The game successfully combines all features from the original Wildlife Park game and its expansion, allowing players to build a comprehensive zoo experience.
The structured interface and improved controls make gameplay more accessible once players adapt to the changes.
Challenging scenarios and the inclusion of DNA research for developing extinct animals add depth to the gameplay.

The user interface is clunky and unresponsive, making it frustrating to build exhibits and manage the zoo effectively.
Many players feel that the graphics and overall presentation are outdated, resembling a mobile game rather than a modern PC title.
Numerous bugs and gameplay issues, such as animals not being fed or treated, detract from the overall experience and make the game feel unfinished.

The graphics have not improved from the original version, leading to disappointment among users who expected better visuals with modern technology. Many feel the graphics are outdated and lack detail, particularly in the animal section, and are further hindered by numerous bugs in the game. Overall, the visual quality is considered subpar compared to contemporary standards.
- “The graphics are crap compared to the video.”
- “I am extremely disappointed with today's technology; they do not need 1900's graphics.”
- “The only reason I bought this was because I miss the game, as my PC will no longer play the CD-ROM of the original (and you can't seem to get computers with disc drives now). The graphics aren't as nice either, nor is the section of animals in the game as extensive, though I could have put that aside if there weren't so many bugs in the game.”
optimization

Users express significant frustration with the game's optimization, citing slow performance and a lack of quality compared to expectations for a PC game. There are calls for improved coding practices and a more polished experience, as current issues are seen as indicative of poor development standards.
- “It runs slowly.”
- “I do hope that they will make Wildlife Park 4, but they have to make it good—a decent computer game, not a crappy mobile game with a mobile interface and icons. More content, more quality, fewer bugs, more optimization. Seriously, their games have the worst optimization ever. If the developer could learn how to code, that'd be great, but in the end, no developer knows how to code nowadays, so I guess we can't blame it on them, can we?”

The monetization of this game has been criticized as a blatant cash grab, overshadowing the quality of the original and its expansion. Users feel that the current version prioritizes profit over player experience.
- “I cannot recommend this game not because it's a bad game; the original one and its expansion are great, but this version is just a quick cash grab. That's all there is to it.”
- “The monetization in this game feels exploitative, as if the developers are more interested in squeezing money out of players than providing a quality experience.”
- “It's frustrating to see so many features locked behind paywalls, making it hard to enjoy the game without spending extra money.”

Users report significant stability issues with the game, citing numerous bugs and a lack of responsiveness from the developer. Many feel that the game does not justify its cost, especially compared to the original version, and express disappointment in the overall quality and interface. Overall, the game's stability is seen as a major drawback, detracting from the experience.
- “Having played almost all existing games on PC and some consoles, I can confirm that their games are the most buggy ones. It's unbelievable how many bugs there are.”
- “If the interface had been made better, I would have been ready to pay about $2 - $3, but still not more than that. It's a very old game with nothing new except a few unnecessary features.”
- “Wildlife Park is a good series, but B-Alive (the developer) isn't good at all. They don't listen to the community and just don't care.”
