Problem is, as soon as you start diving into menus, you find screens filled with all sorts of customization options that you might feel like you need a manual to understand. In retrospect, I'm not even sure why - Planet Coaster's UI design is so simple a monkey could navigate it. The user interface (UI) sent me running to Google faster than the controls could have. if playing challenge mode on the harder/hardest difficulty, the most challenging aspect is watching the age of your rides (or Reputation) which means that any rides which are between 5-20 years old will not be able to make money as no guests will ride them (not even if they are free) but once you have a few classic rides you have essentially beaten challenge mode as you will become super rich you can disable staff management features (such as the need to rest) in the options if security is enabled, make sure to research cameras asap and place cameras every 30meters and set a few guards to stand on patrol as close to your park entrance as you can with many more walking around on their own, even with 100+guards you will still get pickpockets (its not a big deal unless your park rating goes down) maximize scenery with less money the only really challenging objectives are the coaster related ones (which can be downloaded via blueprints) the shop prices are not as important as I just left everything on default using infinitys guide to set prices helps achieve objectives even faster only research a few select rides, mostly intense rides, no slow track rides, I try to stay away from too many family rides only buy 1 cheap advertisement at a time never anymore, buy a different demographic now and then (teens for a few months, then adult) you have to make paths wide so guests dont get clumped up in groups (plan for traffic jams) never research shops/scenery unless you absolutely have to (use the scenery trick if you want to save money) try to keep paths in simple loops around the rides so that you can have intersections with the food stalls all near each other, like say you have 3-4 rides on one side, 3-4 on the other, you could essentially get away with less shops if you place them accordingly in between

build rides in groups, I try to keep 3-4 rides with all the queue entrances close together next to each other, and rides exits leading out the opposite side of the entrance (or vice versa with exits all near each other) only build first aid if you have rides with extreme nausea and lots of vomit is in the area you dont always need an atm if you can beat the scenario quickly, but on harder scenarios you should get the atm asap 1 drink, 1 food, and 1 toilet (and maybe 1 atm) is needed for about every 5rides so if u have 7-8 rides you probably only need 2 drinks maybe 1-2foods and 1 toilet 1 atm, or if you have 12 rides maybe do 3 drinks 2 food 2 toilets 2 atms

Only build the necessities (coffee will not sell if you have lots of benches, dont hire entertainers) The best part is getting to share your work online for others to play! Scenario Editor - this is the same as sandbox, except with many more options to create the perfect settings, and guest behavior, and even make your own objectives. There's 4 difficulties, Easy, Medium, Hard and Harder, which will lower your income and require more patience to build your park. Certain aspects of the management are disabled, but staff can still quit and rides can breakdown.Ĭhallenge Mode - this starts off with limited money and requires you to research new rides and objects before you can build them. Sandbox - this is a blank flat piece of land with unlimited money for you to build freely. The first 5 scenarios are very easy, and if you are new to the game they will help you understand the basics of the game. After that, you will be given 4 options to choose from:Ĭareer Mode - this is just a random assortment of premade parks with various objectives, such as building rides or maintaining guests. You should start off by creating your Avatar which can be changed at anytime by clicking the icon in the top left corner of the games Main Menu, by your name.
