Once again, it's a shame that my former (but rather ancient) laptop died. It's one of the reasons why I couldn't remember too much about my Crazy Craters park (since it was the last park I made before the inevitable happened). Thankfully, I'm now on a much more modern laptop. It runs with Windows 10 and I managed to get both RCT2 AND OpenRCT2 up and running again (even though I had to knock a few bucks off my card, create a Steam account, and even download all those track designs and whatnot once more). Nonetheless, I'm back in business and it feels good. It took me a while to prepare for the next park, since I needed to download everything again. I needed to avenge my fallen laptop and my Crazy Craters masterpiece somehow. It was tough trying to figure out where to go next to build this albatross, but after plenty of thinking, scenario browsing, and self-discussion.....



Icicle Worlds was the name of the game! 68 rides, 83 Shops/Stalls, barely surpassing 4,700 guests, it's the perfect "Welcome Back" tour in OpenRCT2 to my standards. Good lord, how beautiful! Obviously, you need 2,500 guests in your park without having the park rating drop below 700 to win. As usual, I did everything to cram in every last ride in the park and I loved the final result. Beating this scenario wasn't too hard, but it took a surprisingly long time to do. I ended up clearing the scenario around Year 6, but that's because it mostly had to do with researching rides and whatnot. What really got me the win for this park's objective was the gigantic Wooden Coaster you see before you: Frozen Mistress.



Yup. Over 10 Excitement. Absolute legend. This track design was made by Lunatim's Loopy Land (and it was originally in different colors and was named "King of the Wood"). I ended up renaming and recoloring it because I wanted it to fit in with the theme for this park. Alongside Frozen Mistress, I also ended up making a custom Log Flume (Frozen Utopia) and Go Karts (Arctic Expressway; apologies for the view and results; littered with trees, not to mention underground for the most part) as an added bonus.



As for the the transit system (Icicle Rail), the stations are scattered all over the park, not to mention I was putting the lines in one by one as the park expanded. Thankfully, I made sure to place the stations right near primetime attractions like I do in most of my creations. The Rice Line (Green) was the first line I worked on for Icicle Worlds and it was because I figured I needed a quick link from the park entrance all the way to Frozen Mistress so people don't have to walk all the way over there.



Most of these rails were a piece of cake to construct (five in total; 3 Monorails and 2 Suspended Monorails), but the sole hardest line to work on was the Tomato Line (Red Suspended Monorail). Funny, considering the Tomato Lines were usually the easiest ones to make. I wanted to make it travel from the colossal Reverser Coaster (To and Fro) all the way to the corner of the entertainment district. The height restrictions were rather troublesome, so I ended up using the cheats to remove the restrictions so I can try to get the train to glide over the entertainment district. Other than that, the only challenge outside of that and constructing Station 2 was getting it through the tracks of the park's Hypercoaster. It took some time, but its final result is majestic.
