★☆☆☆☆
Micro transactions cost way too much & alway busy.
I always enjoy theme park games since Rollercoaster Tycoon, so I tried EA "Free to Play" Theme Park.
Just like most so called "Free to Play" You are limited to what you can do without buying tickets or theme packs for real money. Everything is timed, it take x amount of hours to build, upgrade and received money for your rides & shops or you can use tickets to speed things up. The game is fun to play for a few minutes a day but that's about it. Not much to do after you collect your money.
Cons:
No customization, you can't change any colors of the rides, can't add scenery and can't place rides anywhere on your park, only on pre sectioned areas.
Tickets take forever to get and the best rides can be only bought by tickets.
Micro transactions cost way too much, for example you can buy 300 tickets for $9.99. You would think that you could buy tons of rides for that amount, but no because a lot of the rides cost more than 300 tickets! So, you could pay $20 dollars for only one ride! That's crazy! For 20 dollars, you could just buy Rollercoaster Tycoon 3: Platinum which is way better than this game. I wouldn't let any small children play this game. You may find a very large bill at the end of the month. 3 Stars.
Update: I couldn't log in for over a day and when I finally did, I lost my daily gift and you would need to use 5 tickets to start it up again, also I lost 2 of my rides, so I gave up on this game.. 1 star.
