Disco Zoo is based on trying finding a certain pattern of the pieces of animals in order to rescue them and put them in your zoo.
In the beginning you're helped because at the Farm section you get the animal patterns for free, and actually don't need to find them out which makes this game less challenging.
To see the free animal patterns of the Farm section, you just need to play the rescue game, then you see at the top which animals there are hidden beneath the tiles, if you click on this animals you will get a pop up with the animal patten in which the are hidden beneath the tiles, this makes it a lot easier to find the animals because you know in what order the animal pieces are hidden.
But after the Farm section you won't get any animal patterns, so you have to keep trying, failing and writing down or remembering which pattern belongs to which animal.
Or you can just buy the ZooPedia in the same section with real money.
The ZooPedia allows you to see the animal patterns of ALL animals.
But I prefer to just use your brains and figure out yourself, which will actually train your brain after a while to remember things better. So it's a win-win situation, because you train your brains, and don't spend money on the game which is nice.
You can find the whole ZooPedia here, beneath the text.
Because there is one thing that will really help you speed up you animal collection, it's knowing the exact patterns of each animal to win the rescue minesweeper mini-game.
So here you go, the full ZooPedia for free, just because I like to help you :)
I also added the awake time and how much the certain animal earns, but these are based on level one animals.
By rescuing 5 of the same species, you will get upgraded to the next level which means that you will get extra coins per minute and the animals will stay awake longer.
