    This park is so 'bad' in all the right ways. I love all the over-the-top carnival rides, trailers, detailed foodstalls, BBQ's and vast amount of vomit. So many great details like the hamburger, stereo's around break dance and the playground. Only nitpick I could find, was that a few awnings could've been 1 to 2 units higher for visibility. But very minor. I just love the vast amount of amazing vehicles.

    Incredible release. The atmosphere of a backwoods county fair is absolutely spot on, and the techniques used to recreate classic carnival rides are so good. I've never seen anyone do a zipper or a gravitron like that before, and the fun houses are the best looking I've seen in RCT2 so far. The vehicles like the food trucks and the seafood bus are insanely accurate too. Overall one of the best looking and most creative parks of 2021 so far.

    This is the next level of dirty American realism. Every one of these custom rides, structures and textures is truly inspiring. Definitely some of the most astounding micro to ever grace the RCT world. Looking forward to what this generation of builders will bring to full-size solos!

    Accidentally rated this 20%. Will check out this park later and adjust my rating accordingly. Stay tuned.

    Edit: I liked it and changed my rating to 70%

    Damn, I love it. The rides are all so well done and immediately recognizable, I just can't pick a favourite....

    Well, what can I say that hasn't already been said? A masterwork of realism and composition! Everything feels so finely balanced; The packed in rides and stalls of the fairground compared to the open lawns and spaces of the park; The grubby Earth colours and textures contrasted to the wild pops of a vibrant ride palette; The carefully composed foliage ensuring that no areas of the park seem overgrown or bare.

     

    The details are mind-blowing! I'm guessing this is based off a travelling fair you have visited? If so (and even if not) it's obvious this park took a great deal of research to pin down all the immaculate details, and that's something I really appreciate :)

     

    A near faultless park, and a demonstration that a park doesn't have to be huge or even based around a specific theme to truly blow our socks off! Kudos :)

    This is awesome! Always wanted to do a park like this but a lot of the fair rides would be difficult to pull off before OpenRCT2. You guys nailed the atmosphere and everything perfectly. Great job.

    Really cool stuff; evokes a lot of nostalgia for me. I think you did a good job at capturing the atmosphere, and a great job at the custom flats. I think one thing that helped this park was that the setting allowed you guys to be a little messy compositionally/foliage-wise. ;)

    I think for me there was a bit of varying quality among the rides; for example - the tornado is amazing and extremely well done, but it's sitting right next to a fairly basic (in comparison) rainbow. One is exceptionally well done and the other is kind of a little less polished.

     

    Overall, really well done. Lacked some of the compositional punch that would have taken it to Spotlight levels for me, but without a doubt an extremely solid high Gold.

    This park was full of great little bits and you can tell you guys had fun building this. Although it's part of the concept, the park being a bunch of seperate bits didn't allow it to come together for me. Regardless it was a lot of fun seeing these carnival rides in rct. Something that we haven't seen much before and never on this level. Good job!

    i knew i would be impressed with this before i went in, and I wasn't let down. great work, so detailed, and so well-executed. its gross in all the right ways. I have no idea how you guys have motivation to build this kind of stuff but keep at it, it's fun to see. highlight for me was maybe the clown face on raunchy's house, but the sheer amount of custom rides and vehicles and things is just crazy. love it

    Thanks a lot you guys! I'm glad this park is going over well. It was an absolute blast to make with Hydro and Barn!

    I loved seeing all of the recreations of classic carnival rides, and the atmosphere is great. Amazing vehicles made from scenery as well.

    Never commented on this park when it came out.. really enjoyed going through it recently. Definitely can tell you guys enjoyed making it. Love the creativity that is on display everywhere with the various rides, signage, and backstage/travel stuff. Really neat.
