Wow! I was absolutely blown away by this project and what you were able to accomplish here. First off, the concept is great. A really unique and fun concept although it does clearly build off of previous works such as adventure time and some other more abstract pieces of RCT. The music choices were pretty hit or miss for me, by themselves, all of the songs were great and added to my experience viewing the park. However I felt that the songs clashed a bit and it was jarring going from one section to another. I would rather have had all of the songs be more laid back and piano driven to maintain continuity between sections. 

Foliage and Landscaping: I'll start this off by saying that all of the foliage and landscaping were generally done at a very high level and I'm writing this section with the knowledge that you are really good at the game. The foliage and landscaping was a mixed bag for me. The object selection was really solid and the clumps look great. I did find that the foliage along water lines was not done as well as I'd like. I wish you would have used more 1/4 tile bush objects to make shore lines look more obscured in areas. For example, in the below picture the transition from land to water is jarring as its just a straight line.

The landscaping was pretty good throughout this park. The landscaping in "The West" was very good in particular. there was sections that didn't quite do it for me though. The Japan section in general felt really dead to me. The lack of buildings and atmosphere would have made a lot more sense if the landscaping was more defined and busy. I wish that that entire section was filled with cliffs and waterfalls and bridges and just intimidating landscaping in general. 

Architecture: Clearly the highlight of this park. In fact, I was as impressed as I've ever been when viewing the architecture in the park. All of the areas had very solid architecture. I've posted some of my favorite moments below.

The use of the ruined statues in this house is straight up genius and looks fantastic. the atmosphere in this little floating island is incredible.

This is such a good looking station building for the river rapids. The shaping is so good and the objects choices and colors are just perfect. Really amazing work.

The castle in general is outstanding work. It is so difficult to make a structure that big and have it have so much character and detail. your use of adding in subtle colours throughout the castle was really impressive and worked great. 

In general, I found the architecture in this park to be groundbreaking. All of the smaller details like your signage really made everything look new and innovative. Unfortunately there were still a number of unpolished spots like the train station which looks almost unfinished on the backside. 

Rides and Everything Else: The stonehenge center piece was awesome. All of the layouts seemed pretty solid to me. I also loved a lot of the small details like the little curved stage in the medieval village area, the car falling off of the driveway in the west area, and all of the movement throughout the park. While this project was slightly rough around the edges, I still believe it is a groundbreaking piece of RCT and shows that you are an extremely talented builder. Even with all of my criticisms, this is one of the parks of the year for me. you should be extremely proud of the finished result here. 

85%/yes

mini golf looks great. I'd probably get rid of the pool on the roof. There isn't enough space up there to do a pool justice. archy looks pretty solid overall. I think the thing thats holding this back the most is the colors. I'd get ride of all of the light blue and yellow accents on the hotel. I'd replace the awnings with the green corugated rooves. I'd replace the light blue accents on the downstairs pool with more beige. 

Wow! I'm really impressed by this screen. Its very clear that you have a natural knack for the game lol. I'm really excited to see what you can make once you get more familiar with all the new objects and building techniques

Side note, I vividly remember being in awe of your spotlight park when I was a kid way long ago. It's really nice to see you releasing new stuff! 

This is super cool ! Just from the overview of the map I absolutely love the vibe to this. While muted, the colours work really great together. I absolutely love the little pop of gold in the temple and the blues work really amazing throughout the entire project. 

Landscaping and Foliage: Really well done overall. The foliage in particular is really strong. I really like the lush atmosphere that you created with the towering trees and bushes scattered around. The tree objects you used were pretty perfect also. The colours of the greens are really great with the palette choice. I also really like how you were able to create such a full atmosphere but also find spots to let everything breath a bit. 

The landscaping was also pretty strong. I'm not really a fan of the obejcts that you used but I think you brought the best out of them. The canyon looks very natural and the river running through everything was a nice touch. 

Architecture: While there isn't much conventional archy in this map theres still a lot to talk about in this section. The gold temple was done really well. The little cutaway sections are also great throughout. This scene was awesome

The bridge was also pretty cool. really nicely done! This image might be my favorite from the entire park (minus the go-karts)

Rides: I love the bobsled going through all of the rockwork and cut away scenes. I didn't like the go-karts. They felt a bit out of place and weird. 

Overall: I'm very happy I checked this park out. Really fun! I rated it 65%
