Theme Park is considered as the perfect fit for those gamer's on Vizzed interested in business games. You must run the Theme Park successfully and make it financially secure, much like in the real business world. I guarantee that real-life theme park owners turn to this game for help on some of the aspects of running a park, even if some stuff on the game are fictional. First you must open a park, essentially an empty plot of land, and you only have one choice at first, the UK (my home country by the way). That's free, and is the only thing on the game that costs that much. With a budget of $200,000, you must build rides, shops, features, hire staff and research new stuff, all of which will cost money. The only way to make back the money is to make the park attractive to paying customers, who will pay the entrance fee, purchase goods and try-out sideshows. You can find out the attractiveness, reliability and capacity of rides by viewing them in a menu, as well as change how a ride will operate. For shops, you can change the selling price or quality of goods, and the prize worth in sideshows. A good way to make money is to place a Coffee Shop near the entrance, and several others elsewhere. Then set the caffeine at maximum and sell at a reasonable price. That will sure to get the kids buying, and once bought, a kid can then move quicker, going on rides or purchasing goods, and the money will roll in faster. Also, be wise when it comes to hiring staff. A small park will not need a high number of staff, and too many unoccupied can be a drain on your balance. Basically the only other thing is you are up against competitors, from all over the world, and you have to be better than them in 6 categories, which will also determine your overall placing at the end of the year. Should you wish, you can sell your park at auction, and purchase a park in another country, bearing in mind that climates are not all the same. Overall this is a good game for those youngsters who are ambitious, and dream of working in a career in business. Be realistic, watch out for any faulty rides and, most importantly, listen to the adviser. The road you go on will then be a smooth one.
