It generally spurs you to achieve more because you know where the bar is for quality and you are determined to exceed it, to "beat the other guy." The problem with competition is that if you don't meet that bar, we all know. Calling Zoo Vet: Endangered Animals a poor-man's Zoo Hospital (hereafter known as "The Competition") is like calling the Honda Civic a poor-man's Ferrari... Does not compute, right? Not only are the graphics poor compared to The Competition, they're poor in any frame of reference."

Zoo Vet: Endangered Animals takes a less beaten path and tries to add in some complicated medical terms and abstract stylus doctoring, but at its heart, it's just a cheap attempt to cash in on a love for animals without any real game to back it up."

"As a nitpick, I found that the mini-games on the computer should have been labeled. All you get is the classification "Office Games" and "Outdoor Games", but if you tap any of the icons there is no description on the top screen, and it launches the game right away.
Still, I enjoyed my handheld veterinarian experience, and a lot more than the one I had on the Wii. With a few tweaks here and there and more variety in the mini-games, I'm sure a future handheld installment of Zoo Vet will certainly do well."
At $30, this isn't an impulse buy and it's not a budget title. Mygamer really can't see anybody wanting to buy this game, and they certainly won't suggest otherwise. The game isn't terrible, but it's definitely bad. Avoid.
