Funtopia

Overview
Covering land both sides of a highway, this park has several rides already operating.

Funtopia is a park built over both sides of a highway. A pathway across the highway connects both sections of the park. Many rides are available from the start, so research is not quite as important as in other scenarios. The main attraction of this park is the huge Steel Twister Roller Coaster called Grapevine. There are also a lot of trees in the the park, which should be removed by the player later in the game.

Scenario Guide
To win this scenario, you need quite a few exciting rides, primarily Roller Coasters. Because of that it is important to use the space available to you.



It should be easy to get money at the beginning, since you don't need to build a rollercoaster from the start. Grapevine should attract some guests, so start by building two to three thrill rides and anouther one or two gentle rides. It really is necessary to clear EVERY tree in the park, so don't be afraid to dip a little into your funds. Depending on your preference, you can either stick with the initial ride admission fees, or charge your guests at the park gates and reduce the orices for the rides. Either way, advertisment will help you get rid of your loan quickly.

Research should be set on shops and stalls first, so you get something more profitable than a Hot Dog Stall. With 9 Gentle Rides, 3 Thrill Rides and 9 Roller Coasters available from the start, you should not run out of new rides soon. As soon as you repay your loan, concentrate on building more roller coasters. You need quite a few to attract 1,400 guests. Remeber that you can go underground if necessary. Look at the height limit for your rollercoasters, you might want to build some of them on top of other rides to save some space and don't forget to add in a new gentle or thrill ride every now and then. With this strategy, it is possible to reach 1,000+ guests at the end of year 1.

Once you get over 1,100 people, the park becomes very crowded and you start to lose guests and you park rating. Put more footpaths if this happens to you, and also put more attractions at the back of the park.
