Zoo Tycoon all at sea

Marine Mania expansion pack on the way

Zoo Tycoon didn't really tickle our fancy, but apparently somebody bought it, because hot on the tail of the release of the Dinosaur Digs add-on pack earlier this summer, Microsoft have announced that another expansion will arrive in October. Titled Marine Mania, it sadly doesn't involve American soldiers going on a rampage through your zoo, and the only seals you'll find are the cute furry ones that the Canadians are always beating up on. Over twenty aquatic animals varying from octopi to otters will be included, along with a variety of new marine-themed scenic objects and shows, and ten additional scenarios to put players through their paces. It all sounds about as exciting as watching kelp grow to me (and yes, you can do that too), but whatever floats your boat... Related Feature - Zoo Tycoon review
