  Round 3 - The Age Of Exploration

  1400 - 1600

  Set sail for uncharted waters and distant shores. In Round 3, you'll design a park inspired by the Age of Exploration — a time when brave navigators crossed vast oceans to discover new lands and cultures. From the New World to the spice routes of the East Indies, from Portuguese trading posts in Japan to Magellan's circumnavigation of the globe, the world was being mapped and connected like never before. Chart your course and bring this era of discovery to life.

  Objectives

  • Your park must be set between the years 1400 and 1600, or themed to that era.

  • Your park must feature a port or dock in a recently explored location. This could include the New World, Portuguese exploration in Japan/China, the Indian Ocean, Magellan's expedition, or other Age of Exploration destinations.

  • Your park must include a prominent tracked water ride.

  Voting

  AJ's Alamo Expo AJ Remember the Alamo, Honey! The Alamo Expo combines hundreds of years of Texas exploration. Across the park researchers, archeologists, divas, shopkeepers, and wildlife experts are all sharing an afternoon by the Alamo. Layers of history sit under the modern day park. The first forts were built in the 1500s, old ships and treasure are being recovered!

  Bocas Del Tero Jens J. (95%) and J K (5%) In 1502, Christopher Columbus embarks on his fourth and final transatlantic expedition. During this voyage, he arrives at the shores of Bocas Del Toro, which we now know as a place in the far land that is Panama. Bocas del Toro is inhabited by the "NE-gäbe" tribe, a group of inhabitants now known for their expertise in OpenRCT2. They're living their best lives in a village filled with huts, pots and… a launched water coaster? Join Captain Columbus and his crew on the discovery of this mysterious place. Who knows what this place has in store for you!

  Memories of Mauritius Kumba (50%) and deanosrs (50%) The island of Mauritius was first settled in 1598 by Europeans and did not have a native population - except for the diverse wildlife of dodos, parrots and monkeys. Over the years it became a popular port for trade and eventually pirates came. The island has an incredible and unique landscape with caves, mountains, exotic sands and even the illusion of an underwater waterfall.

  Some quick early thoughts. All three great entries. Well done! They all have points in which they shine.
  
  Panama was narratively the strongest imo. Mauritius had the best rides, although I'm a sucker for heartline coasters. Alamo had the best soundtrack.
  
  Going by the objectives:
  I liked most how Panama was actually set in this era.
  
  Mauritius being a gorgeous port was my favorite interpretation of the second prompt. 
  
  Lastly I liked the water ride in Mauritus best as well. It was fun to explore the map through that ride.
