Wildlife Park 3 feels like a very cheap game. Even the menu screen is shoddy, which takes over a minute to load up. When you finally get to the game you have two options – campaign or freeplay. Campaign covers 20 missions of varying difficulty, most of which just feel like extended drawn-out tutorials for the freeplay mode. One mission can be done in minutes, others take hours, and some seem like days. The tutorials themselves are particularly stupid, and I can guarantee that you will not enter freeplay with all the skills you need. Sometimes you’re even given incorrect instructions, like this one for moving animals: “select an animal and then click OK to move it to another spot”. Along with there blatantly being several steps missing in those instructions (like actually moving it), there isn’t an OK button.
Sometimes it’ll say you can do something, but not how to. I spent far too long trying to work out how to replace small restrooms with better ones (which you have to do to progress) before giving up and just bulldozing the entire area. Then if that’s not enough, the game gets far too complicated quickly. You have to worry about permits, soil types (for plants and animals), water levels, prices, not to mention trying to work out why they’re building a zoo in the middle of the African savannah.
