  • Summary: Off the Rails lives up to its name with 20 death-defying rides so outrageous, they inspire the same word from every park visitor who sees them: "WHOA!" Players build these incredible "WHOA Coasters" to leap from one track to another, launch through the air like cannonballs, blast through a burning rings of fire and more. A new lighthearted story ties together more than 100 missions, complete with 34 playable multiplayer theme-park games and social interaction with park guests that's better than ever. The in-depth conversations both advance the plot and suggest better ways to manage the park. But is every guest to be trusted? [LucasArts]… Expand

    Old fashioned to look at, but packed with invention and things to do. [Christmas 2007, p.77]

    For what its worth, Thrillville does a fine job of offering more amusement park managing fun while also adhering to the kid in everyone. It's still a little too kiddy for its own good, but if you are a fan of the series you will no doubt have a great time.

    The concept is better than the execution, but that doesn't stop this being a good game that provides more than enough choice to justify its price tag. [Dec 2007, p.108]

    Thrillville: Off the Rails is a fun single player game, and a really great party game! You can build roller coasters (and ride them), concession stands, mini-games (and play them) and more!… Expand

    It's not bad, really. It's got a little bit of everything to satisfy every type of gamer--from the Sims-like interaction with the crowd and the mini-games (which most are knock-offs of other more popular titles). The premise is, you start with a theme park with basic rides and you have to build your reputation as a park manager and friend doing multiple tasks such as park upkeep, running marketing campaigns, and of course making the visitors happy. The best part is definitely the mini-games, although a few really tough to master and come in with the high scores (such as the training of your ride mechanics with the motherboard circuits). Overall though, it's decent and should keep most entertained at least for a little while. Worth a rent.… Expand
