This is one of those games that I sort of scoffed at the first few times I played it, back in the day. As you play it more you really begin to appreciate the genius, fun and craziness that is Zoo Keeper.

Again the above pictures are sans flash and you get the true color of the machine. This pic is a bit clearer but with the flash the orange looks yellow.

This cab in another one of those cabs that makes me smile when I look at it. That Lion just looks so damn playful! :-) Here are pics of the control panel which is pretty darn nice, most I have seen have complete cracking along the edge. The bezel and marquee are perfect!

Finally here is a close up pf the lower front and control panel. The only thing really wrong physically with this cab is the 3 holes for the coin door bar. There small and I might try to patch it some how.

I forgot about this game till a trip to Fun Spot reminded me of the zaniness. Once I played it, I knew I had to have one in my collection.
