[edit] Instructions

I removed the how to play information as it violates WP:NOT. I'll paste the information below this message, so someone can have a go at re-writing into a more encyclopedic form. DarkSaber2k 11:07, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

To play, deal out the required amount of money to each player. Afterwards, hire staff, which have varying prices depending on the number of players. Then, draw an event card and follow the instructions. Examples of Event Cards are All Players Collect Money, Move the Month Marker, Auction, etc. To build rides, you must auction them off and the highest bidding player wins. Then you must roll the "guest dice" to see what color guest group to move and how many spaces to move them.

You choose your color from the colors of red, blue, yellow, or pink for your color marker, which is displayed near the rides you build. To get guests on rides, therefore earning guest points, you must move the groups around the board, as aforementioned. If a ride is closed, no guest points are earned. The game is played by four players or with teams of two players.

To earn money, players must draw the Event Card saying "all players collect x dollars" or a card that says "Advance one Month: All players collect x dollars. If you go bankrupt, you continue playing, unlike in Monopoly.
