Starting a little zoo in the volcano environment. Putting a few animals around and finally gave a nice surprise to the lions... I could not resist to offer them a baboon...

Recorded with full original sound.

Daamn one of my most played Childhood games. Thanks for bringing back memories :) :D

Glad we did that! It was my first time playing it. I had some real fun, it reminded me more Theme Park style of game than the Tycoon ones.

It’s a shame this isn’t on steam and the 2nd one as well. We need both of them on steam. With their DLC.

This and Impossible creatures. My childhood! 😊

[@lunaluna2160]

Is impossible creatures available online for free?

[@Kapt_Klaw]

@@lunaluna2160 I guess so! There is a HD version of this game which is quite old itself. The original was released way back in 2001 by Microsoft. You should also give a try to Majesty which was also released in the same year and also has HD version.

Empire Interactive did not develop this game

[@Squakenet]

True. Empire Interactive distributed the game only.

@@Squakenet On another note, I saw the Microsoft games opening as well as the build version 10.10.00.0006. The final release is 10.10.00.0009 and has a different opening scene. Are there any other notable differences in the game?

[@ztfreak]

You might have gotten your hands on a rare build that would otherwise be unavailable to the public.

[@Squakenet]

@@ztfreak Mmm, I got it in one of those re-release version in CD-ROM (Xplosiv), so I think it was a normal commercial one.

[@ztfreak]

@@Squakenet That is interesting, so a later re-release has an earlier version of the game. With a different Microsoft intro as well. The only other version of ZT which uses that intro is a Beta release.
