Thrillville: Off The Rails (Wii)

Advantages: Nice presentation, retail price is affordable! You can ride your own created rides!!!
Disadvantages: Not much replay value and Multiplayer is a little lackluster.

...Well I went off to the shops at Lakeside searching for this game and I swooped it up fast at (£20) as I am a fan of the series in particular! Even Theme Park DS had me off my feet and thinking about a sequel. Thrillville: Off the Rails with its isometric like views, 2d graphics and ability to create rices then ride them yourself! Running the parks is a straightforward as goals within the gameplay are easy enough for beginners to accomplish but another little feature I likes was the little booths you can find scatter that have mini-games. The use of the touch screen to movie rides and different attractions for users to interact with is more impressive than Theme Park but the presentation and lack of multiplayer lowers the score.

Advantages: Lots of mini games, excellent for new generation gamers
Disadvantages: Will not keep a more hardcore gamer interested for long

Even hiring staff includes a mini game, as each staff member needs to be 'trained'. You can also ride each rollercoaster and carnival ride that you build, pressing the A button for an authentic scream when... Read review

Advantages: great coaster physics, cool and crazy coaster parts.
Disadvantages: slow pacing story

...to be able to connect to the start again. if you dont want to play the story mode or you just want to do something different you can go to the main menu and either play the mini arcade type games and try to beat your high score. Also you can go on the coaster builder mode and build a big ride judt for fun. you can make them as big and deadly as you wish without the worry of power limits. oviously it still needs to conect but you can get help and make the game find a connection root for you. When they say "off the rails" they arent kidding. with ths thrillville game there is new coasrer pieces called "whoa" parts. these vary from deadly to crazy. whoa pieces include brick walls or big spinning fans smack bang in the middle of the track. you can make your coaster crash but the people riding come down on random parachutes that appear out...
