Wait, This Looks A Lot Like Theme Park World! :O

[P R Λ E]

Does anybody else think the same? This does resemble Theme Park World a lot and if it is indeed similar then wonderful! :p I love TPW and haven't played it for years. Has anyone seen some gameplay of this and confirm my suspicion?

[Hooch]

I don't recall playing TPW...but I have played the Roller Coaster Tycoon series, and this is quite similar. See my other posts that give more "first impression" reviews.

Theme Park World was such a good game, I remember playing it like 10 years ago and just loving it to bits. I do have it on disc but I'm all digital now so I always forget about it. I have had a look at the Roller Coaster Tycoon series but the only which I've played and loved is RCT2, RCT3 just looks to childish to me but that is just my opinion

I just know the original "Theme Park" made by Bullfrog, is it like that?

@Ghanji Theme Park and Theme Park World are the same game afaik.They are named differently on different parts of the world

Yeah I'm sure it is, but to make sure this is what I'm talking about: http://www.mastertronic.com/product/theme-park-world

I have Theme Park which was on the PSX and Theme Park Rollercoaster for PS2. Both games made by Bullfrog and I think Theme Park Rollercoaster is the same game as World. This game definitely reminds me of it. Might have to purchase this at some point.

Theme Park was released early 90s and Theme Park World was 3D and released at the end of the Playstation 1's life cycle.

I concur, I've noticed of late that TONS of ''OLD'' game's are re-appearing on here as well as the green 'CRAPPY'' ones..so yes.. Im annoyed at seeing this as well.

I have also noticed many 'old' games (but sadly not good ones like Driv3r, yes I liked that game, WipeOut, Destory All Humans) re-appearing but I don't see this as a bad game at all. As long as this is a good theme park game I'm happy, it's just ones like Day One: Garry's Incident which annoy me. Those really god-awful ones which just plague Steam. But honestly, as long as I enjoy this game I'm not annoyed at it. And by green, do you mean Greenlit? Because most of them are actually good, fair enough most are rather odd but still

Theme Park World was more linear then the original Theme Park which very much sandbox.

Man I miss Bullfrog.

Theme Park World is also known as Sim Theme Park in the US. I still play it from time to time. SimCoaster too (AKA Theme Park Inc.). Adventure Park does remind me a lot of Sim Theme Park. The ride themes mainly, but also being able to ride the rides and walk around the park.

It cannot hold a candle towards Theme Park, unfortunately. I did hope the same.

True "Theme Park" & "Theme Park World" are different.

Anyways "Sim Theme Park"(known in N.A.) is my favorite coaster park game of all time. I hope EA re-releases it on GOG.com or a polished version of that game, I mean it was already perfect.

R.I.P. BULLFROG!!!!

I really dont get how you could find RCT3 to be childish when you seemed to love theme park world.
RCT3 had alot less cartoony graphics and the actual rides resembled the real thing even down to the sound and also had great customization which let you create all kinds of dark rides.
All the rides in theme park world was pretty much just made up.

The only thing about RCT 3 that could be considered childish is the menu screen, nothing else about it seems any less mature than RCT 2.
