Next time I will take on Icarus Park! It will probably take me a long time since it is focused on ride tickets. Oh well
 
 
 
''Park Log: July 12, 2012'' '''Icarus Park'''
 
Icarus park was a bit of a challenge at first, but once I had a good establishment with lots of rides, money wasn't a problem and I beat it easily. I actually had to wait four months for the objective to be beaten, but that's because I had over $10,000, then over $11,000 twice, then $10,000 again. This happened in Vertigo Views where if you go over the goal, it doesn't count it. May be a glitch or something. But anyways, I beat it in 4 years.
 
Park Unlocked: Pleasure Island
 
Final Numbers:
 
guests: 1,461
 
Park rating: 732 (because of disgusting pathways)
 
Loan: $0
 
Ride Tickets (Not final month, but the most I had was in August Year 4): $11,874.30
 
Park Value: $36,825.70
 
Company Value: $65,083.40
 
# of Roller Coasters: 9
 
 
''Park Log: July 14, 2012'' '''Sunny Swamps'''
 
Sunny Swamps was pretty fun, I was able to beat the objective pretty easily. The large water coaster was a huge benefit, whenever parks start with rides pre-built they are a bit easier. But only if the ride is a popular ride and attracts lots of guests. Unlocked: Icicle Worlds
 
''Park Log: July 15, 2012'' '''Frightmare Hills'''
 
At first I thought I was going to hate this park because I knew guests were more difficult to please, but it turned out to be extrememly easy. I didn't use one marketing campaign, and the guests didn't really complain too much. I started freaking out because I had ~ 1,525 guests with only 5 days left and I thought I needed 1,600. But I only needed 1,500, so my worry was for naught. At the beginning, I demolished the coaster and built a new one that wasn't as intense, and it was a huge success. Plus I got a large amount of money from demolishing Frightmare, so I didn't have to raise my loan once and I got rid of the loan altogether by the end of Year 1. Unlocked: Southern Sands
 
''Park Log: July 16, 2012'' '''Thunder Rocks'''
 
I really didn't like this park, because the paths were disorganized and my handymen were worthless. But once I had a few roller coasters and plenty of thrill rides, it was smooth sailing. My best coaster actually crashed in October of Year 3, but it didn't matter because I had enough guests, and my park rating didn't dip below 700. Unlocked: Tiny Towers
 
''January 11, 2013'' 
 
Wow, it's been a while since summer! I sort of abandoned this project after finishing Nevermore Park because 1) Nevermore Park took my RCT spirit out of me, it was a long and grueling experience and I was tired of RCT after I finished in Year 12. 
 
But then I bought RCT2 again, and rekindled my interest for the game. I have spent the last few months on RCT2, with new Extreme Heights and Bumbly Bazaar scenarios (each in about Year 40), Bumbly Bazaar being nearly finished. So this RCT blog is sort of done for now, until I want to play the first game again. Which will likely not happen again for a long time, if at all. Stay tuned for a possible update with YouTube videos of my parks.
