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.

Thunderstorm Park places us in a rainy climate with a big map and a giant pyramid in the middle of it to give us a bit of space for rain-protected rides. Were going to take inspiration from Fantasy Island in the UK to build a carnival type park with some minimal theming and high density. Come along for the build!

Coaster Canyon gives us a fairly frustrating landscape to work with in a deep canyon that runs the length of the park. This is similar to Whispering Cliffs, just with more space to build and a very different environment. Lets do our best to build out the park in a semi-realistic way with some nice coasters and landscaping.

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, were looking at wooden coaster supports, a new Jet Star coaster, and misc. flat rides.

Harmonic Hills is infamous and for good reason! You cant modify the landscape, change the ground texture, remove trees, or build above the treeline. And to top it all off, youre given a very limited selection of rides to start. Well take it all in stride, however, and build out the map with 6 coasters and a few other bits and pieces.

Im excited to be collaborating with Andrew from MickanMans RCT Station to build out the Razor Rocks RCT scenario. Were going to trade the park back and forth adding rides and theming to complete the requirement for 10 coaster of 6 excitement or higher. This project has me working in the original RCT rather than OpenRCT like my regular playthrough series. Its a fun challenge to have all the original game restrictions.
Today were going to add a giant B&M inverted coaster with an Egyptian theme to anchor the back area of the park.

Ivory Towers starts off as a bit of a mess with vandalism everywhere and a couple poor rides. But theres a lot of room for improvement despite the terrain so well give a shot to improving the park with some new rides and revitalized existing ones.

Hydro Hills gives us a fair amount of space with a park value goal. Thankfully thats not too challenging as long as we keep building, but sometimes were our own worst enemy when it comes to inspiration for coaster layouts. But well push through it and fill out our park themed to a...fish farm?
