Theme Park Mania (2024)

About this game

Together all 2 - 4 players contribute to build the greatest theme park ever. During the first phase of the game all players build the layout of the park with paths and railroad tracks to earn cash. With the cash earned, each player can buy rides and facilities to connect them to the theme park layout. You also need team members to build, operate and secure your rides and facilities. When 4 rides are build, the park will open the gates for your guests. During the second phase of the game, you'll need to walk the board and visit all rides by playing move- and action cards. The first player to clear their mini meeple queue will end the game directly. No further moves or turns allowed. Time to count each players victory points. —description from the designer

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
