Learn how to build underground rides in RollerCoaster Tycoon to overcome rain challenges and meet guest goals in Part 24.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The pyramid in this scenario provides a unique opportunity to build custom rides underground.
  2. 2
    Only custom rides can be built underground; uncovered thrill and gentle rides will suffer greatly from the weather.
  3. 3
    Shops and stalls cannot be built underground, but they will still attract guests.
  4. 4
    Build rides both around and underneath the pyramid.
  5. 5
    Aim to build as many rides as possible under the covered area, being mindful of space limitations.
  6. 6
    Carefully plan ride placement and monitor cash flow alongside rainfall.
  7. 7
    The goal is to reach at least 1,400 guests.
Tips
  • Rainfall is frequent and a significant challenge.
  • Underground custom rides are essential for success.

Tips
  • You are unable to make any landscaping changes, including tree removal or altering land/water levels.
  • You cannot build any rides that go above the tree line.
  • Start slow due to the limited ride selection.
  • Focus on custom-buildable rides with quick elevation changes to navigate around trees and stay below the tree line, such as wild mouse coasters, the Virginia Reel, go karts, the car ride, and the cycle monorail.
  • Ensure entrances and exits are designed with adequate space for queues and paths.
  • Use advertising strategically to maximize guest count towards the end of the goal period.
  • Achieving the guest goal will require a good deal of luck.

Difficulty: 9.5/10. The restrictions on building height and landscaping make this scenario very challenging.
