Daily duties consist of driving through the surroundings to locate sick animals and heal them. Very sick animals can be take to the station to be treated there. From time to time you will find lonely baby animals, which search desperately for their mother. The player needs to bring them back together. For your service you receive money, which you can use to buy supplies such as medicine, but also to expand your station and your services, by acquiring an x-ray machine or cages for animals.

The player is assisted by a gamekeeper. He will help you to learn your job. He also tells you when sick animals have been sighted, making it easier to find them. There are 6 different types of animals: kangaroos, wombat, numbats, dingos, koalas and horses.
