Creating the ultimate park in Planet Coaster 2 takes effort, and your park rating is crucial to your overall success. Several elements contribute to your rating, and boosting all of them will help improve the popularity of your theme park.
We’re here to guide you through understanding your park’s rating and offer tips on how to enhance it. Whether it’s adding more scenery, installing additional restrooms, or upgrading rides, you’ll be on track to achieve the amusement park of your dreams. Here’s everything you need to know about park ratings in Planet Coaster 2!
What Is Your Park Rating?
Your park rating is what indicates whether your park is thriving or failing. If your rating is one star or less, your park is likely in serious trouble and will have a difficult time attracting guests. Conversely, a five-star rating means you’ll enjoy plenty of visitors filling every corner of your park.
Fortunately, you can easily track what elements of your park need enhancement. Access the park management menu and select the park options to review your rating and the areas that require the most attention.
If needed, you can temporarily close your park to work on improvements without guests around!
Inside the park options menu, you’ll have the ability to adjust ticket prices. This can provide your guests with a larger budget for rides, food, drinks, and souvenirs. The overall park experience contributes to your park rating, broken down into four main categories:
- Attraction Prestige
- Scenery Rating
- Unique Attractions
- Park Reputation
How To Increase Attraction Prestige
Attraction prestige hinges on the quality and conditions of the rides available in your park. To impress guests, it’s essential to feature well-maintained and fresh attractions regularly. Relying solely on the same rides won’t attract much excitement.
By researching newer ride options, you can enhance your selection. With attractions that cater to all budgets, you can continually upgrade and renovate rides to boost this rating.
How To Increase Scenery Rating
Your scenery rating is based on the decorations and landscaping present in your park. While you can place decorations anywhere, they’re most effective in areas where guests can easily see them.
The best approach is to enhance rides and attractions with scenery. Creating scenic walls or backdrops allows guests to enjoy different views, effectively increasing foot traffic to your rides.
How To Increase Unique Attractions
Offering a diverse mix of rides and attractions is essential for enhancing guest enjoyment throughout the day. You’ll want to provide flat rides, water rides, coasters, and more to cater to all your visitors’ preferences.
No one wants to visit a theme park with multiple versions of the same ride, and your guests feel the same way. If uncertain, consider adding a pool or flat ride to quickly boost ride variety.
How To Increase Park Reputation
The most challenging aspect of improving your park rating is managing its reputation, mainly due to the discerning tastes of your guests. Some are picky about their rides, while others are easy to please.
To keep your reputation high, it’s essential to pay attention to guest needs, including cleanliness, pricing, and dietary preferences. A favorable reputation ensures guests return day after day.
If you notice trash accumulating, consider hiring more janitors and placing more waste bins throughout the park. If rides are too pricey, you could temporarily make some of the less profitable attractions free to attract more visitors!
