Thrillville

The original Thrillville is one of my all time favorite games. I love theme parks and the idea of making your own is fun. I remember playing Roller Coaster Tycoon on the computer and loving it and when I found this on the original Xbox, I instantly fell in love. I like the idea of playing through an avatar so you can actually explore the park. Walking around and going from different sections of the park gives you the authentic feel of being in a real theme park. You can actually ride the rides, play the games, interact with people, it's a blast. This game has a fantastic selection of minigames. There's a ton of them, my favorite is a 4 way tie between these first person shooter type games. They're all themed, one being western, one being sci-fi, one being pirate, and one being a haunted house theme. You can find different guns, shoot through robots that match each theme, and explore cool locations. My other favorite minigame was called Luftwafe 109, an overhead WWII airplane shooter with different levels, each having creative boss airships to battle and armies of enemy planes. There's cool racing games a bumper car game, and some shooting galleries. I love them all. I love the different parks you can unlock too. They were very creative and detailed, especially for the time the game was released. Thrillville was ahead of it's time and it's still one of my favorites to this day.
