Welcome to Tiny Zoo!

Start with just one elephant and build an entertainment masterpiece with daemons, unicorns, and… pumpkins?

Remember:
* The top-right money icon is also a menu button
* The animals must be fed
* The enclosures must be clean
* The guests love it when there are a lot of happy and unusual animals around so they will pay more for the ticket
* The government loves it when you pay taxes for enclosures and animals
* Starving animals cannot work. Guests do not love starving animals. The government loves it when you pay fines for starving animals
* There is no refund if you accidentally throw your elephant into the trash
* at least you will pay less taxes
* An ostrich is a cheap headache. Nobody will blame you if you accidentally throw it into the trash
* An unicorn is an expensive headache. Guests love unicorns.
* A daemon requires more place. Guests love daemons.
* Pumpkins do not eat and do not poo.

Good luck! And wait… what is this smell?

It's very pleasant. I wish demon dung glowed and spit fire, so it'd be easier to see against the background.

Oh my gosh, probably the most time I've played a LD entry xD.
I starting thinking "I don't really like these kinds of games" and ended thinking "I'm going to have to throw that elephant in the trash so I can put another unicorn over there..."

who knew running a zoo is so much stress...and crap :D I wish I could hire some help, after a while it just was too much. Then I noticed some animals are less work than others. It has surprising depth. When I place the enclosures too close to each other the visitors dont go to the enclosures further away from the entrance. But that seemed to have no ill effect on the ratings.
