Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 13.71/day in the week to Aug 19 → 19.29/day in the week after.
Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 17 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,502 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
Planet Zoo is a genuinely good game with near limitless possibilities for customisation, as well as a good amount of potential species to house. It looks great, and I only notice issues with performance in very large zoos after lengthy sessions running it. I will add that some of the controls around item placements, especially coming to grips with groups and whatnot can feel a bit obtuse even with the in game help. And don't even get me started on paths. That being said, as much as I enjoy the game I still believe strongly against Frontier's incessant need to release their games, in my opinion, almost unfinished and then charging so much money to purchase DLC packs with animals and decorations that the game feels almost empty without them by comparison. At current prices the base game is £34.99, and the DLC would cost an extra £177 to purchase, which feels genuinely insane to me. Even on sale I could never recommend buying the DLCs. Unfortunately it seems all too common, especially with games in this genre, for developers/publishers (whoever is to blame) to almost spit in the faces of their own players with these egregious "content" packs. I'm sure Planet Zoo 2 will also be great, but I fear for the inevitable barrage of eventual DLCs. If you're happy with the base game then that's great, pick it up on sale. Otherwise I don't think it's right to keep supporting these practices of bleeding your own players dry.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 24: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

A great game for fans of the old Zoo Tycoon game. the only issue that I have so far is the Pathing system of this game.
还好
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ VASTISSIMO E PIENO DI CONTENUTI Planet Zoo è un gestionale davvero fantastico, capace di offrire ore e ore di intrattenimento senza mai dare l'impressione di avere poco da fare. La quantità di contenuti è enorme: animali, strutture, decorazioni e possibilità di personalizzazione permettono di creare praticamente qualsiasi tipo di zoo. La libertà creativa è uno dei punti di forza principali e lascia davvero spazio alla fantasia. La gestione dello zoo è altrettanto soddisfacente: bisogna occuparsi degli animali, dei visitatori e di tutti gli aspetti economici e organizzativi. C'è sempre qualcosa da costruire, migliorare o sistemare. Graficamente è molto curato e vedere gli animali muoversi e comportarsi in maniera realistica rende tutto ancora più immersivo. Un gioco estremamente completo, rilassante e soprattutto capace di tenere impegnati per decine e decine di ore. 🦁🐘 9/10 — Consigliatissimo a chi ama i gestionali, la creatività e costruire senza limiti.
Cozy and complex
sla porra
great ressource management, building, cozy game with cute animals. Building is tedious however
Como um ex-pro-player de Zoo Tycoon 2, digo que este jogo está aprovadíssimo! Sendo tudo o que o Zoo Tycoon tentou ser. Mas — como tudo tem um mas — se você quer saborear o jogo por COMPLETO, esteja disposto a comprar um trocilhão de DLCs.
yay zoo :3
Wow! What a game to get on sale, I wonder what it has to offer? Buy our dlc for 5 animals each max. Dont want that? Want to just use the workshop? Buy 5-8 dlcs just to use them! Didn't know the sims had a sequel!
