You have to build an amusement park, and then manage it so that it makes a profit. It is necessary to build new roads, platforms for performances, rides and all kinds of entertainment facilities in order to create an ideal park. An experimental strategy is best when you try out different ideas and by trial and error achieve the best result. The main thing is that the children - visitors to the park, be happy and contented. You have to learn how to earn golden tickets and strive to achieve your most important goal, namely, to create the most fascinating and most fun amusement park.
Tips
- Try to place the most important attraction in the depths of the park, so that the roads to it must pass through other entertainment areas, shops and attractions. Try not to put the same objects side by side, so as not to repeat. It is desirable, for example, to place shops with light drinks near the places where they sell chips or similar products, because salty chips cause thirst, and therefore many different drinks will be sold. Try to organize the park so that each shop and attraction is located near the main roads or in the direction of the main entertainment events. You’ll have to build giant roller coasters, go-karts, gutters; therefore, it is necessary that there is enough space around to accommodate other smaller attractions and shops.
- In the grocery stores, be sure to try to vary the number of incoming components. So, for example, for chips, it is salt, in drinks - ice, in hamburgers - fat, and in ice cream - it is sugar. By changing the amount of these products that you put into one or another food, you can vary the cost of the final product and thereby regulate profits.
- Try to build as many entertainment venues as possible, as well as small and large attractions, so that each visitor spends as much money as possible. It is necessary to change the price in arcade machines, trying to reduce the probability of winning, otherwise you will inevitably suffer a financial collapse.
- The most important thing is to follow the monthly profit. If it turns out quite meaningful, well, for example, a few hundred dollars from each attraction, then everything is fine, if not, then urgent measures should be taken, prices should be changed, etc.
- Place mass entertainers near long lines to the rides, so that people do not get bored, standing in line, and waiting for places in the attraction to be cheerful and contented. In addition, if the queue is too long, you can reduce the time spent in the attraction, for example, riding on a wheel or on the carousel, so that the queue quickly passed.
Gold Tickets

- When you get 4 gold tickets, buy a Camcorder, press R2 and go to one of the Sideshows, where press Square and play. If you win, get another ticket. Note: Please note that not all Sideshows can play this game.
- To get a golden ticket, you must play the main game. When you build your park, set up the various rides as close to each other as possible. Then train your staff and raise their level to five. Then run research, etc. Golden tickets are provided to you.
- To get the Hidden Golden Ticket, place the garbage containers near the shops where they sell food and drink. If you arrange them in the right quantity in accordance with the size of your park, you will also receive a golden ticket.
- Hire at least two security guards, raise their fitness level to 5, then install a sufficient number of security cameras to fully cover the park, and get a secret golden ticket for providing a high level of security.
