Get Ready for the Grand
Opening of Simplz: Zoo
Reflexive Entertainment is proud to announce its next game: Simplz:
Zoo, scheduled for release this January on PC and Mac.
Lake Forest, CA - November 17, 2009 - Reflexive Entertainment, Inc. (www.reflexive-inc.com)
is proud to announce its next game: Simplz: Zoo. Scheduled for its grand
opening this January on both Mac and PC, Simplz: Zoo will put players in
charge of their own zoo, giving them the chance to control nearly every
aspect, from what animals they exhibit to where to put the drinking
fountains.
Created by the same award-winning team behind the breakout hit Airport
Mania, Simplz: Zoo was created with a similar focus - having fun and
putting smiles on players' faces. Russell Carroll, designer and producer
of Simplz: Zoo said, "It was great to see the positive response to
Airport Mania, and to hear all the stories of people who couldn't wipe
the smile off of their faces while they were playing. With Simplz: Zoo,
we wanted to continue that upbeat feeling while creating a totally new
and different experience."
Simplz: Zoo combines two different types of games, simulation and
puzzle, into one unique adventure. The main focus of the game is the
zoo, where players will be able to choose from nearly 50 different
buildings and exhibits, and more than 90 different types of animals. In
addition to deciding what will be on display, players will personally
create the layout of their zoo, arranging paths, foliage, fountains,
statues and, of course, the buildings and exhibits, to satisfy both the
happiness of the visitors, and the player's own artistic inclinations.
While climbing the ladder of the world's best zoos, players will then
use a match-3 game to collect needed resources, such as food for the
animals, resources for the buildings, money to purchase new exhibits,
and research points that are used to investigate and unlock new
habitats.
The connection with the match-3 game isn't one-way however, as every
building, exhibit and animal placed on display in the zoo directly
impacts the match-3 game, giving players more than 30 different
power-ups that constantly shake up the 100 levels of puzzle play.
Featuring whimsical music from composer Isaac Shepard, fun-friendly
graphics, and a zoo full of characters, Simplz: Zoo will provide an
enjoyable and long-lasting gaming experience for everyone in the family
when it is released for the PC and Mac in January. More information can
