BH_BZT_Overview.png

Common's Zoo Tycoon is a Vanilla++/Adventure modpack that focuses on the beauty of nature! Inspired by the Zoo Tycoon/Planet Zoo games. Explore beautiful biomes in the world, Discover and capture new animals, Build your own Zoo, and let your creativity free! We want players to craft their own journey with no questbooks/restrictions.

Features:

🦁 New Mobs: With over 150+ new animals/mobs being added to the game, this adds even more variety to the nature around you. The ZAWA Mod adds a ton of real-life creatures from every part of the world and in nature, into Minecraft, with amazing models, and detail!

 

⚡️ New Mob Behavior/Features: With the addition of all those new and exciting creatures, comes new ways that they act/live in your world! Animals now have hunger/thirst needs, surrounding enrichment, and suitable environmental/habitable areas. Which all affect the well being and behavior of the animals.

 

🌎 More Biomes/Environment: A whole new and revamped environment for you to explore in your world, has been aided by Biome's O' Plenty with over 80+ new biomes, and many others like dynamic trees, forestry, and serene seasons, to make the ambience around you come to life! See new and exciting features in nature as you traverse the worlds of Common's Zoo Tycoon!

 

🏡 New Furniture/Decoration Items: With a combination of mods like Mr. Crayfish's Furniture Mod, Ferdinand Plants, Chisel, and ZAWA's items you can bring your creativity to your world, and your building possibilities are endless. Create the zoo and/or sanctuary of your dreams, build a beautiful farm to take care of animals, a home, and anything else your heart desires in your Common's Zoo Tycoon world.
