Park Beyond Reviews
There are some technical issues yet to be solved in Park Beyond, but the game does a pretty decent job in giving you the control of your own theme park. Yet, the experience is very limited and can't fully deliver the vibe that creative players legitimately expected.

Park Beyond delivers a fun and addictive theme park builder and management sim experience, and elevates it with its delightful impossification mechanics. Some technical issues and console-specific problems do hold the experience back somewhat, but this is still an easy game to recommend for fans of the genre.
Does Park Beyond capture the magic of Theme Park World from the early 2000s? Not quite, but damn, it tries. It feels like a nice, happy medium between the complexity of Planet Coaster and the simplicity of Theme Park: stick to flat rides and prefab coasters if you want, but if you’re the more creative type, you’ll get a huge kick out of the freedom Park Beyond’s coaster building and design tools give you. Packed with personality, plenty of gameplay and some truly wonderful ride designs, Park Beyond is a must for theme park sim fans.
If classic construction and management games are overwhelming for you, Park Beyond will offer you a lighter experience, but with an interesting level of challenge. However, the Impossification option that gives it an unique touch was not enough to make it a must-play game.

Park Beyond is a spectacle to behold with some great ideas, but the glitter and lights don't quite hide the shaky foundations that desperately need some repairs.
I can see what they were going for with Park Beyond, and they did get achingly close to it, but right now, and at least in its console variant, it’s not quite a recommended game without a little bug stomping and AI fine tuning. Also an option to switch on total bastard mode, so I can be the truly evil park operator of my dreams wouldn’t go astray, Limbic Entertainment. Just a thought, you understand.
Even with its current amount of bugs and other rough-around-the-edges aspects, Park Beyond is a brilliantly imaginative simulation game that'll take you away to a carefree and fun-filled world where you can easily make the park of your dreams.
If there's one thing Park Beyond can't do, it's its management system, which doesn't work correctly and will frustrate you. So, if you prefer a sandbox, Park Beyond is a game you can enjoy. If you're looking for a theme park operation simulator, you should go back a few years when simulators still knew their limits.

A crazy and colorful game of construction and management of amusement parks in which imagination will be our only limit to become the best and most imaginative park designers.

Park Beyond | Recensione – L’erede di Theme ParkLimbic Entertainment has packaged an insanely fun managerial, content-wise more than satisfying and featuring a level of customization that is truly above the premise.

It can be hard to compare Park Beyond to its obvious inspirations, even if there are many similarities. On its own, this is a park management sim that places emphasis on fun above everything else, even at the cost of a more involved management aspect. The space for creativity and freedom is unmatched, but the lack of depth and unpolished state of things can leave much to be desired.
Park Beyond is a good first attempt from the makers of Tropico. The base is very entertaining and you can find quite a lot of entertainment here. The eight missions give the player a nice full introduction to all elements and the game is certainly not easy. The game uses Unreal 4 and you can certainly see this. But the interface holds the game back considerably when it comes to building roller coasters, roads or complete buildings.

Park Beyond takes you into the mind of a manager who must ensure that an amusement park runs smoothly and brings in money. Sounds interesting, but we already know this formula from Planet Coaster. Park Beyond borrows a lot of elements from that game and that makes Park Beyond feel like a cheap clone in a new jacket. Certainly not a bad game, because customizing your roller coaster yourself is a fun option. Don't expect too much from it though, because it's fun for an afternoon and then you're done.

Park Beyond is nice visually, however it's so buggy at the moment, it can't really be recommended. If it's fixed, it will be a fine alternative to RollerCoaster Tycoon.

In fact, having not previously played any amusement park simulators, Park Beyond was exactly what I expected. All sorts of actions I performed throughout the game and all the mechanics included were more than expected, but I don't consider that to be entirely a bad thing; It is not necessary to reinvent the wheel when it is in perfect condition. Throughout the time I've spent with the game, my main notes are related to its performance and, given its price of 50 euros on Steam, I had a more polished experience.

Park Beyond, which wanted to bring a new flavor to the Tycoon genre, failed to use its full potential. It has the capacity to become much better by solving various technical and in-game problems.

Park Beyond offers a unique and engaging park simulation experience with a focus on creativity and extravagant rides, making it a standout in a market with limited competition. However, it falls short in its economic management aspect, with the challenge of balancing park profitability often leading to frustration, and the controls can feel unnecessarily complex, detracting from the overall enjoyment.
Park Beyond may have lightyears ahead with its impossification mechanic, but other features and bugs encountered made it not worth the while of spending hours sinking in the game.
Park Beyond's premise is an exciting one that's full of promise, but its technical issues, gameplay limitations and core fundamentals hold it back from being a truly polished park tycoon title.
Park Beyond goes beyond just a fresh coat of paint in the genre and sets a new standard for future games with innovative ideas and challenges. It invokes fun and nostalgia reminiscent of Theme Park, which must have been its inspiration.
