Loads of fun!Aug 02, 2010
By S. Norris
"susiebeth"
My husband and I are avid gamers, especially the European cross-over games. I had really wanted Zooloretto, but our research said that it wasn't the best for 2 players. Since we rarely have anyone else, we look primarily for games that are good for two.
We LOVE the game. We have only ever played it with two, and it's still great. There's a decent bit of strategy involved while also being sort of laid back and is greatly entertaining. Great game!

Zoo Management 101Jun 08, 2009
By Matthew Cordeiro
Zooloretto is a game of zoo management for 2 to 5 players. Each player manages their own zoo, which includes several animal enclosures and spots for food vendors. During each round, players fill up delivery trucks, choose a truck to fill their zoo, and allocate the animals to the various enclosures.
The game components are made of wood and sturdy cardboard and can withstand many games with young players. The game plays slightly different with 2 players, although it's still enjoyable. All of the scoring takes place at the very end, and a lot happens in the last couple of rounds, so it's anyone's game up until the end.
Zooloretto is a little light on strategy compared to other European board games, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Given the theme and the balance of luck and strategy, the game is very appealing to casual gamers and families. The game length is just right for this audience as well - about 45 minutes.

A Great Game for ALL AgesJan 09, 2010
By C. Spronk
We played this game with children and adults - complicated enough to make it interesting and requiring some strategizing, yet easy enough for elem. children to understand. Different each time it's played, especially when played with a different number of players. We played it with five, four, three , and two - fun each way.

Great Family Game!Apr 01, 2008
By Grandma G
"Georgia"
I bought this for a friend after playing it with our daughter and son-in-law several times. It's spans a great age group, with the younger ones enjoying it on one level (building a zoo with their choice of animals) and older children and adults getting more into the strategy of the game (give those other players animals they don't have room for, etc.).

Great for 7-12 year oldsSep 21, 2010
By grandma R
"mom r"
I bought this game because i thought it might be something good for my 7-12 year old grandchildren. The 12 year old read the directions and figured out how to play and then we taught the 7-10 year olds. They had a great time running their zoos and are learning a lot of decision making ideas - they must make decisions and live with the results - and you really don't know who wins until the end. It is a great lead in to "the bean game".
