To gain five stars the player had to make sure each zone was being run properly. The player can control tourism and staff. |

To contain rabbits, one must place many animals that prey on rabbits, or catch them all in nets. To contain fire, the player must bulldoze around it to keep it from spreading. |

||
| − | The park was where the player could buy animals and made sure they were not being over-eaten or underfed. The player can control the species of animals, grasses, shrubs and trees that were built here. Natural disasters could happen like [[fires]], [[droughts]], [[locusts]], and [[twisters]]. |

| − | ==Camp== |
||
| − | The Camp, also known as the Tourist Ground, was where tourists stayed. The player can build restaurants, hotels, swimming pools, cottages, tents, etc. for guests. The buildings were staffed by workers hired from the village. |
||

| − | ==Village== |
||
| − | The player had the least control over the village because it was up to the [[AI]] to decide what to build. In the village the player could hire drivers, naturalists, guides, cooks and attendants to staff your tourist grounds. The more staff was hired, the better the village did and if the player didn't hire staff the village would begin poaching your park's animals. If things went very badly, the village might even stop working for you altogether. |
