Planet Coaster has a Halloween DLC, and I think I'd be nice to have one for zoo as well! At least a Fall DLC that has decor like pumpkins, haystacks, cornhusks, trees with turning leaves. Things to really make a autumn-like feel the the zoo. Then skeletons of zoo animals, spiderwebs, more ambient effects (Lightning), things to really add a scary vibe to our zoos. I don't know what kind of animals would pair well with this DLC, but some suggestions I have are: The Black Rhino, Black Footed Spider Monkey, Sun Bear etc. I'm trying to create a Halloween Town in my sandbox, and these are the items that would help greatly!
Halloween/Fall DLC
- Thread starter MCas
- Start date
If this would be the 3-4 month DLC - wouldn't be that excited about it. I'm not sure adding new animals and halloween would work that great.
As an extra inbetween DLC with just building pieces, sure - why not? I think this would be the perfect pack for only exhibit animals (next to the building pieces ofc)

If ever there would be a time to have a free animal (or two maybe even), I would imagine an anniversary would be it. I'm actually kind of hopeful in that regard without trying to get my actual expectations up about it.
@MCas if you're trying to create autumn scenery in your zoo, there is a great scenery pack on the workshop. I used some of the items myself, they are really well done. Here's the link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2216770040
There are also some great spider mosaics and spider scenery on the workshop.

I kind’ve agree - actually I’m not really interested in any holiday-themed decorations... whatever area of the world they’re from.
Personally I'm more a fan of easter eggs - to celebrate a holiday.
If the next DLC should be NA - I wouldn't mind some building pieces/animals dedicated to that time of year.
Thanksgiving/halloween. I don't mind seeing a turkey in PZ
Well, that's true, I'd agree with that as well. Halloween is just particularly irksome for me.
I wasn't a fan of the Christmas decorations in the Arctic Pack either. In my opinion, it was time better spent on something more interesting and less niche.
I would like to see a Turkey in the Game. The wild Turkey would be great but unlike the domesticated Turkey they can fly very well so maybe a domesticated Turkey would be more likelyI don't mind seeing a turkey in PZ

If there were eggs, you could make incubators and nests in habitats to give a realistic effect to the zoo or make a breeding/rehabilitation education section showing off the eggs, they could be utilised outside of easter. I have used some of the christmas deco outside of season with good results, I think there is a few things in halloween that could be reusable for building/design outside of halloween
- pumpkins and pumpkin patches
- hay
- brooms, scythes, rakes
- piles of leaves (this could even be a toy for wolves and dingoes to play in)
- scarecrow
- rickety fences
- weathered wooden walls
- weathered doors
- broken windows
- smog effect
- lightning effect
- dead trees/logs
I think Reindeer and Warthogs would love it too
(at least if Food is hidden under the Leaves) Yes, we can never have enough of them. Especially when they are climbable.
All of this sounds great. Someone posted Pumpkins to the Workshop but of course real Pumpkins would be way better
That's an extremely fair point! It would not be fun to pay for a DLC that's focusing on a specific holiday/season because that's extremely limiting for people who don't celebrate/don't care. This idea would be more fitting for like an event/update instead of a DLC like you mentioned.
Thank you for this!! This is exactly what I was looking for, I love how creative people get with this game
