    Most interesting is the mini games, I think the kids won’t be easily bored with just solving a puzzle and moving on.

    I think one of the most interesting things in the review, was that it’s a learning game, that will teach tidbits of information about wildlife and the enviroment, and I like the cloud of savannah dust concept, kids get enough violence exposure in everyday life. Thank you.

    I like how the game will teach my little guy more about the balance of Earth’s ecosystem but after reading your review, I am most intrigued to find out the length of a giraffe’s toungue.

    I read the review and watched the video and just want to say that I agree with you about the over simplified details of the animals. I would like to see them take a little more care in that area too.  I do like the sounds of the game though and can think of one little boy who would really like to play it! Thank you!

    I love your review of this fantastic game.  I was going to buy this game for friend’s child who’s sick with cancer, but I can not afford it for I am flat broke.  What I like best about your review is the educational edge.  This game is wonderful because of how it teaches today’s youth about the many complex environments, and helps the child learn about more diverse environments around the world other than our own (a town or city).  Also, what I absolutely love is that because of this educational point on the game, kids will learn to apreciate and learn more about the world around us.  Great review, and I hope to win this.  It’d be lovely to win something for once, but I hope it goes to someone more deserving.  Thanks, Rachel Kosar.  :)

    What I found most interesting was that the Status cards allow kids to learn about what type of food each animal likes best and what type of environment they prefer.
