Pet Vet 3D: Wild Animal Hospital is a children's simulation game that lets them assume the role of a veterinarian in charge of an African national park animal hospital.

Feeding, handling and playing with baby wild animals is only part of the fun. Similar to its predecessor, Pet Vet 3D: Animal Hospital, the game teaches players about animals, how to diagnose, treat and care for them, plus how to manage and grow a small business on a budget.

In the beginning, the hospital is relatively small and not all animal types can be treated. More animal species become available after successfully completing the various scenarios and reading reference books about them. As experience is gained and more money added for spending, players can hire a helper, construct additional pens and buildings, buy supplies and toys for the animals and even decorate their surroundings.

Gameplay is completely 'point-and-click' using a colorful, icon driven interface. A Play Tutorial is included to guide new players through the basics of the game. There are 3 difficulty levels (Easy, Average and Difficult) which determine how much money players start with as well as the types of animals available in the beginning. [source:mobygames]
