[h2]We can't wait to hear your first impressions! 😊[/h2]




Have fun!

[h3]The ZOO is finally ready for a grand opening so today we’d like to talk about the Visitors! 🙂
[/h3]



[h3]As soon as the ZOO opens people will start visiting your place but before that happens you’ll have to go through a few activities. 📝[/h3]

[h3]-> repair the enclosures
-> clean them
-> let the animals in[/h3]
[h3]
The visitors will interact with the ZOO in a few various ways. For now they can approach the map at the entrance, go to the toilet, visit the hot dog stand and most importantly watch animals. 🦏
[/h3]




[h3]Once they’re done visiting, people will leave their reviews. Sometimes praising the object, other times pointing out what’s lacking. You can react to those reviews to raise the ZOO overall rating. ⏫ While reacting to the opinions can help you develop your ZOO, ignoring them may lead to a stagnation. It’s worth to keep that in mind. [/h3]



For the time being we’re still discussing whether or not the players should have any kind of interaction with them. If you have any opinions on that topic, we’ll be glad to hear all of them so make sure to let us know in the comments! 🙂





[h3]If you enjoy the effects of our work thus far, please consider adding our game to your wishlists. This simple gesture helps us grow and validates our effort! 👍 We also invite you to join our discord community where you can meet other people interested in our game. 👇[/h3]
