Game overview

Zoo Anomaly Simulation drops you into a first-person zoo where something has gone very wrong with the animals. Part shooter, part offbeat caretaker sim, it asks you to patrol eerie enclosures, scan animals for signs of mutation, and decide whether each creature needs treatment or a tranquilizer's worth of firepower. The whiplash between mundane zoo chores and sudden mutant attacks gives the game a strange, memorable rhythm. It is B-movie horror filtered through a work simulator, and it commits fully to the bit.

Best suited to players who enjoy weird horror concepts and first-person games with a twist..
