Six Frags has been a force in RCT2 for a very long time. He's made both PT Finals and placed respectably in each, won an amazing 5 VP awards at some other little RCT site you may have heard of, he even comes close to my own park count with 20+ parks compleated. Now Six Frags finally has a big NE release under his belt with Mystique!

In the first screen you can see the parks entrance, when I first opened the park and saw it I thought this park was going to be a spotlight, it's that good. Six Frag's shows as how well he can pull off different atmospheres. Also near the entrance you get a taste og his Innovative landscaping with the mini orange tree tops littering some type of shrine made of wooden ladders. In the second screen you can see Buwaka Swami, another great example of landscaping and atmosphere. For me this areas rapids "Cascade Rapidoante" was the best ride in the park with it's beautiful overgrown rocky landscapeing.
I have always liked themes that pull off the games red rock terrain and Medievoqo does just that. Red rocks, roves, flowers all with a dash of purple. The main ride here is Minoquatica, a decent river ride that crawls around the area. Next in the Mediterroni area you get a kinda greek atmosphear with all the bright white and blue architecture, it almost looks like something out of Lord of the Rings. When I came to this area and saw "Xana" I could feel the parks spotlight aspersions slide down fairly low. It's not the worst coaster I have ever seen by any means, but it just does not really make any good use of it's space and the layout leaves something to be desired.
The coasters in the park may have been a bit of a down point, however duels usually deliver and I think Sia & Mesa do, even if there layouts are a little short. This last area of the park was probably the most soild and had the most attractions in the park. In the final screen we take one more look at the Buwaka Swami area with it's big bad coaster "Bubba Hoteb" one thing I loved about this park was all the weird names, they were a lot of fun, kinda reminds me of Twisted's naming.

Overall this park earns a Super Runner-Up, it's not quite at Spotlight level, but it's better then a Runner-Up. I think Six Frags can reach Spotlight, however he needs better coasters, theming and a little more creativity, but he's got the rest down imo. Also with this release I think it's time to make Six Frags one of the NE family after his years of consistant great hard work. So congrats on the SRU Hans and welcome to the team!
