Can you beat RollerCoaster Tycoon without guests going on rides?

You go to a theme park to ride rides, but what if that's not allowed? Can you beat RollerCoaster Tycoon 1 and 2 without guests riding any rides?

As predicted Nüsse came in and solved the final six scenarios without needing to use rides. How? By double closing the toilet. It takes guests a little while to pee, so you can expel them by double closing it and they'll pay for it again and again. I did a short test and got to €15000 of profit in just 3 days with the 5500 guests from the Sherwood Forest setup.

People get really upset when forced to walk on a narrow path with dozens of other people constantly bumping into each other, unless of course half of the people they bump into are dressed as astronauts or pandas

Marcel: "This bit of code is called every 12.8 seconds."

Me: "That's a weird name for a funct--- oh"

I like the idea that these parks have commercials claiming they have the most roller coasters of any theme park, but in fine print it says they're inaccessible.

This is where I've been for the past three weeks as I've put over 100 hours into this video. Let me know if videos this long is something you'd like to see more of!

"But of course, those stupid little guests don't cooperate with our very neat setup and will leave the queue line after a while because they have the patience of a bloody goldfish" - Marcel, expecting his guests to stay in line for 4 years in game or literal hours in real time

"Many beginner players assume that in order to beat RollerCoaster Tycoon 1 you have to first install and open the game. This is usually true; however, there are some caveats..."

You wanted a theme park, you got a furry convention.

I love the mini coasters at 35:40 being called "kwik", "kwek" and "kwak" (those are the Dutch names for Donald Duck's nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie)

46:54 I want to bet a whole lot that the little time delay between counting the money paid and the rides ridden is exactly the time the guest takes from the entrance to their seat. I skipped through this part of the video frame by frame, and in the exact moment the rides count ticks up, you can see a face appearing in the back of the train, right behind the sloped part of the entrance building. A good way to test this would be to build an "inefficient" ride with the entrance building at the back end of a long station, and see how long that delay is on that ride.

Imagine getting free ride tickets for a ride that isn't even accessib- oh look a panda! Yay! ...what was I just thinking about?

Tune in next week when Marcel beats every scenario without even installing the game

*Hires a bunch of astronauts and Medieval knights to my theme park* Ah, yes, the NASA scientist and English swordsman, my favorite anthropomorphized creatures!

I appreciate the "actually yes" joke at 5:20

[AwesomeDeBawesome]

12:12 "First, I will remove all the path in the park, which will not only prevent guests from going there, but it also gives us some extra money that we really don't need."

Love this joke.

[LilacMonarch]

3:26 I love how you modded the game just to change "entertainer" to "furry" xD

[CarstenSvendsen]

33:38 Marcel closing all the rides individually is the most insane thing I have ever seen from this channel...

[iwersonsch]

In Germany there's a Fairytale Garden inside a Blooming Baroque theme park, which i believe can be quite a neat experience without going on any mechanical rides. Of course the rides do add something, but it's a pretty solid park even with just the theming

6:25 you missed out on a brilliant german joke here by not saying this guy is nuts

[arandomperson]

THIS VIDEO WAS 51 MINS LONG?!?!?! I can't remember the last time I watched a video that *felt* this fast while still being gargantuan in length. What a journey... excellent work, Marcel. You managed to keep me entertained the whole way!
