Many people still love those modern theme park sim games and this is probably the best one out there at the moment. Planet Coaster is strictly for PC only and it is actually doing rather well in the charts, mainly because it blends contemporary graphics and gaming speed with traditional gaming techniques. Being a new game on the market, there is no end of customisation options, so you can pretty much build anything you put your mind to.
Obviously it’s not just the building of the theme park that’s involved in the gameplay, it’s also the managing and running of the theme park and it’s this winning combination that will keep you entertained for hours and hours. What’s great is you’re able to put simple keyboard shortcuts in place so you can quickly and efficiently place, reposition, resize, recolor, and edit gift shops, ice cream stands, coasters, carousels, and walkways. If you’d like to see an example of the gameplay you can expect from this new release then take a look at the video below.
As you can see there are beautiful visuals, stunning colours and it almost has a rather quirky edge that’s been missing in these kind of games for many years now. Unlike the old theme park games, with this game each rollercoaster is tested, so it’s given a rating for Excitement, Fear, and Nausea. It is important to say that it can take time to make cool rollercoaster designs and you should start off quite simple first. We certainly had a dream of building a theme park and the modern touches this game has makes it feel as though you’re really experiencing it, and that’s why it’s pretty popular right now. Overall we have to give this a 9 out of 10. It’s that enjoyable. So give it a go if you loved those retro theme park games.
