This new expansion pack for the popular Zoo Tycoon 2 introduces 20 new marine animals into the Zoo Tycoon 2 experience, including green sea turtles, black tip reef sharks and West Indian manatees. Watch an orca breach the surface of its tank, while dolphins teach each other new tricks.

In addition to building new captivating tanks, gamers can also customize their own aquatic shows, teaching animals to entertain zoo guests and increase their zoo ratings.

New scenarios and challenges allow players of all ages and skill levels to test their aquatic expertise, such as rescuing marine animals, restoring their health and releasing them back into the wild. Children and parents alike can broaden their knowledge of the animal kingdom with the exclusive Zoopedia feature, with excerpts from Encarta, that educates gamers on the dietary and habitat needs of the animals.
