Players will indulge their creative skills in the management of a living and breathing wildlife park, overflowing with animal species of all kinds. Wildlife Park 2 stands out from the crowd with its 3D graphics and realistic animal behaviour and interaction. The game is set for release 23rd June 2006. Take a trip on the 'wild side' with Wildlife Park 2, as players delve into a spectacular safari experience. In Wildlife Park 2, the animals are the stars of the show, through lifelike behaviour; they interact with the player, their fellow creatures, the landscape, their play apparatus and with the visitors to the park (don't feed the animals..). Carefully modelled in 3D, their physical movements have been painstakingly recreated to provide the most realistic movement animations possible. Wildlife Park 2 also demonstrates accurate water and weather effects, coupled with realistic plant types, growth and development. Using the full 3D game engine, water flows and collates in accordance with the landscapes topography. With a little bit of creative design; meandering rivers and cascading waterfalls can be created as players create their virtual safari. Plant life in Wildlife Park 2 covers the entire spectrum of plant species, from basic edible plants for animal food to special types of flora such as cactuses and orchids. Botanical fans can construct closed hothouses to nurture difficult species and long since extinct plants can be researched within special institutes. The games weather model can adapt for any scenario, from extreme sunshine on the African savannah, to deep snow in the Artic regions. The weather affects the behaviour of animals; thunderstorms will see animals panic and seek shelter as the lightning and rain strikes. Wildlife Park 2 a real visual and technical treat for everyone ? not just animal and nature lovers. Players take on the role of Park Director, ensuring that the park is a place where animals and people are well looked after. Not only will a careful eye be needed on the budget; players will also face the challenge of reconciling economy versus ecology. Market the park to the public to entice them to visit and spend money, so further funds can go into looking after the animals and protecting endangered species. Discover the 'circle of life' as players care for animals in their natural habitat, without any buildings and personnel.
