Computer Game Review 70/83/77 [2]

Next Generation reviewed the PC version of the game, rating it two stars out of five, and stated that "Exploring your park is kind of entertaining, but only for a very short while. Hey, once you've seen one pack of hyenas feasting on a carcass or an elephant loping across the screen, you've pretty much seen them all. And you'll be way too tied down with administrative duties to do much sight-seeing anyway." [1] Computer Game Review 's Tasos Kaiafas called the game "not very educational, interesting or fun." [2]
