Strange Zoo

Strange Zoo combines zoo management with top-down action. You start with a few animals and a modest plot of land, then build enclosures, place feeders, toys and decorations, care for the animals and attract visitors. You run between enclosures to feed animals, clean up, make repairs and respond to crises yourself.

Build your zoo

Buy animals, design enclosures and spend coins on facilities such as restaurants, education centers, laboratories and observation towers. As your zoo grows and becomes wealthier, the challenges increase. You can also unlock buildings, equipment, toys and animal variants, and invest in permanent upgrades that affect how you manage the zoo. These include increasing your movement speed, improving food quality, developing breeding, hiring more efficient employees and raising ticket revenue.

Care for animals

The zoo includes over 40 species, from chickens, cats and alpacas to lions, tigers, gorillas and exotic fish. Animals have their own needs and behaviors: they grow up, reproduce and react to the world around them. You can buy animals and record unique sounds for them. The game also has as many as 49 rare variants, including black swans, white lions and albino alligators, for over 90 different animals to collect in total.

Events and surprises

An AI-controlled event director monitors the zoo's development and determines the pace of events. These can bring opportunities as well as disasters, including fires, storms, earthquakes, tornadoes, meteor showers, UFO visits, veterinary inspections and fox attacks. Other events include changes in animal market prices, sponsors, concerts and influencers reviewing your zoo.

Game modes

Choose Building Mode for a relaxing experience, Story Mode for a balanced one or Chaos Mode for an unpredictable one. You can set event frequency and choose an objective: build an ark with different species, make a fortune, attract large crowds, become a master breeder or simply survive.
