About the game
Night at the Zoo: Latecomers is an expansion for Night at the Zoo from Capstone Games, designed by Tomáš Holek (2026). It plays 1–4 players in 30 minutes, for ages 10+. BoardGameGeek players rate it 8.1 out of 10 and call it light (0.0 / 5 weight).
The Zoo has opened four new enclosures, welcoming more animals into the park. Under the cover of darkness, these curious beings joined their friends and escaped! Help them to return to the Zoo safely, but be careful as some of those new arrivals have more complicated ways to move!
Night at the Zoo: Latecomers expands the strategic asymmetry of the game while leaning into its whimsical charm. Introducing "late-arriving" animals with specialized movement patterns and unique nocturnal abilities, it forces players to rethink their typical paths through the zoo's districts. It's a rare example of an expansion that deepens the decision-making by challenging you to master new synergies, while keeping the gameplay streamlined and lighthearted enough to teach in seconds.
