Gameplay Modes
Game will have 4 main game modes - Campaign, Normal, Sandbox and Bioreserve. In Campaign mode goal is still same - completing campaigns. Normal is equivalent to ZT2's Challenge - player is still building zoo with limited money amount, sometimes getting challenges to complete (for example, making photos of playing animals). After completing player gets some reward. Not every structure, plant, rock or animal will be unlocked at beginnning - for getting some, you need to get higher star rating. The final goal is getting a 5-star zoo. Sandbox is equivalent to ZT2'sFreeform - you have unlimited money and can place everything you want independent on your zoo rating. And Bioreserve is a new, unique mode, where player builds a nature reserve, and goal is having large amount of happy animals, succesfully breeding and surviving. Sometimes scientists will come to natural reserve for researches and give challenges to player. Completing them is helpful.
