Zoo Empire (simplified Chinese: 动物园帝国; traditional Chinese: 動物園帝國; pinyin: Dòng Wù Yuán Dì Guó) is a 3D interactive construction and management simulation, much like Zoo Tycoon and Zoo Tycoon 2. The player must successfully create and manage a zoo that gathers sufficient profits. As the player moves through the game, he will acquire objects that can improve game play. The object of the game is to create a "zoo empire". Zoo Empire has a platinum edition, Marine Park Empire, which added aquariums and marine animals, but also includes the other animals.

Animals

Most of the animals have at least one other animal with the same mesh (model). For example, besides the texture, all three rhinoceroses (even the Indian) are exactly the same, as are the crocodillians, equids, bears and cats (with the exception of the male lion). Even the unique animals, such as the mandrill, have unrealistic shapes and textures.^{[citation needed]}
