Theme parks are a huge market all over the world, after all, who doesn't love them? These are magical places full of emotions and games to bring joy. They are the very definition of having fun, but there's a lot behind those parks, and it's not easy to keep them going. But is Theme Park World as exciting as a rollercoaster ride? Electronic Arts bring yet another simulation experience here, we're here to talk about it.
This is a simulation game about theme parks, but we're not going to be attending different parks or anything like that.
A simulation game where we'll be the manager in charge of keeping the park running. We start the game with only the Lost World Prehistoric theme park, and as we progress we'll earn more points, money, and we'll be able to expand.
As you get more visitors you earn more money and unlock new attractions. Design your park carefully to keep the visitors happy and everything running like a clockwork. The game works a lot like the Zoo Tycoon titles, where we have to take care of even the planning of the park. You'll have to pick the best attractions to keep your visitors happy in Theme Park World, but keeping them happy is not just about the attractions.
Your park must offer bathrooms and cleaning services, even gift shops. It's an excellent managing simulation experience, and it would be the beginning of many other similar titles that were heavily inspired by this.
This game is a little odd, you'd expect it to be first released on the PC, but the original PSOne version isn't that great. Mostly because of the controls and the graphic capabilities of the original PlayStation. Making decisions feels great, and it's super important to make the right ones to get your visitors happy and make your park more successful.
Being in a theme park is not all fun and games, but this game is pretty addictive and nice, especially for those looking for a relaxing and comfy title. Graphic and visuals: The limited graphic capabilities of the original PlayStation aren't all that great. That's the reason why this game looks the way it does.
But even with that, it still has a pretty solid visual style that makes it enjoyable. Gameplay: Getting more points and upgrading your park is highly addictive, and it feels rewarding.
The controls aren't too great, but they are alright. As you progress enough to get 4 golden tickets, you can get a video camera. This camera will allow you to interact with the park from a first-person point-of-view.
This adds more fun since now you can finally play in all the games you've kept running for so long. The first time you open any window, he will give you a basic run-through of what you can do there, and if there are any other messages if there are any areas of excessive litter, if people need more drinks stands, if new rides have been developed etc he'll let you know about them too.
Unfortunately, he keeps coming out with the same phrases, which get annoying, and I haven't found any way of removing him from the screen.
Another problem with this is that, although most of the messages are relayed on the screen, there is the odd one that isn't, so if you want to turn your speakers down to avoid the advisor, you might miss the odd message too.
Your visitors are hard to keep track of. Unlike RCT , you can't click on them to find out what they are thinking, or what they have bought. Instead, you have to go to the "all-visitors pop-up screen" where you'll find out visitor moods, how long they've spent in the park and how much money they have remaining. You also have a handy map, which lets you know the hotspots for litter, vandalism and enjoyment; all this will help you decide what you should be doing in order to keep your visitors happy and in the park.
If only these screens were easier to find in the first place - I spent ages looking round for them. The best aspect of the whole game though, is the camcorder mode, the ability to wander round the park and have a go on the rides. By doing this, you get to experience the park first-hand and consequently know what is missing do you need more flowers, more shops and how the rides feel to ride are they too slow, too high.
I've never come across such a feature before and it really is a great addition. You can also take pictures of your park and send them as e-postcards to your friends. This is only part of what EA are hoping for though. They also plan to set up a community for Theme Park World owners, which will allow members to visit each other's parks and have a go on the rides.
Which should be wonderful if it works out. Theme Park World benefits from some great innovative ideas, the camcorder mode is inspired, and the ease of creating rides is a godsend.
However, there are a couple of niggly little problems which let the side down, there are only four parks included, that onscreen advisor did become far too annoying and occasionally the interface did prove difficult to navigate. There are a lot of sim games around, and, although Theme Park World is not a bad game, it needs to do more to be my preferred theme park title. You may also need the NoCD exe.

And it runs very smooth despite my laptop being slow as hell. Zoner 1 point. Use to rotate blueprints. The goal-less and stress-less nature of the game is what makes it great. It's a sandbox, for your creativity to shine.
Nor are the additional rides you could download. Vukling 1 point. Ah man. Tried it - managed to launch it, installed all the available patches and updates. When I want to start the first park, though, nothing happens. Brandon 2 points. The two are almost identical except for the assistant which has a UK accent. Lee 0 point. DebitCardInfo 3 points. It's a 'launcher' for the game which tries to apply fixes and make it run on our modern computers. It's on Github though, so maybe someone can figure it out fully one day.
