Press to jump

  1. 0:20James names the franchise Bigwallet Zoos and chooses a New Zealand map for Samarsh Zoo.
  2. 3:18He skips ready-made plaza blueprints and creates his own circular entrance with the path tools.
  3. 5:40A stone-walled planter gets foliage, a central tree and benches.
  4. 10:10The staff zone gains a Trade Centre, Keeper Hut, Quarantine, Staff Room and Vet Surgery.
  5. 14:35James matches the staff buildings to the surrounding town with customised walls, roofs and windows.

James Turner builds the welcome sign before getting down to the business of running a zoo. In "Starting a new Zoo in Planet Zoo 2!", a circular planter, stone paths and carefully matched staff buildings give Samarsh Zoo its first shape. Even the backstage facilities have to fit the neighbourhood.

There were no new uploads this week, but that franchise opener remains his busiest individual video for daily views. Nearly a month after publication, it is approaching 580,000 views. James names the franchise Bigwallet Zoos, chooses a sculpted New Zealand map and makes his own entrance plaza rather than spending on a ready-made blueprint. Saving money and fussing over the finish can coexist.

The Sims is supplying the other ongoing draw. "Do you remember The Sims 4 Get To Work? (Part 1)" brings the brothers back, while "I invented a cloning machine in Get To Work! (Part 2)" advances the scientist career. The two episodes are drawing almost equal daily audiences, despite the first having a substantially larger total.

Across the channel, weekly views reached about 411,000 and subscribers were unchanged. Daily viewing is a little below James's usual level, in contrast to the busier spell lilsimsie is enjoying. For James, the current attractions are pleasingly practical: a zoo entrance to build and a scientist with a cloning machine.
