Developed by Texel Raptor and released on Steam in 2018, it draws clear inspiration from the golden age of park sims like RollerCoaster Tycoon, yet distinguishes itself through refined systems, a charming art style, and robust mod support.

By far the best co-op multiplayer management game I have ever played.

As long as you don't come in expecting Planet Coaster (aka AAA+ graphics) you'll find a great game that is a proper Rollercoaster Tycoon spiritual successor, with more in-depth management then Planet Coaster has and a campaign actually worth playing, although the difficulty curve is a real mess.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.

Throw in custom campaigns (including a madlad who remade the entire Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 and 2 campaigns into Parkitect), and you have literally hundreds of scenarios to play across a wide range of difficulty levels.
