May have been added with Soaked
After getting RCT 3, RCT 3 Soaked, and now RCT3 Wild, there is some dissapointment with this expansion pack. Good news is that there are many things to upgrade your park for in this expansion pack. The main theme is animals and this expansion pack allows you to create a Busch Gardens type park. You can add all types of animals like giraffes, rhinos, pandas, and more. You can even create lion shows as well. Plus there are many new rides like a safari transport vechicle and a safari train to allow people to visit your animal displays. There are also around 20 other new rides including new prototype coasters, carival rides, and now a steamboat transport vechicle.

However, I don't think that these expansion pack works well on its own. There are just too little new features that is worth it in the price. This pack should have been combined with the Soaked expansion pack.

If you are a fan of RCT 3, then getting this pack shouldn't be an issue, however if you can buy only one of the expansion packs, get soaked since it addresses many issues that needed to be brought up in the orginal RCT 3 game. This pack has very little content to add to the orginal game.

Great add-on to a great game. Lots of fun and the kids love it also!

A great direction for an already-great game
When imagining an expansion pack for a theme park game like Rollercoaster Tycoon, my mind does not immediately go to zoo animals and the like; however, just as the water park additions of Soaked! added a new and fun dimension to the game, the zoo additions of Wild! create new challenges and add a greater sense of variety to RCT3. The scenarios added give an additional 10-20 hours of gameplay, and the new scenery and features augment an already fine-tuned game. It's just a great deal of fun and a great buy!

Rollercoaster tycoon maniac
I love this game. I am so addicted that I can play for 8 hrs on the weekend. I'm always coming up with new parks and new ideas. I've only had 2 problems with wild exp. pack. First one is it freezes and second everything kept blinking on and off. I reinstalled it and it works now except the freezing still occurs. (I added this pack to my RCT3 gold-soaked edition.)

Roller Coaster Tycoon 3:Wild
I love Wild!!!!! This expansion pack not only gives you extra roller coasters, scenery, rides and what not. It lets you put animals in the park! This is an awesome feature and gives you the tools to make parks that you never thought were possible. I have been waiting for them to come out with this expansion pack ever since Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 was released when I was 7!!

The game also comes with a slew of new levels and great features such as the ability to create water and laser shows. (I personally Lovvve the laser shows). You can also create your own lion and tiger shows (Yeah that's right just like Zoo Tycoon).


My favorite expansion is the animals. Just as in Zoo Tycoon, you have to create cages for them (If you don't, you have to go out and shoot them with a tranquilizer gun yourself) If you abuse your animals, a helicopter will come and take them away. You can also create rides going through the cages such as the safari jeeps. You can see through the animal's eyes just like the coaster cam, but this is the animal cam.(You can even see the animals go poop lol!!.) Buy it now!
