Zoo Run is a lively, child-friendly family game that blends pattern recognition, cooperation and competitive play. It features two modes designed to fit different ages and skill levels:
• Cooperative mode (ages 4+): Players work together to help the animals escape the zoo by combining cards to complete as many correct animals as possible.
• Competitive mode (ages 6+): The game becomes a race in which each player tries to assemble the best animals to advance their marker on the track.
The core mechanic revolves around matching animal parts: the left side of each card shows three possible bodies, while the right side displays three possible heads — from llamas and pandas to turtles, elephants and lynxes. Players place cards face up and search for the most efficient way to complete full animals.
There is always at least one correct solution, but finding the best one is what makes the game exciting. Every round is a mini-puzzle full of hilarious combinations and clever discoveries.
Zoo Run is an excellent choice for younger children, offering quick gameplay, colorful art and plenty of joyful moments.
