* Swamp Cove of Corkscrew Follies/Added Attractions (also playable on Classic and Open) is a decent sized park that starts with a pretty solid pair of dual Inverted Roller Coasters. Sound fun, right? What the scenario doesn't tell you is that there's no [[YouHaveResearchedBreathing Drink stall and if you don't bother turning off the other funding options other than Shop/Stalls]], guests will complain about being thirsty. Even with Shops/Stalls as the only research option, a drink stand still takes a while to come through.

* On paper, you might think that building a lot of rides and maintaining them is what impacts your park value, but it's actually the excitement rating that strongly impacts it. Building a ton of exciting rides will increase your park value by a lot. However, the intensity and nausea rating also impact that park value too (although not as much as the excitement rating). It's also easier to just build a ton of low effort rides with astronomically high nausea and intensity ratings and spam them throughout the park. Additionally, as long as the ride doesn't open, the park value won't decrease. Just keep those rides stuck in testing mode and your park value will be staying up.

But what the game doesn't tell you is that advertising is forbidden on both of those parks. This means like Pickle Park (which explicitly has "no advertising" as its gimmick), you have to get those guests in your park (900 in 1 year for Fiasco Forest with 200 initial guests, 2500 in 4 years with about 200 initial guests).
* Every single tracked ride has "stat requirements" that are made so players don't get away with making low-effort rides. Failing these stat requires generally penalize the excitement/intensity/nausea rating, while some only penalize the excitement rating. WebVideo/MarcelVos has made a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UI9TSRBcejk general video]] about these stat requirements, along with most of his roller coaster videos describing these particular stat requirements.
