Is it possible to excavate Crazy Castle before beating it? 

You have no idea how fast my heart was beating at the end and how hard I cheered afterwards.

major props to every guest who hung on in the water for that extra tenth of a second before succumbing to their death. one final act of selflessness after spending $1100 at an amusement park.

This is the most thrilling ending in RCT history. Absolutely Incredible.

Oh my God, that ending was incredible

My man proving his heritage by ontpoldering Crazy Castle

I was totally not expecting the mass murder at the end. Amazing RCT park management. I’d never thought about killing everyone in the park.

BREAKING NEWS: Local Themepark Mogul Charged for the Deaths of Over 6,000 Park Guests at Crazy Lake The business tycoon and Crazy Lake (formerly Crazy Castle) founder, Marcel Vos, was found criminally negligent in the deaths of 6,720 park guests. He was handed a €10,000 fine and six weeks of community service for his misdeeds.

Now I want to see the opposite: A park UTTERLY FILLED UP with terrain to the cap. Possibly while having a fully functional park still inside.

I think an interesting challenge could be a “first guest” challenge where your goal is to see how long you can keep the first guest to enter your park/see how much money you can get them to spend without trapping them/making a maze for them to try to leave or other things like that.

One thing I am sure of: nobody is inheriting any money from these drowned folks.

Guest 1: "Hey, this park is boring, all rides are the same" Guest 2: "It is owned and operated by Marcel Vos. We are going to drown anyway, so let's enjoy it while we still can." Guest 1: "Fair enough. Let me get all my money from my bank account. Yolo."

"You're damn right that we're going to spam it (The Cash Machine) everywhere." All for raising 1.16 million euros and giving the guests quite the surprise at the end.

Spent all my life savings in this park just to drown seconds before CEO resigns.

magnificent ending, I have never seen such glory

I wish there was an option to automatically refurbish rides. I know there's a cheat to make them keep their draw, but it would be cool to have an optional extra yearly maintenance cost or something.

That count down had me on the edge of my seat! 😂

Very nicely done, I haven't done one of these yet where guests pay for the rides! And I love how unnecessarily exciting you made it towards the very end!

Marcel never fails to turn RCT into Factorio

I did not see that ending coming and it was amazing.

Did you somehow mathematically calculate an estimate of the exact time to delete everything and drown all the guests while still completing the scenario, was that done by trial and error, or was that a lucky first try?

It's odd to me you deleted the castle in the beginning. I thought to "excavate Crazy Castle" the whole point was to keep the castle, like an archaeologist.

All those balloons rising to the sky as the guests holding them sink down to a watery grave was beautiful and honestly quite symbolic of life and death itself…

This was more entertaining than anything I've seen on TV in years

I mean, if I ceased to exist the moment I left a theme park, I would also be inclined to spend my life savings there.

He didn't have to go that hard at the end. He went that hard for *you.*

The fact that this game is still relevant is a testament to how amazing it is

This is great, would love to see more challenge videos with a twist like this.

You are the greatest roller coaster tycoon player of all time, there is no disputing that the amount of content and skill you have can be rivaled by any other player at this point

How much money could you extract from a single guest - the only guest allowed to enter your park?

You beat a scenario lowering all of the land and turning it into a lake. Now beat a scenario while raising all of the land to max height.

That climax for ending the challenge was genuinely stressful even though I knew how it was gonna end

That’s some of the most anxiety I’ve felt on RU-vid. Marcel out here hanging onions

What is the best coaster you can make without using more than four of any single track element. Any coaster type. For clarification, small flat left turn, small banked left, large flat left, etc, are all different elements. This limit also includes the station. I think it would be an interesting challenge, but obviously up to you. Thank you so much for the content!

dude this video is soooooo good. It's so interesting and I'm already on my second time watching through it

If you finished with 1953 guests, that would have been absolutely dark, but perfect.

I love the ending, please do it always. Tell them that they need to learn to swim.

The way the balloons fly away at the end, as if it was their last breath.

Local madman arrested after drowning thousands of people in the ruins of his former amusement park.

You should have lowered all those ATMs down to the water so the drowning guests could withdraw whatever cash they had left and gave it all to you as their lungs filled with water.

I instantly knew what was going to happen to all those guests when you introduced the water lol

I guess this theme park isn't called "Crazy Castle" anymore since you removed the castle. It's now just called "Crazy"

I would like a challenge using only gentle rides in Electric Fields!

Well, that's another way to make guests to do that balloon ceremony

Just couldn't resist ending the scenario with some casual crimes against humanity huh?

Hey, here's an idea for a challenge, Maintenance Madness: Every ride you design must be able to kill its riders on a failure (I.E. Station brake failure). You are allowed only one maintenance worker. Both of these have some rather interesting secondary effects, the ride design constraint would prohibit some simpler micro-coasters, requiring a bit of creativity to fulfill that rather morbid design requirement. The single maintenance worker would also likely force you to design your park around all rides being easily reached by him so you can really get your money's worth.

And with their last dying breaths, the 1,595 remaining guests applauded the tycoon for completing his challenge, before finally sinking down into the depths below

When you visit the best rated theme park in the world after it underwent some odd landscaping and ride changes and suddenly the entire park gets removed from below you, sending all 6500 guests including yourself to a watery doom that's gotta be a hell of a way to spend a weekend

I expected a quality video as always but I didn't expect something so engaging just from the title. I'm curious about something though. How much work would it take to make a Heartline, or other terrible coasters get to 10 excitement? What would their other stats be at by that point? Could be a fun challenge or could just be amusing to see what a 10 excitement heartline looks like since I doubt it would really resemble the default look

Oh yes that ending of park... Marcel's special is what i am going to call it.

Haha...killer ending...that was just brilliant. I was kind of wondering why you didn't excavate as you went but after the water was added I just started laughing. Always entertained watching what you come up with next.

Chris Sawyer: "I felt a great disturbance in the Force. Like the terrified screams of thousands of park guests all cried out and then we're suddenly silenced"

The red coaster at 5:56 kinda looks like the killer rollercoaster idea.

and thanks to Marcel's drowning video, I know those 1500 guests were tired to last long enough to complete the challenge. Bravo!

What a fantastic surprise at the end. Your knowledge of the game and compact designs are always great content, but then you raise the stakes by risking the whole scenario for an incredibly tense scene. Awesome video!

"Guests don't mind spending their entire life savings on a single trip to a theme park where all of the coasters are basicall the same." Disneyworld. You're describing Disneyworld.

The final act of destroying your life's work leaving nothing behind reminded me of "Life A User's Manual".

Well, it seems like the obvious progression is to see if you can beat a scenario whilst raising all the land as high as it will possibly go!

Ideas similar to this... I'm no RTC expert, but here are some ideas for you to riff on. --Completing a scenario with the park completely underground (or just elevating the entire park land to max height). --Completing a scenario but you cannot increase or decrease the height of paths or rides. If there is a mountain or slope of the land, you MUST build underground or using supports to maintain altitude. Rides like the Observation Tower cannot be built higher than the base unit. Negative points for completing this in Forest Frontier or any other park with little to no elevation changes. --Completing a scenario but all the rides must be built outside the park (no part of the ride can be built on or above a tile that is within the boundaries of the park). --Completing a scenario but every single tile in the park MUST have a scenery piece on it before end of scenario. Bonus points if this can be done in a scenario where you cannot remove scenery. --Completing a scenario but you are not allowed to build washrooms (or food stalls or drink stalls or all three). --Completing a scenario but you can only charge enough to get 0.10 euros of profit per purchase of anything in the park. --Completing a scenario but you only are only allowed to make profit from on-ride pictures. --Completing a scenario but you cannot charge more than 1 euro per ride or stall items. --Completing a scenario but you are only allowed to use rides of the _________ type (or even a single ride). --Completing a scenario but you cannot attract more than 100 guests over the scenario goal (if a scenario asks for 2000 guests in the park, you cannot go over 2100 guests: getting 2101 guests fails the scenario immediately). --Completing a scenario but every queue line must be at least 100 tiles long. --Completing a scenario but you cannot use queue lines. Bonus points for not using single-entry rides like the maze, the mini-golf, and the slide. --Completing a scenario but you cannot use pre-built rides and you cannot undo any build actions (so if you build a roller coaster but get stuck somehow and cannot complete it, you cannot undo previous build steps to correct the error, nor can you delete the build; you just end up with an incomplete coaster that cannot be sold; same for building paths, queue lines, stalls, etc.) --Completing a scenario but you cannot hire any staff at all. Hope this gives you some food for thought.

the countdown ending is so dramatic and satisfying. I even thought I was watching a e-sport match. Good job dude.

Marcel Vos is an alien in the RCT game. I've never seen anything like it. Hugs from here Brazil to you Marcel.

Not having seen any of your videos before, the ending had me laughing hard. Didnt think that was coming. Thanks.

Marcel, you're awesome. Never change.

wow not only did you destroy the challenge you took it a few steps further. I loved this video! It was like watching a TAS. Now I want to give this game another try!

Any challenge that ends in guest mass murder is a good challenge in my book

Great video, do more challenges like this! I really enjoy your commentary as you explain what you are doing and why.

That ending was the best thing I've seen on any gaming video, ever

Marcel set out to achieve what seemed like an insane goal and then went above and beyond at the end! Amazing hahah

Guests here were absolutely top notch. Way to take one for the team.

This is why i subscribed. Amazing. The ending was thrilling!

Marcel, if these are the kinds of questions keeping you up at night, life must be good.

Police arives, investigating a mass murder at a local themepark... Cop: Gues we are at the wrong place, all i see is a massive lake, cant be here right?

Density Park challenge: Do a scenario like this, but instead of just hollowing it out, you hollow it out and fill it with ride and paths and stuff. And then build a fancy exterior. Use every cubic meter of available space.

I love the use of the Widor Toccata as you finished the challenge!

Dude, this is getting insane! Love it!!!

I like how even with all these microcoasters, the massive, normal looking coasters still have a place in the game. Shows how well they were made.

I loved this kind of video idea, it is taking rct to the next level

Marcel, you are a madman XD Congratulations on beating the challenge !

That was amazing! Well done Marcel!

My jaw literally dropped at the end XD this is a masterpiece.

"And you're damn right that we're going to spam it absolutely everywhere." Woah Marcel, chill out, it's just an ATM 🤣

Me, watching Marcel Vos Videos: "...what the fuck is this sorcery...? I'm just happy to be in the black!"

That ending was indeed amazing. It didn't disappoint. Thank you, Marcel. :D

I am so proud of you. You made my day so much better, thanks Marcel

I was screaming about the ending. This was amazing

I'm taking on my own personal challenge in Crazy Castle right now: "The Castle Is Sacred" * The park must be built entirely outside the castle walls. No building on castle grounds, either above or below. The challenge being that most of the area outside the walls is narrow. * No buying land, as the extra space would make things too easy. * No micro-coasters; any and all roller coasters must be full-sized. * No duplicate rides. So far, I'm at 424 guests at the end of Year 1, out of the required 1500 by the end of Year 4. Not speedy progress. Can't do much without that ATM. I'm also spending an exorbitant amount of money levelling the available land so it's more useable.

"Jack... Jack... hold on Jack... for 1/10th of a second more"

That final twist at the end... Wouldn't be Marcel with unnecessary mass genocide of park guests.

This is the Sim City equivalent of turning on natural disasters and sending a tsunami at your park.

This was amazing! Loved the ending

Wow!! Insane ending!! Good job Marcel! 👏🏻

That countdown. At first it seemed like there would be at least a thousand extra guests left easy. But then it got closer and closer, it felt like you either added seconds or slowed the timer down while the guests declined steadily. I haven't watched the video you said inspired this, but I'm confident this is the most exciting RCT video on the platform. If you do another I wonder if it could possibly be topped

I haven't laughed so hard in a while, because of that ending, lol... subscribed & hope to see more

"while it was raining" probably the worst thing guests could complain about.

That ending, I am at loss at words! Action Park could never!

This is truly classic Marcel content. :)

Marcel Vos answering questions we never knew we wanted to know the answers to.

Amazing! Wasn’t expecting that hilarious ending!

My god that was brilliant. Well done !

Kudos to you Marcel. You are the Craziest, wisest RCT2 player I've ever seen. Love your vids.

You absolute Mad Lad, this is brilliant! :)
