Balancing the park’s layout and offerings is crucial to maximize visitor satisfaction and profitability.
The game features multiple modes, including a sandbox mode that allows for unrestricted creativity and a simulation mode that introduces financial constraints and competition. Players must also conduct research to unlock new rides and technologies, adding depth to the gameplay.
