A zoo on the other side of the Portal Past the Portal lies a valley where dinosaurs never went extinct. You run the only zoo there. On our side, people line up for tickets. Build a park worth the trip, keep your dinosaurs happy and send every visitor home with a story. Build it your way Enclosures of any shape. Fences go on the edges of tiles: hedges, wood, steel, log palisades, stone walls, electric fences, armoured glass and carved Portal stone. A Parasaurolophus is fine behind a hedge. A T. rex needs the strongest kind, and an electric fence holds only while it has power. Shape the land. Paint grass, dirt, sand and ponds, plant tree ferns, cycads, ginkgos, palms, flowering magnolias and weeping willows. Every species wants its own mix of ground, water, plant cover and room to roam. Toys for curious minds. Mud wallows, sand baths, giant balls, swinging logs, waterfall showers and hanging meat keep your animals busy and happy. A park people love. Paths and skywalks, viewing decks and observation towers, ice cream, lemonade, burgers and an explorer café, a gift shop full of plush dinosaurs, guided tours, a safari ride and helicopter flights over the herds. Landmarks. A T. rex skeleton, floating stones, Portal pylons, ancient ruins and even a golden T. rex. Changed your mind? Pick up a building and move it. 50+ dinosaurs with personality From the tiny Compsognathus to the colossal Argentinosaurus, with Pteranodon and Dimorphodon in the aviaries. Every dinosaur has a name and its own needs: food, water, the right ground, enough space, plants to hide in, toys and the company of its herd. Happy dinosaurs dance, play with their herd mates and splash in the ponds. Happy pairs court and lay eggs, and the babies hatch and trot after their parents. Dinosaurs catch colds, get tummy aches and limp after ramming a fence, and they grow old: an old dinosaur goes home through the Portal to live out its days in its own age. Nothing stays calm for free Hungry, thirsty or cramped dinosaurs pace their fences, ram them and sometimes break through. Visitors scream and run, rangers come with tranquilizer darts and carry the escapee home. Prefer a gentle park? Turn escapes off in the options. Research, study and rare colours Your dinosaurs teach you as you watch them. Spend that Knowledge on the research board and your scientists get to work, unlocking new species, shops, plants, fences and lasting upgrades. The longer you keep a species, the more you learn about it, and the Paleopedia fills with real paleontology. Every animal carries its own genes and colours: breed strong herds, collect rare colour morphs and trade animals with other parks on the animal market. People to run it Hire keepers who walk up to the enclosures and toss hay or meat into the feeders, rangers who patrol, tidy up and mend the fences, and vets who cure sick animals with a medicine dart. Pay them every night and watch the park run itself, or not. Something happens every day The park year turns f...
