Overview
What ABG knows about this game
Designing a "wonder zoo" is not easy as it seems. First, you must choose a theme, then find the most beautiful animals, and finally attract crowds of enthusiastic visitors! In WonderZoo, you do just this by each round choosing a tile from among those on the table, then placing it on your personal game board, with paths needing to continue from one tile to the next. You can also carry out the action shown on the tile that you just added, such as adding a visitor to your zoo, moving a visitor, moving an enclosure, or becoming first player in the next round. When you can place no more tiles in your zoo, the game ends for you, but other players might continue depending on the status of their zoo. Once everyone has completed their zoos, players score 1 point for each visitor next to an enclosure tile, and whoever has the most points wins. You can increase the difficulty level of WonderZoo by having players start with certain squares blocked, and you can add advanced scoring rules as well, with the yellow visitor granting 2 points when next to a yellow enclosure.
