Construction and management games are fun because they make us feel responsible for something as big as an empire, even something as small as a restaurant. What many of these games have in common is that they are based on the rules of reality, which allows for a unique and entertaining challenge.
However, just because management games require a bit of grounding doesn’t mean they’re incapable of flying to new heights. To prove this is Park Beyonda new amusement park creation and management game made by Limbic Entertainment, developers of Tropico 6. We are talking about a game that wants to break some rules of reality so that you can create a park that truly lets your imagination run wild.
Bandai Namco Entertainment recently let us have a taste of Park Beyond. With her we were able to learn a little more about this proposal and what makes it interesting.
From the first approach with the player, Park Beyond makes it clear that it seeks to be a delivery with a slightly different proposal. Yes, the management of the park, as well as its design and construction, will continue to be the protagonists; nevertheless, Park Beyond seeks to be a little more.
The thing is that the game does not greet you with a thousand construction tools or with the start of a complex tutorial. Instead you will see a first person cinematic cut scene where your character is invited to dream and create the theme park of his dreams.
The presence of this scene is not an accident, nor a waste of resources for a gamescom 2022 demo. It is a clue that presumes us to be an integral part of the game and that is that Park Beyond It will have a kind of campaign mode that will have a story in which you will take the role of a visionary architect who seeks to transform his vision into a reality.
According to Limbic Entertainment, this campaign will introduce you to a diverse cast of characters, arguing about how crazy (or not) the amusement park you want to build should be. Each of the protagonists in this story has a role in managing the park, so your mission will be to convince them that your vision of how to solve park problems is the way to go.
With this, the campaign Park Beyond little by little it will reveal new tools that will allow you to transform your park into the craziest thing you can imagine. That’s not all, since little by little it will introduce you to all the elements that you need to manage to guarantee that your park is a success. For example, when we play it we focus on building our first roller coaster, learning how to use tools like the cannon or ramp jump, and figuring out how to make it work.
The latter is extremely important for one reason: Park Beyond wants to break the limits of what is possible does not mean that it lacks rules. Your mission in this game will be to create an amusement park and this means fulfilling certain obligations that will make it an economically viable and functional venue.
For example, when designing your roller coaster you should make sure that it works, that it reaches the end and that it is safe. For this, you must ensure that its ups and downs are appropriate so that the cart does not stop. Even fantasy elements such as ramps must meet certain conditions, because if the cart is slow it will not be able to make the jump, but if it is too fast it will derail and will not reach its goal.
On the other hand, the management Park Beyond It has 3 different layers that you must take care of so that the park is a success. The first is to order the park and the stage so that it is the park you want. The second is management, which consists of tasks such as ensuring that your park generates more than it spends and that it has the right staff. The last one is optional and is the optimization layer which consists of reviewing heatmaps and other data to find what small improvements you can make to make your park the best it can be.
The good news is that, as we mentioned before, there is a lot of room for fantasy in Park Beyond. Its editing tools allow you to create truly crazy maps and even modify the terrain to make wonders of nature or amazing monstrosities. In the short time we got to play it, we didn’t have enough time to create anything pretty, but it did make it very clear to us that its options are deep and great.
In general terms, Park Beyond is an interesting management game that is easy to use, but has enough depth to keep you hooked for hours. Without a doubt, Limbic Entertainment is on the right track with its new project and it’s a title that fans of management games should keep an eye on.
Park Beyond is in development for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC. You can know more about this amusement park building game by clicking here.
