Castelgarre

It's been a long time, but I decided to whip out RCT for another park. I started this park right before NoLimits came out and just decided to finish it off this week. It's a medeival theme park with a woodie, suspended, floorless, and a compact Schwartzkopf. It's probably my best park to date.

Go easy on me guys, I'm no Natelox.

Well, this will mark my first review of my new reviewing age. And, just to start it off with the first review ever, the park was another mod from TN (all a co-inky-dink).

Anyways, here goes
THEMEING: Not bad. Simple, and to the point. Sticks around one theme for the whole park, and used some good ideas. Some of the buildings and stations were a little too large, and plain.

COASTERS: Great. I love the simplicity, yet great layout and pacing of your coasters. The Schwarzkopf looper was great! I also applaud your Suspended coaster. I think any great Suspended coaster is great, and sometimes my favorite it any park.

6.6 out of 10

Coasters.
I thought you had a good blend of coasters in this park. It's nice to see a park that has some other types of coasters besides huge flyers, inverteds, and steel twisters over a mile long, or something like that. It was also a nice change to see a park where the coasters aren't too tall. I especially like Sorceror. It looked really good, almost like a coaster you might find at a real park.
Overall coaster rating: 7.4

Scenery.
First of all, I want to say that this park was probably the most well organized park I've ever seen. A small island in the middle, surrounded by a moat, which was in the middle of an island, which was also surrounded by a moat, which was surrounded by land bordered by a wall. Simple, but very nice looking. There was a nice blend of trees in this park. The gardens were very nicely done, as did the castles.
Overall scenery rating: 7.5

Other rides.
Like the coasters, there was a good assortment of different other rides. They fitted in well with the general design of the park. The names weren't bad either. I liked River Raider a lot. It may not have had a great excitement rating, but it looked like fun.
Overall other rides rating: 7.0

Missellaneous comments.
This park had good rides, good theming, and was well organized. Everything fitted together very well. Since this nothing in this park was too big or complex, it looked a lot like a real life park. I wouldn't be surprised if someone did make a park modeled after this park, and personally, I think the real life park would be great.

Overall park rating: 7.5

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'm all about realism, so that's what I was going for in this park. I know the theming isn't quite as creative as a lot of people's, but it's the best I can do. Thanks!
