The game uses a top-down, isometric-style view of the park. The main objective is to create a successful attraction by laying paths, placing rides, building shops and amenities, and keeping guests satisfied.

Players can adjust prices, buy supplies, hire and assign staff, research new attractions, and monitor finances. Visitors have individual needs and opinions, while ride breakdowns, litter, queues, and staff performance affect the park’s reputation. Progress comes from expanding the site, unlocking better attractions, and meeting financial goals in the selected scenario or play mode.

Start with a compact layout so guests spend less time walking between rides and facilities. Place food, drinks, toilets, and seating near busy attractions, and keep paths clear of litter.

Watch finances before buying expensive rides. Research useful attractions gradually, train enough mechanics and entertainers to cover the park, and adjust prices when queues or visitor complaints show that demand has changed.
