Learn everything about Build a Zoo with this beginner’s guide, including how to play and tips for beginners.

Build a Zoo on Roblox is a fun and exciting game where you get to collect all kinds of cute and sometimes rare animals by buying eggs from a conveyor belt in your zoo. Once you buy an egg and place it in your zoo, it hatches into an animal that earns money for you automatically, even when you’re not playing.
You start with just a little bit of money and keep buying eggs as fast as you can from the moving belt. Then you place the animals in your zoo to make more cash. As you earn more money, you can unlock more land to have space for even more animals, and you can upgrade your conveyor belt to get better and rarer eggs.
The game also adds a fun twist where you can visit other players’ zoos to try and steal animals, but you also need to watch out because they might try to take your animals too. This makes the game exciting and keeps you coming back to grow your zoo bigger and better.
How To Play Build a Zoo in Roblox

To play Build a Zoo, you start by walking up to the conveyor belt and buying eggs as they pass by. Then you place the eggs on open spots in your zoo, where they hatch into animals that earn you money automatically. You use the money to unlock more space so you can house more animals and upgrade your conveyor belt to get cooler and rarer eggs.
Don’t forget you can visit other players’ zoos to try and take some of their animals, but watch out because they can do the same to you. Moving around and interacting with things is easy using simple keyboard keys and the mouse. The whole idea is to keep growing your zoo by collecting more animals, unlocking new space, and having fun building the best zoo you can.
