Tips
  • If your game doesn't start due to minimum requirements, it's likely your graphics card doesn't support T&L (Triangle Setup and Lighting), a hardware ability for graphics rendering. Consider upgrading your graphics card.
  • For bugs like fluctuating ride and park ratings or rendering issues, download the available patch.
  • If guests aren't riding your rides, check their hunger, thirst, and toilet needs. Query guests to see their concerns and build appropriate stalls. If queues are long for some rides, guests may avoid others. Try editing the ride's queue to meet a path elsewhere.
  • If stalls are not being used, ensure they are open in the park management screen. Check that prices are not too high and that there is demand for the item sold.
  • If you were a peep, your stats would likely be a preferred ride intensity of Very High and a nausea tolerance of Extreme.
