== Overview ==
''Diamond Heights is already a successful theme park with great rides - develop it to double its value.''
 
'''Diamond Heights''' is the first of only a few scenarios with a goal of [[Park Value.]] Thisgoal isin stillthe anoriginal easy''[[RollerCoaster scenario,Tycoon]]'' and ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon howeverClassic]]''. There are already several pre-built rides builtwhich work well, but they are slightly old, andwith Agoraphobia and Claustrophobia arebeing prone to crashing with the next Station Brakes Failure. Still, this scenario should pose few problems.

== Scenario Guide guide==
You can read the scenario guide [[Diamond Heights/Scenario Guide|here]].
One of the biggest problems with Diamond Heights is its uneven terrain and huge bodies of water, which makes virtually any form of construction a little more costly. The first thing that you should probably do is build some shops and stalls as the guests are probably hungry. You should then diversify the variety of rides in the park. You might also want to focus all Research & Development funds at first to shops and stalls so you can get something that sells drinks. Then you can switch it to Thrill Rides and Gentle Rides. This will allow you to build future attractions, such as [[Go-Kart]]s and [[Water Slide]]s, before the end of Year 3. While the four roller coasters in Diamond Heights are probably more than enough to satisfy the needs of the guests, you may need to build a fifth roller coaster in order to reach the objective, although this should only be done as a last resort.

==RCT Classic edition==
The Steel mini roller coaster ''Arachnaphobia'' has been replaced by a [[Spiral Roller Coaster]] with the same name. Its design is almost the same as the original but its spiral lift hill isn’t as tall, it only goes up 15 meters. The track features an additional helix element. Now the ride operates trains with just two cars per train. The list of available and researched rides has also been upgraded.

*The Spinning roller coaster trains are not available in RCT Classic
*This park has got the [[Compact Inverted Coaster]] available for research instead of the Inverted Coaster. It features the same 2-seater cars as the Inverted Coaster of vanilla RCT1.
 
==Other notes==
*This is the first scenario seen on the title sequence of vanilla RCT1. Even with both add-on packs installed, Diamond Heights still has the most amount of camera shots (seven shots).
*Diamond Heights is one of the three parks that were included in the ''RollerCoaster Tycoon'' demo, the other two being [[Forest Frontiers]] and [[Evergreen Gardens]].
*As stated on the original [https://web.archive.org/web/20010709133538/http://www.rollercoastertycoon.com/test/index2.html. Rollercoaster Tycoon website], the rides in Diamond Heights are named after characters from a children's play, "Indiana Jane & The Doppelganger Diamond", which was written by Chris Sawyer in 1997.
*This park appears to contain references to Indiana Jones, as well as parodies of themes and characters.
