Thrillville: Off the Rails demo rides onto XBLM


A demo for Thrillville: Off the Rails is now available on Marketplace. For those unfamiliar with the franchise, the goal is to design a successful theme park and, more importantly, to design awesome roller coasters. Thankfully, the roller coasters in Off the Rails benefit from not being bound by the laws of physics, so you can make them as crazy as you like. That means you can create loops, jumps, and lots of situations in which the cars literally go off the rails. Apparently, you can even end your roller coaster by catapulting riders out of the cars and having them deploy a parachute. As exciting as all that is, we're waiting for the spin-off series: Thrillville: Insurance Nightmare.

1. Anyone know if this game is going to be full retail price or is it going to be a bit lighter on the pocketbook?

5. Wow, I didn't even know this was coming out for the 360. I had a chance to play Thrillville on my PSP while I was visiting relatives, but never was able to get that far.

Looking forward to the demo...

8. Grant- the game is from the developers of RCT3. Also, the game is apparently less difficult than RCT.
