Rating: - Loads of Fun
I like the new animals and the new features in this expansion. The new animal shows are interesting to create. The animals in this expansion are like the others in the previous games, they keep you busy for many hours of fun. The new aquarium buildings and all the ocean life are interesting aspects of the game to create realistic homes for your animals. If you love the previous expansions you will love Marine Mania.

When I installed the game, my desktop icon disappeared. I'm sure there is a way to get it back...but the game is fun. I'm still going through the challenge games....I love the landscape paintbrush & that it doesn't cost money!
Rating: - Its Okay
I like this game but I've never seen a zoo like this. But it does make playing Zoo Tycoon 2 more fun...so its not a waste of money.
Rating: - Wonderful Addition to Zoo Tycoon 2
This addition only enhances Zoo Tycoon 2. You can create marine biomes using walls, or just a natural water feature. You can create shows with the dolphins and orcas, and some of the animals you can interact by riding them!. It is a little difficult to set up the shows, because they won't perform unless they are perfectly happy in their environment, but it is worth the purchase.
Rating: - Fun for all ages
I have enjoyed all the zoo tycoon products and I have to admit I am 31! The improved graphics in this version are a great improvement from the first one and adding the Marine animals gives you a lot more variety to work with! Good fun! My 4 year old loves to sit with me while I play and "walk" through the zoo with me. He loves to get to press the space bar to take care of the animals' needs!
