Think you can design and build the greatest amusement park in the world? You select the site, you layout the rides. In fact, you control every aspect of running a profitable amusement park; from hiring employees, to developing new rides, to maintaining an adequate supply of soft drinks. Any mistakes, and the bustling hordes of fun-seekers will let you know. Oh, and that Merry-Go-Round in flames is a clue too.
Select from dozens of rides and attractions.
Experience fireworks, weather effects, and more!
Keep your employees happy, or be forced into some real-time deal making.
Visit the Bank Manager to keep an eye on your cash flow.
Check the park status screen to see what your visitors are thinking. You'd better build a burger stand, the little peeps are getting hungry!

Wow I put some hours into this back in the day!
Played it to death on the Amiga then again on PS1 and again on PC :laughing:
Remember doing trade negotiations with the extending arms to try and shake on deal and nudging closer and closer then pulling back trying to save a few quid and blowing the deal :stuck_out_tongue:
Have some heat Turkey!

I loved this in the past but when I last got it for my laptop on Windows 7 I found it unplayable, not sure what I was doing wrong but it was just really flaky.

Take the £2 and put it towards Planet Coaster, not knocking this game...

You've had a good run if it's taken you this long to dislike EA.

I loved this game- still have the original big box CD version! It's a shame EA killed all those great UK developers :disappointed:

Agreed and I think I still have the box version too, the big companies ruined many of the smaller ones over here and the US. Westwood Studios, Lionhead Studios, Bullfrog to name a few.
I always wanted a better C&C game but the last "proper" one was a disaster (no bases in c&c, really?) typical EA. And Microsoft shafted Lionhead with Fable, though I've always wanted Black & White 3, but that's not going to happen now is it. Anyway, heat for a classic.

Turkey tip: put extra salt on the chips so they will buy more drinks, not too much though because you will make them sick.

dont forget once you have a go kart track, if you "accidentally" delete a piece of track while people are on it they have a crash...
