Tenpenny Parks

Tenpenny Parks is a worker placement and tile-laying game where players build their own theme park over five rounds, aiming to attract the most visitors.

Each round, you place a limited number of workers to take key actions like buying attractions, adding concessions, clearing land, or earning money. The game is tight on actions, so every decision matters—you won’t be able to do everything you want.

When adding attractions to your park, there’s a twist: tiles cannot touch each other directly, creating a unique spatial puzzle that forces careful planning.

You’ll also progress along Thrill, Awe, and Joy tracks, which provide bonuses and influence your overall scoring. Managing these tracks, along with your money and park layout, is key to success.

What We Think at WiredVillage Boardgames

We haven’t played this one yet, but it looks like a really tight and interesting game. The limited worker placement combined with the tile-laying puzzle seems like it would create some great decision-making each round.
