RollerCoaster Tycoon/Gentle Rides

Although many guests complain that they want to ride something more thrilling than a gentle ride, they have their place in a theme park and are an essential part of the scenario Gentle Glen. Gentle rides are called such because they are generally low in intensity, excitement, and nausea. Guests will usually ride a gentle ride after riding a high intensity ride or thrill ride. In the case of the carousel, observation tower, and other rides classified as "indoor", guests will prefer these rides to others during the rain.

Bumper Cars
The Bumper Cars (called "Dodgems" in the UK versions) is a generally fairly popular ride. The advantages of building a Bumper Cars attraction is that it plays a unique style of music and is considered an "indoor ride" so guests will be be more willing to ride it in the rain. The major downside to the Bumper Cars is that it will only activate once all of the cars have been filled. This means that guests may be waiting for a while before the ride can begin. However, the number of cars can always be changed so this shouldn't be an issue.

Car Ride
The Car Ride attraction is a simple, slow moving tracked ride. The fact that it runs on a track means that it takes up much more space than other gentle rides, but it also means that it can be made much more interesting than other gentle rides. Adding plentiful scenery along the ride can potentially boost the excitement rating higher than that of even some thrill rides. The "Crazy Critters" ride from Crumbly Park (shown on left) is a good example of this. The Car Ride will be considered an "indoor ride" if the vehicles are covered.

Circus Show
The Circus Show is an indoor attraction that takes place within a big top tent. We never get to see under the canvas, so we can only guess what goes on under there. The Circus Show can hold up to 30 people per show and its sounds and canvas roof during rain will attract guests, but circuses tend to become unpopular in most scenarios once the initial excitement begins to fade.

Crooked House
This attraction first appeared in the Corkscrew Follies expansion pack. The Crooked House is a strangely built house designed to disorient people. The excitement rating is decent for a gentle ride, but, unless it is raining, guests tend to avoid the attraction to find a more thrilling ride.

Cycle Monorail
The Cycle Monorail is best described as a hybrid between a Car Ride and a Cycle Railway. Like the Car Ride, the Cycle Monorail runs on a track, but the vehicles are pedal-powered helicopter cars. Unlike the Cycle Railway, the Cycle Monorail can uphill and downhill. If the track is littered with themed objects, the Cycle Monorail has the potential to reach a medium excitement rating while keeping a low intensity. It's the perfect ride for those low intensity tolerant guests.
