Fun Fortress gives us a castle and castle walls to build within-- long before the actual castle scenery was a thing. There's nothing too challenging here except for some odd terrain, which we'll tackle as we typically do.

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?

Karts & Coasters is another scenario I dont have fond memories of but I think thats largely down to the poor starting rides and how dense the dark tree coverage is. Were going to fix the existing rides, clear out some trees, and build a pleasant little park in the woods.

Bumbly Beach is RCTs Blackpool Pleasure Beach inspired scenario a nice little wooden coaster to start and a pretty small park to build in. The goal will be easy to attain, but lets try and get this map feeling suitably dense with some rides and attractions stacked on top of one another.

Roman Village gives us one of the most themed maps to start a scenario and a somewhat tight space to squeeze in enough for 1500 guests. Well have to balance compact ride installs while keeping the Roman vibe for a successful build. Come join us!

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.

Magic Quarters is big park. Were given 4 quadrants, a train, a castle, and a park value goal that requires us to build out the map. Lets try and give this park a full build-out with some theming and a few different areas. This is a long build so buckle up for a multi-part video!
