Linnunrata used to be my favorite coaster, since they added the VR almost all of the old theming has been removed. The rooms were filled with luminescent starscapes that looked amazing in the darkness, but now its almost all black since its no longer maintained. Almost none of it remains.

There's definitely much less theming in there after the VR was added. I've easily rode it over a hundred times over the years before the VR was added, so its a downgrade nowadays as the VR isn't even used. To me the VR ruined the coaster, used to be a nice go-to with short lines, but as the ride crew need to make sure everyone is good with their sets, it takes forever to dispatch a train. I remember always losing my shit with the awesome launch countdown too when I was younger, which has also been removed.

Honestly, Linnanmäkiis one of the most charming parks I have seen anywhere. I live in the United States and nearly all of our parks have a very corporate feeling to them. At Linnanmäki however, there is so much care and attention given throughout down to even the smallest of details. This park also does an amazing job of utilizing every available space to its maximum potential. There are multiple layers of attractions and there real sense of exploration going on . Shawn's vlog does a great job of revealing just how much there is to do and see. As the day progresses he discovers more and more rides and attractions he didn't notice previously. That kind of thing doesn't really happen at parks in the United States. Parks here may place 4 or 5 rides along broad straightforward paths in a 25 acre area whereas at Linnanmäki there are 12 attractions cleverly placed with more intimate paths interacting and weaving throughout. There are so many unique spaces and areas that you cannot find at other parks.

Taiga looks incredible. Overall though Linnanmäki looks incredible. This park is dripping with charm...lots of little details stand out to me, simple pointless ones like the thick vines entirely covering one of the support structures on the main walkway. The variation and uniqueness of the fences for the que lines, the eagle footprints in the concrete, all these little inexpensive things really make this park remarkable. The fact that the park's profits go towards a charitable cause speaks volumes. can anyone think of any other theme parks in the world that do this? Just in general there is alot going on. I am also quite impressed with just how many rides they were able to fit in that space and how well those rides are maintained. There is so much thought and care throughout. and wow, is park packed full of actors/actresses for the halloween season. Even the small scare attractions have actors jumping out at you in nearly every room. I don't think I have seen any other park staffed with that many people for each scare attraction. It is just another example of how much care is put into his park. I will say though that I am very surprised about the audio. It seems like this park, of all places, would have music playing throughout. Regardless, I am quite impressed with Linnanmäki

one day you will go to powerpark,which is so underrated,its in the middle of nowhere,and its exicted my expections,wthc rides such as thunderbird and Junker which is better than karacho i will tell you that,and good staff and food.

Taiga seems a bit like a longer rmc raptor, in terms of the elements and tightness of the layout and aside from the launches. Looks fun!

There's something about this park that reminds me of BPB! I wish we had late openings here in the UK - I'd love to go to a park after a long day at work and see everything lit up. 😊

If you like launches your going to love the new Hagrid ride. Went on it recently and the front row motorbike is just mind blowing.
