Zoo Tycoon 2 is a simulation computer game in which the player must successfully create and run a zoo. That player must manage the zoo's finances, employees and animal exhibits. The goal is to become a "Zoo Tycoon". It was developed by Blue Fang Games and produced by Microsoft Game Studios after Zoo Empire succeeded Microsoft's Zoo Tycoon with 3D graphics in August, 2004. Zoo Tycoon 2 has many more features than the previous Zoo Tycoons and Zoo Empire, which didn't gather many profits due to Microsoft's quick release of Zoo Tycoon 2.
