As you progress, the game mode unlocks more pods, from explosive delivery devices through to containers which can eject into several more rubble-inducing parts. It’s pretty much Angry Birds but with a deeper sense of physics, scale and destruction. Demolition lives up to its name, as you fling orbs filled with volunteers at buildings that are standing in the way of theme park progress. The middle mode however, may just be the most fun. It’s a missed opportunity, but it still has its moments. It’s a solid mode, but one wherein the Xbox Kinect could have added plenty to the experience, sort of like an updated version of Kinect Sports.
It’s all about hugging a corner, taking a turn at the right speed and knowing when a boost will give you more power as opposed to it angering the laws of gravity enough to result in you losing several of your volunteers. ScreamRider has you piloting a roller-coaster cart in an on-rails experience that makes Fable: The Journey look like a GTA game in comparison. It’s a simple enough premise spread across three distinct game modes, that at the very least, is a cathartic afternoon experience.

Thankfully, the volunteers are clearly pumped full of the Captain America super-soldier serum, as no amount of damage is ever reflected on their ragdoll bodies or their enthusiasm. As a manager/designer/thrillseeker, it’s up to you to squeeze the maximum amount of screams out of your hard-hatted volunteers, flinging them through buildings and designing rides with enough turns to make a veteran astronaut upchuck his breakfast. It’s the future or something, humanity is bored with its current dystopia and the authorities want to change that public attitude with amusement rides that will have the population screaming their worries away. Hell, it even has a story that sets the entire game up. And that ain’t bad at all, as the game certainly does have some charm. Screamride looked very much like a spiritual successor to that forgotten genre when it was revealed last year at E3. If you’re stuck in the middle however, then your best bet to enjoy some proper topsy-turvy fun has most likely come from digital experiences such as RollerCoaster Tycoon. We’ve got two such rides locally, the reptilian-themed Anaconda and Cobra roller-coasters at either end of the country. One of the greatest thrills you’ll ever experience in life will be riding a proper roller-coaster.
