Planet Zoo Update 1.12 | Guided Tours Tutorial & Overview

Planet Zoo is a simulation video game that’s similar to the Sims. This game allows you to build your park and maintain it as the number one tourist destination. The latest update makes the game more enjoyable and easier to play.

One of the features worth noting in Planet Zoo is the Bulldozer Tool which could remove large amounts of obstructions in your park. This tool aims to make building and to rebuild faster and more satisfying. The Diorama Mode, on the other hand, allows players to create a diorama of their zoo and share it with the rest of the game’s community via Steam Workshop.

Guided Tours

Guided Tours is the latest addition to the game that allows players to offer a more informative tour about their zoo. Players can completely customized and plan out their guests’ journey through your park by making use of a new Facility: Tour Points.

Tour Points can help players plot the destination and activities of their guests in the zoo. It can easily be done by Tour Points throughout the map. Putting them in an open space or tourist hot spots is highly recommended.

Once you’re done setting all your Tour Points, it’s time for the next step. Click on the Tour Point and go to the Tour Manager. From here, you can fully customized your Guided Tours and see any missing requirements for your tour to start.

The first requirement is selecting a starting point and is usually done on Tour Points near your zoo’s entrance. Once done, you are needed to click each Tour Points to plot the tour route for the 2^nd requirement.

Next requirement would be setting up a Tour Point where the tour route will end. You can put it behind your starting point if you want to put it that way.

To complete your Guided Tour requirement, you will need to assign species in some Tour Points you’ve added to the map. How it works is that your assigned guide will talk about the specific specie you’ve set in a given Tour Point.
