Park Beyond brings a delightful sense of whimsy to park sims, but gets derailed by frequent bugs, poor staff control, and bad economics.

Park Beyond Video Review

2 years, 7 months - Park Beyond reviewed on PC by Justin Koreis. Also available on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5.Park Beyond does a great job tapping into the childhood whimsy that theme parks can elicit. There's a great sense of wonder to be had by impossifying rides, and the simple interface makes it easy to do. Incrementally unlocking new rides and increasing park capacity is rewarding, and creating something utterly ludicrous can be a blast. But that joy dissipates quickly when parks become unmanageable, as the attendees get stuck, staff ignores pressing needs, and financial ruin springs seemingly out of nowhere, while bugs and crashes make a late-campaign difficulty spike a miserable slog. Like riding an unfinished roller coaster, there’s fun to be had until the eventual crash, but it feels like this park just isn’t ready to be opened.
