Summary
Planet Zoois a zoo management game that was released in 2019. As players would expect, the game has all the tools necessary to build the perfect enclosure for a variety of animals.Building a successful zooin this game involves keeping all the animals happy, and the park guests entertained with attractions such as a safaris and boat rides.
While the base game forPlanet Zoois interesting enough to give players hours worth of fun, anyone who hasplayed the game for a long timemay want to look at downloading some mods. Some of these provide the player with new tools to use, and some will overwrite entire portions of the games' code. As usual, some of the mods forPlanet Zooare better than others.
6Sandbox Color Morphs
Increasing Interest In Zoo Animals
A small detail inPlanet Zoois the albinism feature. This gives every animal born in the zoo a tiny chance of being born an albino, and this can be recognized by their pale skin. Any animal with this trait will become more appealing to customers, like rare animals, but they are very rare in the vanilla version ofPlanet Zoo.
Any player that wants to attract more potential guest to their park should consider downloading the Sandbox Color Morph mod from Nexus Mods. This mod increases the chance that the animals in sandbox mode will be born with albinism, so that players do not have to spend time continuously breeding animals to achieve this result.
5Ice Cathedral
An Impressive Home For Penguins
Penguins may not bethe most popular animal to include inPlanet Zoo,but any new zoo feels empty without these Arctic creatures. Sadly, a normal penguin enclosure takes up a lot of space on the map, and is hardly worth looking at. Fortunately, the Detailed Penguin Ice Cathedral mod from Kaltrosebd fixes this problem.
This large enclosure looks impressive as a winter wonderland feature, and isbig enough to houseup to four hundred penguins. The ice cathedral is also big enough to store other zoo facilities, such as a vet, ATMs, customer bathrooms, and employee facilities.
4Free Build
A Less Restrictive Creative Tool
The vanilla version ofPlanet Zoodoes come with all the path and terrain tools to allow the player tobuild the zoo of their dreams. However, there can be times when trying to connect a path or level some terrain does not go as smoothly as intended. Unfortunately, these issues can make a zoo look a bit lackluster or prevent players from building their ideal animal enclosure.
Luckily, the FreeBuild mod from Kaiodenic is there to overhaul the default terrain and path-building tools in the game. Therefore, players should download this mod if they want more freedom from the creation tools inPlanet Zoo.
3Tropical Reptile House
No Zoo Is Complete Without Reptiles
A reptile house is a signature part of any zoo. However, these indoor installations in the vanilla version ofPlanet Zooleave a bit to be desired. For starters, these houses are a little small, and could do with a bit more exotic varieties of animals. Fortunately, the Tropical Reptile House mod by Zoofluencer fixes both these issues.
This mod includes a much larger version of a reptile house that customers can fully explore. It even has a pond filled with crocodiles that guests can walk over using the bridge. This new reptile house even includes more viewing platforms and enclosures, so players can include farmore of this type of animalthan before.
2Safari Animal Pack
Safaris Are Some Of The Best Attractions
Going on safari in Africa can sometimes be a better experience than going to the zoo. Seeing a wide range of animals in their natural habitat is something that cannot be rivaled. That is, until players get their hands on the Safari Animal Pack mod forPlanet Zoo.
This mod exists as a way to give players access to a host of new animals without having to pay extra or wait fora new DLC pack.All the extra forty plus animals in this mod are found in the African Savannah, and include striped hyenas, Nile crocodiles, and the honey badger.
1Animal Overhaul
Bringing The Animals In Planet Zoo To Life
The animals and environments in the vanilla version ofPlanet Zooalready look incredible. However, there are times when the behavior of the animals in a zoo can make building the perfect attraction tricky. Some animals will behave poorly if there is too much vegetation in their enclosure, while others will become sad if their flock is too big or too small.
The Animal Overhaul mod from PureWinter was designed to shut down this type of response from the AI. As a result, players can build their ideal zoo to their exact specifications, without having to constantly worry about the welfare of the animals in the zoo. This mod also comes with the added bonus of making the animals more tolerant of being fed by the guests. Therefore, guest happiness will rise as a direct result of this mod.
