Dear ZooKeepers!

If animals are the heart of the zoo, the personnel must be its soul. If you're determined to have a flourishing zoo, it's worth taking a moment to familiarize yourself with the possibilities ZooKeeper provides.

Personnel management

"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." The better staff you hire in ZooKeeper the easier the zoo management is going to be. Employees can largely deal with the zoo on their own, but you can manage their activities by giving them personal instructions. It's easier than you think. Just right-click on the task objective and then select a command from the list.

Levels

No one is the same, everyone is unique in their own way. Nor is everyone perfect. Every employee has their own levels, which increase when doing any activity. In the left bottom corner of the employee icon, you'll find its current level.

Clicking the employee icon will result in opening skill points distributing window. It is used to learn skills, which increase the productivity of that specific worker in many different ways. The higher the price of the employee, the more skills he has available to learn.

Fees

If you are good at something, don't do it for free - that's a golden rule of most businesses. It is no different here. In ZooKeeper you will have a panel where you will hire, fire, and manage your employees. To open the panel just click the suitcase icon. There you can view all the information about the staff and hire them. In the case of employees, you should always pay attention to the number of paid days. If it is approaching 0, you should pay for the next with the pay button. The bonus button allows you to instantly store up energy.

Energy

We know that energy costs are quite high these days, but we want to familiarize you with a different kind of energy - staff's energy. Every employee has an energy bar that shows their willingness to perform specific tasks. Let's take for instance the red color. It suggests that employee needs to rest. If this condition continues for a long time, they may leave their jobs or be even attacked by aggressive animals.

In order to increase the energy of your staff, you can send them to the employee yard for a break. On top of that, you can pay them bonuses that will definitely cheer them up.

Now you know a bit more about people working in the zoo. Think about how to get the most out of your employees so that they are not overworked, gushing with energy that will result in more happy visitors to your zoo.

Create the Zoo of your childhood dreams!

ZooKeeper Team
