Thrillville facts for kids

Thrillville is a fun video game where you get to build and manage your very own theme park! It was made by LucasArts and Frontier. You can play it on PlayStation 2, Xbox, and PlayStation Portable. In the game, you design exciting roller coasters, build cool rides, set up game stalls, and even create race tracks. You also get to add food and drink shops for your park guests.

Build Your Own Theme Park

In Thrillville, you become the manager of a huge theme park! Your Uncle Mortimer, who is a bit of a quirky scientist, puts you in charge. Your park is filled with awesome roller coasters, fun games, and thrilling rides.

You start by choosing a character to play as. Then, you can walk around your theme park and explore everything. Your main goal is to complete different missions in each park. Once you finish the missions, you can unlock new parks to manage!

Competing Parks

There's another theme park called Globo-Joy, owned by a rich and not-so-nice person named Garrison. Globo-Joy is Thrillville's biggest rival. To make Thrillville the best park ever, you'll need to complete many challenges. This competition makes the game even more exciting!
