Disco Zoo 4+

Disco Zoo is a idle puzzle game where you collect animals and slowly develop a bustling zoo. I give this game five stars for many reasons.

1. There are minimal ads. The only time you ever, and I truly mean ever, run into an ad is if you intentionally opt to watch one for extra moves in a rescue. This is a great model because not only are you not pestering your beautiful game with ads everywhere, but you’re actually motivated to watch it because you get something in return.
2. Replay-ability. You would think a game about tapping squares and collecting animals would get boring after a while, but this game keeps you coming back with features like trophies, timeless animals, and little side-missions to break up the routine of rescuing animals.
3. The rest of it. At this point I might sound like i’m just worshipping the game more than reviewing it, but this is a valid reason to install this game. Everything from the art style, the music, and even the satisfying gratification of getting an animal are all what make this game so amazing. It might sound dumb that you should install a game for it’s looks or sounds, but to me it’s the attention to detail is what makes a game.

So if those reasons don’t convince you to install Disco Zoo, than I’ll leave you with one more thing; there are unicorns.

I loved this game and almost had all the diamond statues that I wanted and then they released a time machine feature and I thought, wow, how cool is that?! And then I used it and everything I loved in the game disappeared. All of the things I had accomplished were gone. My zoo was reset to nothing. I had zero to show for all the hours I put in. All those statues my spouse got for me to help me out: gone. Whoever was responsible for the time machine feature should be forced to build a beautiful house that they think they'll get to live in and then just before it's done, someone should ask them, "Do you want a piece of fresh-baked bread?" Because of course who wouldn't want a piece of fresh-baked bread? And then when they take the bread, this someone will say, "oh, you took the bread, yay, that means your house will be incinerated." And then the house should be incinerated before their eyes. "But that's okay," someone will say, "because you can start ALL OVER, yay! Your sink can be a different color now." That would be pretty fair, I think. At least put a warning dialog box that says your zoo will lose everything if you use the time machine, okay? Because time machines--like, one would assume I could just use the same time machine and get back to my time, you know? What happened to the time machine after I used it, game creators?! Huh? Even my time machine disappeared! Pft.
