Koala Komander:I really loved this xp, even though I'm not too big of a fan of prehistoric animals. But, i really loved the detail and the new content enhancing the game play added in this XP. There's even fun little mini games you can play while running your zoo, which keeps you interested for while longer.I never expected or heard of more than half of the animals in the game.I expected more of the well known dinosaurs but their animal choices were interesting and i really loved them! I got a real education out of this!
Penguinman:Extinct Animals added a surprisingly high number of animals to the game, allowing for a wide variety of creatures from many different time periods. That made the expansion much better, even if some of the animal choices were a little odd and many are fairly similar to already existing animals and to each other. It was nice for me to have the DD pack in it as well, but I can understand how people who already paid for it would want some of their money back which was never done. The mini-games are a very nice diversion and I appreciate that all of the fossil digging and cloning is simply optional and animals can still be adopted regularly. Overall a very nice xp and if extinct animals are your thing, I don't think you will be too disappointed.
