Theme Park

I used to play this on a black and white screen. It was on two floppy disks, as far as I remember, and it might had been a shareware version, but it was one of the best games I have ever played! God, those memories!

It is a very good game., And the volume and the price is low, it is fun. THANKS!

Virtually unplayable on Mac. I spent about 3 hours banging my head against the wall trying to get features in this game to work, an hour of which was spent hunting down and reading the manual online. The game is very, very laggy. Sometimes the game will respond correctly to a mouse click, other times it's like you never clicked. Very, very confusing to figure out what is going on in the game as the game is very unhelpful and the port is buggy. Ultimately, after reading the manual, I realized the game was just extremely buggy and there was nothing I wasn't understanding. Seems like it would be fun if it worked better.

Do you want a park management game what will crush your head in a vice and prevent you from having any fun? The only reason you should want to buy this game is to understand one of the roots of the modern tycoon genre and a masterclass of how not to design a fun game. Why is it unfun? Because it's flat, corporate, and limiting. Imagine if you would, a railway sim where you had to work your way up to building railroads. But you don't get steam engines, you have to push first, then get horses, and finally just as the scenario is over you get access to simple locomotives. That's the kind of uphill climb Theme Park is presenting. I realize that Theme Park was foundational towards management games that were actually fun, but it didn't have to be so cynically British about the whole affair. Don't. Unless you're morbidly curious.

I remember playing this game all those years ago and so hoped GoG would add this awesome game, and they did! Theme Park is an exceptionally fun and humorous game where you build an amusement park and manage your staff. This game will keep you playing for days on end before you notice you havent seen daylight in a week.
