Animal Tycoon is a turn based game. You should try to collect in each round as many matching animals of the same kind as possible to fill your enclosures. Don't forget to expand your zoo once all your enclosures are inhabited by an animal kind the left over animals will be placed in the stable and you will lose points!
Vending stalls next to the enclosures guarantee at least a certain minimum of visitors and provide you with 2 extra points. If all rounds are played the player with the most points will win. The game is played over multiple rounds. If it is your turn you have several options what to do next:
- Draw an animal card and place it on any of the three delivery trucks.
- Take a delivery truck and place the animal cards on the playing field.
- Do a money action.
After the choice of an action it is the next players turn. Once every player has placed its delivery truck the round will end and a new one will begin. The following actions are available-
- Expand: You can build one additional enclosure for 3 coins. Additionally you also receive one more spot for a vending stall.
- Move: You can move a single animal or a sales stalls from the stables to a fitting enclosure or available spot.
- Exchange: By paying 1 coin you can exchange all the animals of one enclosure with the ones from another. Of course this does only work, if all the animals have enough space in their new environment. Vending stalls cannot be exchanged.
- Purchase: You can purchase any animal from the stable of an opponent and put in into your zoo, if you pay 2 coins. Be aware that your opponent will receive 1 of the 2 coins!
- Sell: To get rid of your penalty points you can sell any animal from your stable for 2 coins. The game card will be deleted.
If the card deck has less than 15 cards the last running round and the game will be finished. If every player has placed its trolley the evaluation screen will appear and name the winner.
