Ride Types: Difference between revisions

==Transport Rides==

 

 

These slow-paced people-movers include miniature trains, monorails, and chairlifts. You can (and are sometimes required to) build multiple stations as destination points. Use transport rides to give guests a scenic view of your park attractions while ferrying them from one location to another. These are especially useful on large parks, as guests get tired and cranky after walking for too long.

==Gentle Rides==

 

 

These low- and no-thrill rides are suitable for all guests (especially children). The Ferris Wheel and merry-go-round are examples of gentle rides. Most gentle rides do not involve custom design and tend to take up less space than more intense attractions. Guests frequently ride gentle rides after riding a high-thrill ride, such as a roller coaster, or a thrill ride.

==Roller Coasters==

 

 

These are the big draws of any successful park. Depending on your scenario and research, you could have access to many types of coaster technlogies designed to twist the lunch from your brave guests' guts. Most guests prefer roller coasters over all other ride types.

==Thrill Rides==

 

 

These fill the intermediate range in intensity between mild rides and roller coasters. This catergory can include the kind of swinging and spinning belly-churners found at your average county fair. Most take up small amounts of space, like the gentle rides, which make them useful for crowded areas that do not have nearby roller coasters.

==Water Rides==

 

 

Especially in a hot climate, there is nothing better than a ride that gets your guests all wet. Water rides include everything from rented rowboats to water slides and high velocity H20 coasters.
