

[@adamguillory2428]

I will say this now, I saw it said 'zoo' on the discord server out of the corner of my eye, and I just thought, "that can't be right" and then when I scrolled up, I didn't see it again, then I saw this just now, and I just thought aloud, "I knew it said zoo!"

[@lockretvids]

This actually looks cool. I would love to see more of it.

[@ssskck2024]

This game was so ahead of its time! After trying Planet Zoo it felt like playing with Zoo Tycoon with better graphics.

[@mylieherman3958]

The happy/sad sounds unlocked a memory

[@Darken631]

The poor bear was the only animal in the entire Zoo that didn't get a companion. Poor guy.

[@chocolatesunday4798]

I just discovered you... and I love you.

[@Qardo]

Mechanic's simple? It is kind of complex. Even compared today.

[@chasefuller8496]

This video has dredged hundreds of hours of memory out of my brain oh my god

[@BRDRSTER]

Used to play this game so mutch, love IT.

[@therockas8190]

[@kazuma11791]

My childhood! I thumbed up before pravus finished his first word in the intro lol

[@tnk4me4]

the nostalgia. It's over 9000!!!

[@clareb1565]

Good to see Chevy Chase is finding work...

[@Thunder55Turbo]

I like this. This game deserves so much more love. What software are you using to record your PC?

[@lagendadedom1500]

hey ! I play really hard this game still today. I manage to bought again the full extension with Marine Mania and Dinosaur Digs. I have a question : is it possible to go over 1000 visitors in your park ? On my graph it seems I am topping 1000 and never go above. Do you know anything about this ? (ps : i used a large field)

[@owenoswald]

I used to love the heck out of this agen

[@victoriojustinpusta5778]

I miss this game i feel old tnx

[@budderlord555]

I grew up with this game holy crap the nostalgia

[@IquonYT]

Omg just found this. This is so great. My childhood. I am going to suck this in now!

[@acdragonrider]

How do you play old games like these on the new computers? I tried age of empires zoo tycoon and red alert on newer PCs a while ago but they said no :(
