Superbe portage
Un vrai plaisir de jouer avec cette très belle adaptation, sans prise de tête sur les points de règles de la version plateau. Ne manque plus que l’extension Marine World et ce sera un sans faute.
No marine world?
want the expension; marine world
Einfach gut
Perfekte Umsetzung. Jeder, der das Brettspiel kennt, wird diese App lieben, wer nicht möchte bestimmt das Brettspiel kennen lernen.
Hoffentlich werden Erweiterungen erscheinen!!

Room for Improvement
This may be a great game for someone who has played the board version, but for a newbie I cannot recommend it. The tutorial is skimpy, and the game rules section is far from clear on a number of items, not to mention the fact that it takes a bunch of clicks to get to it whereas it should be just one click. There appear to be game mechanics that occur behind the scenes with zero explanation and prevent a player from completing actions that they expect to be able to. Very frustrating. On the plus side, the visuals appeal of the board and cards is very nice.

Excellent
A* implementation of an A* board game.
Great tutorial
Tutorial is really well put together to help new players quickly learn the rules of the game and experienced players lean the quirks of the app
Perfect adaptation
This is a great adaptation of my favourite board game. I play daily against the AIs, who do a solid job of simulating the multiplayer experience. It would be wonderful if the Marine Worlds expansion was available as an add-on.
Fun but buggy
The game crashes too much on ipad
Super fun! Highly recommend! Some areas for improvement but I’m along for the ride!
This game offers a unique experience for every gameplay with many different ways to approach strategy and variable components to monitor throughout. There is definitely a learning curve, but it is worth the time investment for a game that doesn’t start to feel like it’s on repeat after a few plays. I have both the physical and app version. The app version makes learning much easier because it blocks unqualified moves (such as not enough money or action power for a particular move) and highlights what you can do (such as the additional cost for playing an animal from the display). These details are more challenging to monitor on the physical board game. The game is highly customizable with many offline solo options and either async or real-time online options.
There are a few points for improvement as development continues. 1- First and foremost… PLEASE ADD THE MARINE EXPANSION PACK TO THE IOS APP!!! 2- Also, the chat function is very handy, but you cannot see what you are typing beyond the initial line which can make it challenging to use, especially because the typing field is so tiny to begin with. It would be very nice if this could pop out into a separate maneuverable window or at least expand to show your full message in the typing field like a text message bubble would on any smart phone. 3- There is also a culture of players that like to go at warp speed, which is fun sometimes, other times a bit frustrating. It would be nice if the time per turn was an additional customizable component. This would likely mitigate some tensions for those who think a little longer and those who want to whip through turns at the speed of light. 4- Finally, the app does crash sometimes, has somewhat long loading times, and drains my phone/tablet battery pretty quickly. I imagine that operating such a detailed game does require significant power but the freezing during online games can be disruptive and sometimes kick you out of the game if you can’t reload quickly enough. For asynchronous games, if I open a different app on my phone with this game still up in the background, when I return to it I have to close it out and reopen it for it to register my opponents moves and allow me to take my turn. So it does not really run in the background which makes turn taking pretty inefficient. Overall, these issues don’t impede gameplay so significantly that it curbs my desire to play, it is still very enjoyable, but solutions would be nice if possible!
Creative suggestion… it would be really cool to have animal facts on the cards like we see in some other animal/nature games. Even cooler if they can somehow correlate with the animal’s power in the game. I have a degree in Wildlife Biology so I see a lot of opportunities for this in the card deck. Might even be nice to see an icon or animation of what animal is in which enclosure for easier scanning and engaging UI. Super cool game, highly recommend!!

Errors
I really like playing this game, however, there are errors within this app. When placing an animal with the appropriate partnership zoo, the reduction in price (-3) is not validated by the game. Also, certain conditions on the cards are not recognized and applied in this digital game.
I looking forward to play every day
Just stunning game lot of chalanges and you can even play with someone, graphic is amazing and its so much satisfying than real board game so glad it’s so cheap and I can play it all the time I want love this game thank you for making it so nice and exciting developers
Brilliant adaptation
Really enjoyable adaptation of this brilliant board game.
Zoo on the go!
Great app implementation of the board game. Top notch.
Fast perfekt
Leider fehlen die Zusatzpacks.
Great game!
Smooth and challenging game! Visuals are excellent!
Expansion???
I need expansions or new map packs of challenges soon please
Leider gänzlich ohne Ton und instabil
An sich ist das Spiel toll umgesetzt. Allerdings geht auf meinem iPad der Ton nicht und hin und wieder gibt es Abstürze
Performance à améliorer
Le jeu est bien opérationnel. Quelques rares crash et bugs visuels, mais très accessible par rapport à la richesse du jeu.
Par contre gros problème de performance pour un jeu de tour, le téléphone chauffe, la batterie se vide trop vite.
Peut être que pouvoir désactiver des animations ou optimiser avec le l’IA le code de l’IA serait à envisager…

Super Umsetzung
Tolles Spiel. Ich habe das Brettspiel nie gespielt und hab ein wenig gebraucht um reinzufinden und jetzt komme ich nicht mehr davon los. Richtig gutes Spiel und vor allem als Solo Spieler herausfordernd genug. Nur zu empfehlen.
Some bugs and glitches
It has few of those that can ruin your game if play comp.
