All the animals in the zoo live in an environment similar to their natural habitats 🏞️. That's why the zoo is divided into different geographic zones (areas). Each zoo area is also divided into sections (expansions), which you unlock one by one.
You might've already unlocked a new expansion without even noticing as you collected sun points and increased your zoo level. Every time you add a new decoration from the Store or get new animals, sun points are added to the progress bar at the top of the screen. Once the bar is full, you can get different bonuses:
- Coins for moving up a zoo level.
- Bonus coins for the coins you get when you beat match-3 levels (starting from the second zoo level).
- The opportunity to open new areas or expansions.
New territories don't unlock with every zoo level, but when they do, there's always a new habitat!
☀️ By the way, if you want to fill up the progress bar with sun points faster, choose decorations from the Store carefully. Make sure you pick decorations that give you more points so that you level up faster!
