  It's curious to me with the fixation people who are new to the game seem to have with dueling, mirrored, and racing coasters to this day that the exact same thing was happening back in 2000. Obviously here it's intentional to have literally every single coaster in a pair, which annoyed me at first but became charming after I spent a bit of time with it following some of the older Danimation parks I have been looking through. It's also super obvious that this is just a modified Mega Park, although I suppose that's what everyone was doing to some extent until the Saved Game Modifier came along, and I honestly don't know when that was.

   

  I can't quite say this still holds up today, but it so strongly evokes the feeling of the parks from this time and it has such presence that I could see it being a hot debate over whether this would have been "high silver" or "low gold" in its day. I think if we saw something like this released now we would call it a high bronze, as many of the coaster designs are excellent and there is tons to look at, but the composition overall still feels a bit too much like an RCT scenario played out for 80 years.

   

  The highlight of the park is clearly Go Greased Lightnin'. The back of the park with the dueling floorless coasters is the weakest for me, and the entrance garden, while a cool touch, just has WAY too much of that one goddamn bush.
