Basic Tips

Hints

Play through the tutorial to be introduced to the basics.

Playing through the career mode will help introduce you to all the features and mechanics that you can then expand on in sandbox mode to make the park of your dreams.

Start out small and build up slowly to more impressive ride and attractions.

Training your staff is worthwhile. Although it costs money, it will save you money over continually hiring new staff in the long run.

Scenery elements are important to keep your guests interested. More things to look at means less of a chance visitors will get annoyed while waiting.

Pay attention to how your guests feel. For example, if you increase your prices and guests are still happy, that’s fine. If they start to complain, it’s time to lower prices a little.

Vendors can be expensive. Try not to have too many, only enough to make sure the money they bring in is enough to turn a profit.

Placing ATM machines near rides and vendors is a good way to get visitors to spend more money.

Console Control Tips

Hints

While Planet Coaster is the same game at its core no matter which version you play, the Console Edition has a new control scheme, a radial menu, and other changes to better suit the new platform. As a result, it can be tricky to get used to how the controls work. For a basic overview of how to use the Console Edition controls and interface to create your park, check out the video below.
