Walkthrough[edit]
Rounding the first ten scenarios of Corkscrew Follies is the first true challenge for this expansion. Although you have plenty of time to reach 1,600 guests, the park starts off with nothing but a small, black path and an extremely dense forest on a hilly landscape. With so much to tear down, creating new rides will be more expensive than usual. Winning this scenario will require frequently built attractions that work with the landscape instead of bulldozing through it.
Unfortunately, the ride selection you start with isn't very good, so immediately set research to maximum and focus on Roller Coasters or Thrill Rides and switch from one to the other. It's best to get either Go-Karts for Thrill Rides or Mine Train for Roller Coasters. Hire a couple of handymen and mechanics and build a Swinging Ship and a Spiral Slide to bring customers in before working on the first roller coaster. Preferably, pick a spot that requires tearing down the least amount of trees possible; once your profits are in the thousands, tearing down the jungle shouldn't hurt your cash flow.
Picking rides that have very small turns like Go Karts or the Virginia Reel can be beneficial for tearing down very few trees. However, there will be spots where tearing down the scenery is the only way, so planning ahead is key. Always save before building a new roller coaster, find a good place to lay your station, and carefully plan where to go. If you tear down too many trees while backtracking, it's best to go back to your save as those trees can give a huge boost in ratings. Once you have the cash, you can place the trees back in different areas or add new decor like the Jurassic theme.
It's easy to lose track of the goal when there's plenty of time to work with, so be sure to have a steady amount of guests coming in. For the first year, aim for at least 500 guests with two coasters running and around five to six rides in operation. There is plenty of space to expand across the river up north with more flat terrain. Be sure to make at least one complete circle to keep your guests moving from ride to ride. Invest in more Gentle Rides and Thrill Rides to get a few more covered rides as it rains frequently. The Observation Tower and the Merry-Go-Round can benefit from the large amounts of trees as well as cover your guests from rain. As always, remember to advertise or build a new coaster if the amount of guests stagnate.
