to work or not to work...

When i first got this game when i was in 5th grade (about 4 yrs ago) it was a lot of fun and really addicting. I played it just about everyday and i never got tired of but after awhile the game just stopped working. I would try to open it and it would do the Bullfrog thing but then my screen would go black and i would have to restart my computer. It did this every time and i must have re-installed it about ten times. After that i just gave up on it.
 

Disappointed!

Very unhappy with the purchase of this software! Per the maker of the game...they are having problems with it running on a
MAC computer....we found this all out after we had tried to install it! (and had to go on the Company website for support) Of course they do not let you know that prior to purchasing the software.....so now they have our money and we have useless software along with very disappointed kids! :(
Stay away from this item and maybe others made by this Company!

bad port, boring game

I received this game last year as a gift and I had nothing but problems with it. I was in touch with the company who ported it from the PC version. I think it was one of their first Mac ports, and they were little help. I finally got it working unders some conditions on my wifes Powerbook. I never could get it working on my G4 766Mhz desktop. I think it was the Nvidia card. Oh, the game is a complete memory hog, too.

Anyway, after playing the game for awhile, I discovered, while it is pretty to look at and fun for an hour or two, it is completely boring beyond that.

In sum, this game shares the SIM moniker but it doesn't live up to the SIMs name.

 

OSX update available free

Version tracker has listed an update for OSX and new graphics cards that may help the stability and ultimate longevity of this fun game. It is available at this ...
 

Confusing, with serious tech problems

It's simple at first, and kind of fun. However, as the game progresses, the roller coasters and attractions get harder and harder to figure out. The game (even with my G4 Cube) often freezes, and even in the game itself your rides break more often than natural (if you get my drift), the people you hire to fix rides and clean up the park stop doing their jobs even when you place them DIRECTLY in front of a problem. In the full version, all the little details confuse you to the point your head will almost explode. The people in your park get more and more impossible to please. It's more frustrating than fun.
 

[Junk]!!

If you own a Mac, don't bother buying Sim Theme Park. No matter if you think you have the system requirements met, it still won't work. Really. The game will almost always freeze randomly, or the sound will not sync up with the video, or you won't be able to toggle between game screens.

Seriously, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

 

Wow, Your thinking about buying THIS game?

This game has to be one of the worst purchases I have ever made. I own a 733 MHz G4, 1GB of Ram, a 500Mhz G4, 1.3 GB of Ram, a 400 MHz G4, 640 MB of Ram, and a 400 MHz IMAC, 192 MB of Ram. We called FERAL and were told that the 733 was to new it would work on the 500 and the IMAC and that the 400 Mhz G4 was to old.Out of all these machines this game will try to run on only the IMAC after you go and the patch which is not at all effective. You Crash Frequently and IT WILL NOT ALWAYS SAVE YOUR PROGRESS ( another very annoying Glitch). After Installation my machines moved very slow and I had to remove the game from my machines so that the could run properly. The game is relatively fun and the graphics are OK, BUT buy this game only if you have the required machine, you don't mind starting from the beginning, and you have the time to fix your computer. If you do any publishing this game installs WACKY fonts in you system folder. I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS GAME TO ANY MAC USER.
 

Great but has issues

I founf this game really fun but VERY slow in buy mode, sometimes you can't even buy anything.
