Unfortunately, the recent changes and updates have really taken away from the experience, especially for long-term players. The progression was already quite grind-heavy, particularly when it came to collecting the resources needed to upgrade ride managers. Getting 10,000 resources was already a huge grind, but now requiring additional resources to evolve rides has made progression feel unnecessarily slow. Another issue that doesn’t seem to get mentioned enough is the weekly events. They feel almost impossible to progress through without spending money. I regularly find myself stuck around level 10, despite having purchased the no-ads option. The most frustrating part is the dice mechanic. It often feels like the number you roll barely matters, because so many rolls simply send you to Barbara Banks. Week after week, I end up with around 60–70 Barbara Banks points, but nowhere near enough research tokens to actually upgrade anything. Overall, the game has become far too grindy and restrictive compared with what it used to be. I understand the need for updates and new progression systems, but the current balance makes the game feel less rewarding for long-term players. I really hope the developers reconsider the resource requirements and weekly event progression, because the game still has a lot of potential. ### 3/5 — Awesome *2026-08-20, version 9.4.0* It’s great but the adds are fake it’s not just pressing buttons to upgrade please change the adds so it not fake! ### 1/5 — Money grab purple tokens *2026-08-18, version 9.4.0* Now you know damn well that purple token is a money grab, there’s literally no point in adding that other than to get players to spend money on this game which is reasonable but not this way. I promise you I’m not spending a dime on this game. Used to love this game but now it’s just like the rest of these money grabbing, freezing lagging azz games out here❗️❗️ ### 1/5 — Why??? *2026-08-18, version 9.4.0* I just started playing this game a few days ago,just went to the 3rd park. Why did I lose all my money? I spent so much time earning all that money just to lose it, not cool I liked this game very much until this happened, now not so much will be deleting your app. Do better. ### 1/5 — :( *2026-08-17, version 9.4.0* I worked so hard playing this game but for jungle ride it reseted my whole data. waste of my moolah:( ### 4/5 — Used to be the best, but one horrible addition *2026-08-17, version 9.3.0* The introduction of the purple research tokens has absolutely destroyed the game. I like the idea of the managers, and I understand having to use tokens for that, but the main issue lies in the “evolution” of rides. It is constant and relentless - I myself am stuck where I cannot upgrade a single ride, because getting these tokens is next to impossible. There is literally no free way to get these tokens, like absolutely none. Not to mention the sheer amount of these tokens that you need to get to evolve a ride. There isnt even a way to watch ads to get these tokens?! So this update is absolutely horrendous, and has ruined one of the best idle tycoon games ever. ### 4/5 — Old theme parks *2026-08-16, version 9.3.0* This game is SUPER FUN but I wish I could go back to my old theme park because I never got to fully max all the rides out and see all the upgrades. And now it is really hard to get money to go to the next theme park and it gets boring just getting on a collecting money and then getting off so I would love to be able to go back to my old islands and max them out. ### 3/5 — Change this *2026-08-16, version 9.3.0* Make it so you can upgrade things faster because doing it one at a time is hard just clicking over and over make it so you can upgrade things like by 100 or something ### 2/5 — So many issues *2026-08-13, version 9.3.0* Paid to buy die rolls and it changes how many i have or the prizes randomly with no change in game play wasting so much real money. Finished the normal park ages ago cant replay parks ormrestart without losing purchases and no update or new parks for as long as kve played. Releases updates with bugs costing money and coins so frustrating Crashes and lags constantly. No way to replay past parks of levels and can play through main parks really quickly with no way to play old parks a gain with out losing everything including purchases. It also has so many icons and highlights for all the buy options. Very expensive to buy anything in game and no new park theme parks to play for a long time. There are lots of crashes, overheats devices easily, closes window and lags constantly, will mislabel things (ie mission is reach level 100 on Sydney opera house and you do it and nothing change. The. You reach level 100 on Taj Mahal and it says that a the mission a do it’s mislabelled. Them itllsay up grade parking 1 level but ignores any upgrade a you play for. With out all the bugs and crashes and errors it’s 4 star, it would be 5 star if you could change and re play parks of ### 2/5 — Take away evolutions *2026-08-12, version 9.3.0* I can’t play the game because everything needs to be evolved and I have to watch 3 ads with 15 minute cooldowns in between just to upgrade one ride the 300 levels later I need to evolve it again ### 3/5 — kinda fun but frustrating *2026-08-12, version 9.3.0* hi i thought this game was rly fun but the only bad thing about this game is that every time you upgrade or add another ride it makes you reset everything and it’s honestly frustrating, it would def be better if it allowed you to just add onto the island without restarting from square 1, i deleted this game after the second expansion. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Products Purchased Never Received *2026-08-26, version 9.4.0* I made a purchase for coins but never received them. I had to contact apple support for a refund and once I get it, this game will be deleted. Not sure if it’s just my experience, but I would be wary of that when downloading this game and planning on making purchases. ### 1/5 — Changes are terrible *2026-08-24, version 9.4.0* I have tried to hold out through the changes, but the researching to get higher levels of a ride is utterly ridiculous. I’ve been playing this game for years. Before managers even came out. The research tokens are too expensive, are not handed out nearly enough, in quantities that are worth the cost of literally everything. The managers not being able to auto collect ride earnings until they reach outrageous levels is down right bad game design. It’s like the developers are only focused on personal profit and no longer care about the player experience. Leveling up your park and everything needs more research than what is realistically earn-able is not fun. This game used to be one of my favorite idle games. Now it feels like a chore to go in to collect meaningless earnings for rides I cant afford to “research” for higher levels. Collect 4 meaningless manager cards and 50 research tokens that’s just makes 6000 tokens needed to upgrade a manager to not even be at level to auto collect is awful. In this economy trying to sell booster packs for literally 40-50 bucks is outrageous. The cost of research tokens at 10 dollars for 1/2 the tokens needed for upgrading a manager is down right stupid. ### 1/5 — Horrible crashes *2026-08-23, version 9.4.0* Spent a few days building my park with 4 rides then when it ask if I wanted to add another park in a nearby city I did. When I exited that park to go back and check on my original park it had reset it all the way back to the beginning losing all the work I put into it. ### 1/5 — Scam!!! Lost all the paid items *2026-08-23, version 9.4.0* Paid for permanent items: Starter pack, General manager and no more ads, within 4hours, all the purchased items are not available and the system wanna recharge me again. ### 1/5 — This games gone bad *2026-08-23, version 9.4.0* This game used to be ok but now it’s nothing but cash grabs and micro transactions every 3 seconds ### 1/5 — Lost all my progress after paying!! *2026-08-22, version 9.4.0* Why did I lose my progress I bought dlc and everything!! I went to the second island and it reset me !!! ### 1/5 — You lose all progress when you move to new park *2026-08-22, version 9.4.0* Absolutely a piece of garbage game because of the implementation. It’s a good idle game set up but everytime you ape and several million points to open a new park, the old park is gone, the old income is gone, all the meaningful progress disappears. Deleting it now after I just moved to a new park and saw that there’s no way to keep income or improving the old one, it’s just gone. Low IQ design choice ### 1/5 — Generative AI “Art” Slop *2026-08-22, version 9.4.0* I don’t care what the rest of the game is. I downloaded this based off an ad on another app. As SOON as I saw the loading screen I deleted it. You want art? Hire a damn artist. Your laziness is ruining the planet, it’s theft, and it’s licking the boot of fascists who want nothing more than to profit off your laziness and unwillingness to think or create for yourself. ### 1/5 — Generative AI use *2026-08-19, version 9.4.0* Looked fun, but immediately deleted the app because the loading screen was so obviously AI generated 😭 You couldn’t use the models you already have in the game to make a loading screen render? ### 1/5 — becomes unplayable *2026-08-19, version 9.4.0* after you play for a couple levels, every single thing has to be evolved with 600 gems. you have to watch a million ads, and leave the game alone for days just to get enough to evolve 1 ride. it’s fun for about 8 levels then you can’t even play because every single ride needs to be evolved. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — nostalgia *2026-08-25, version 9.4.0* I played this game when I was about 8. I’m 13 now, and this game is one of the most addictive and amazing games I have ever played. ### 5/5 — Greatest game *2026-08-24, version 9.4.0* It’s a lot of fun and you get to enjoy creating your own unique Theme Park experience! ### 5/5 — Best game ever *2026-08-24, version 9.4.0* It is so much fun how you can build and create your own theme park and make a bunch of rides ### 5/5 — So much fun *2026-08-22, version 9.4.0* I downloaded this game thinking ‘this is going to be just another stupid game’. I was way wrong. I am personally jealous that I cannot ride this parks features. So much fun ### 5/5 — Make Park Skins *2026-08-19, version 9.4.0* The game it cool and nice but I also wish they mad theme park seasonal skins. I don’t make spending some money on a fun skin that can make my theme park look different. ### 5/5 — i love it but… *2026-08-16, version 9.3.0* i’m a big fan of the game, it’s fun but i wish they never added evolutions. it’s made the game frustrating, and now it feel like i can’t play it without spending money. either the evolution tokens need to be easier to get, or they should remove evolutions all together. the game was just fine before, im not sure why they added it other than to make more money. otherwise, i really enjoy playing this!! ### 5/5 — Research Points *2026-08-15, version 9.3.0* The game’s amazing overall and I love the concept of it, however the research points make life so much harder. Having to spend all your coins for just 1000 of them is such a pain. I think there should be another F2P way to gain research points and make the coasters actually upgradable. Also the waiting for it to upgrade part is just time consuming. ### 5/5 — Research Token addition *2026-08-12, version 9.3.0* I used to looove this game, now, most of the time, I’m finding myself just waiting on “resources token” all the time. Gotta wait on attraction managers pack to pop up and only got a limited amount of them per day, that being said, I can only progress when I have the tokens. Worse addition ever, other than that, game is fun to play. Wish they never added this stupid system, game used to be so rewarding and fun ### 5/5 — A really good game *2026-08-11, version 9.3.0* Best game I have played yet It is really fun ### 5/5 — Game: *2026-08-11, version 9.3.0* Only downside is waiting, and ads are optional --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
