Restarting Zoo Tycoon DS: New Game vs. Delete Save File

There is no "Restart Game" button in Zoo Tycoon DS. You have two options:

Option 1: Start a New Game (Recommended)

• From the main menu, select New Game.
• Choose a save slot (3 available).
• Your old save remains intact in its slot—you can return to it later.

Option 2: Delete the Save File (Permanent)

1. On the DS main menu (before launching the game), tap the wrench icon (Settings).
2. Go to Data Management ▸ Nintendo DS.
3. Find Zoo Tycoon DS in the list.
4. Select Erase / Delete.
5. Confirm. This cannot be undone.

Note

Deleting via System Settings wipes all data for that game (including settings/unlocks). Starting a new save slot is safer unless you're certain you want a clean slate.
