About this expansion

Zooloretto XXL is a zoo-management board game for 2–5 players, with games lasting about 45 minutes.

Your zoo grows and prospers as new animals are added regularly. In time, the animals also provide offspring, bringing more life to your expanding collection while making the available space increasingly important.

When room becomes limited, other zoo managers can provide a useful solution. Send some of your animals to other zoos, where the new arrivals are welcomed and those who contributed them receive rewards.

This creates a changing challenge around zoo capacity. Players must respond as their zoos develop, balancing the arrival of additional animals and offspring with the need to make use of limited space. The option to transfer animals gives crowded zoos a way to handle growth while benefiting from cooperation between managers.

  • Players: 2–5
  • Playing time: approximately 45 minutes
  • Release year: 2008
  • Two-player addition: two extra trucks in different sizes
  • Bonus material: included for Aquaretto

The two additional trucks, each with a different size, are added specifically for two-player games. Bonus material for Aquaretto is also included, giving the package an extra connection for players familiar with that game.

With its focus on zoo growth, animal offspring, limited space, and rewarding transfers between zoos, Zooloretto XXL offers a focused setting for players who enjoy managing an evolving collection.
