    Great to start with until you find that the game is broken. Im contantly getting staff quitting even though i pay them high and train them. Every few seconds they are walking out. I got large staff rooms for them but they wont use them at all. Benches and bins get randlised all the time even though i have CCTV cameras and security everywhere but they do nothing at all and quit too.

I got large staff rooms for them but they wont use them at all. Benches and bins get randlised all the time even though i have CCTV cameras and security everywhere but they do nothing at all and quit too. Crowds of customers huddle in groups on the path and get stuck so cannot get them to move. Even crowds stuck 50m in the air somehow. Exit gate for rides also is common for people claiming they are stuck but they aren't. This always happens meaning that i cannot proceed at all so i have to start again only for it to repeat. Im so annoyed as this game obviously hasn't been tested and coz i preordered it i am stuck with it and cannot play it properly. Waste of money. Avoid.… Expand

    Terrible design, literally a **** you to console players. Just play on the computer or nothing else thats how broken the menu design is. Its so stupid and hard to get to anything plus theres a million menus. The game is just menus

    The tutorial is awful and the controls suck. Rent the game first before purchasing. I wish I had a pc to play this on instead.

    The console edition of Planet Coaster is a great port from PC that works perfectly with console controllers, and if you are a fan of simulation games and patient enough to learn all the mechanisms of the game, you will definitely enjoy it.

    Planet Coaster is uplifting and allows you to let your imagination run wild. It’s full of charm, wit and is the perfect escapism that fits your every need. [Issue#183, p.94]

    That aside, Planet Coaster is indeed the best theme park creator we've ever had. In Australia, there aren't many theme parks left at all (can you believe that Sydney - a major global city - only has one theme park, and it's a tiny space that can be walked across in a few minutes), but there was a big one when I was growing up, and this game takes me back to looking forward to going to that theme park every so often. There are some UI issues, and one or two clunky moments within the management side of the game, but nothing that detracts from the sheer creative joy of playing around with those coasters and creating the park of your dreams. I can almost smell the churros.
