The premiere contest in RCT2 is back! New Element's Head2Head contest occurs every 3 years and showcases the best the game has to offer as teams of builders compete with their parks against one another.
Today we look at Valley of the Kings, made by Dr. Dirt, Gustav Goblin, Hobeon, and Scoop. This excavation site of an ancient civilization acts as a setting for this interesting map where there's lots to discover including some clever audio diaries. Come along for a visit!

Butterfly Dam ramps up the guest goal and gives us a fairly challenging terrain to work through. The large dam in the center with a retention lake behind and stream below gives us a good landscape to build from and sets us up for lots of terrained rides. Lets build out the map and get 1400 guests.

Were continuing the stream archives of our Pier Park series, which is really a whole English seaside village project. In this series, were building a Seaside Park set in the UK... but this is more than just a single park. Were going to have a Pier with rides, a seaside town and village, a harbor, transportation networks, and a large Blackpool Pleasure Beach style park in the center of it all.
Before we pivot to the UK concept, these first few streams are focused on a Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk style park. In todays episode, well develop some boardwalk infrastructure as it relates to the beach and a swinging frisbee type ride pad. Well spend plenty of time looking at maps for inspiration also.
Please enjoy and let me know what else youd like to see!")

Lightning Peaks is the first of the challenging scenario set in the original game. Theres almost no suitable flat land for building and quite a lot of rain. But were going to tackle it with a few coasters, even if it takes more than one try to get it done!

Future World is the first of the maps that tends a little more towards a fantasy setting with a Martian landscape and a big area to build. Were going to still go for a realistic touch while building out the full park with a number of rides and attraction. This is going to be a 4 part series our longest yet!

Rainbow Valley is the most infamous of the original game scenarios. With the inability to adjust the landscape in both geometry or texture and the inability to remove any trees, its a challenging map made more difficult by our goal of creating semi-realistic maps with coasters that flow well. Lets jump in and tackle the toughest scenario of the original game!
