Introduction:

Welcome to RollerCoaster Dreams! This is a park simulator that is VR optional. It's preferable to go for the trophies without VR to make things a bit easier, but the choice is yours. It's not the greatest of games, but it's not the absolute worst either. Some of the mini-games may put your skills to the test, but overall, it's a fairly simple platinum.

NOTE: If you are playing this game on PS5, make sure you use a DualShock 4 controller. The Go-Karts and Bumper Cars use motion to move, and the DualSense doesn't work.

Walkthrough:

STEP ONE: Play through all of the individual mini-games in Sandbox Mode.
Don't worry about how you create the park, just put down the buildings below, hit start, and go into Free Walking Mode. Don't forget to put down a ticket booth so you can purchase tickets to play the mini-games! I recommend starting on Very Easy, then Easy, then Normal for each Mini-Game.

STEP THREE: Create a Park
This should be your final trophy on your way to the platinum. Head into Park Management - it's time to create your own amusement park! The goal is to get 500,000 visitors in one year. This will take several years to get up to that amount, so don't worry too much. You'll spend a lot of this time waiting. Finish this step and the platinum is yours!

Awesome Amusement Park

Over 500,000 annual visitors in Park Management
This is the most time-consuming trophy of the list. Enter Park Management and take on the role of creator as you build your amusement park from scratch. The goal is to get over 500,000 annual visitors to your park. This will not happen in your first few years as you need to build up your park to get that many visitors.

TIPS:
- Play on Very Easy. Don't make it harder on yourself. You get a nice monthly bonus on this difficulty.
- Start small. You have $8,000,000 to start with but don't blow it all on one coaster. Make sure you place ticket counters, benches, tables, and plants to appease your customers.
- Keep ticket prices low. I know this sounds weird, but I made more money with the entrace fee as 1G than I did bumping it up. Remember, the goal is the number of visitors, not the amount of money you make.
- Invest in Ride Development and Advertising. The more rides and advertisements, the more visitors. As you make money, invest more in this categories
In Very Easy, you shouldn't run out of money, so most of your time will be sitting there waiting for new rides to be developed. I always placed at least 2 of each ride to accomodate more guests.

By Year 2, I was around 100,000 annual visitors. Keep investing in development and advertising as your funds increase to increase your visitors, and you should get this by year 5. If not, just keep going. Overall, not difficult, just time-consuming.

Rollercoaster Dreams Challenge Level 6
Master Of Arranging The Tiles (Normal)

Clear Vertical Explosion within 3 minutes 30 seconds (Normal)
(2)
This game is located in the Game Center - The goal is to create horizontal lines of each color without creating a vertical line of 3 of the same color. It took me a while to get the hang of this game, but once you do, it's easy.

You move the curser with the D-Pad, hold and D-Pad to move lines up/down or left right.

First, create a horizontal line at the top of the same color. Try to use whatever color has the most blocks in the top row. Just move a color horizontally under the spot you need, then shift the column up to line up the colors. Do this until the top row is all the same color, now referred to as Color #1.

Next, time do the next row down. Pick a color, any color, but again, I chose one that already had the most spots already filled. Find a color below the row you're working on and move it one spot to the left or right of where it needs to go. Then, shift the column where it needs to go down until the top column color is one row above color #2. Then shift color #2 left/right under Colo r#1, then shift that column back up until Color #1 is back on the top row, and Color #2 should now be on the next row down.

Repeat these for each row until you have each row the same color. The time limit is quite generous once you've gotten the hang of it.

Watch this video for a better understanding:
Master Of Arranging The Tiles (Easy)

Clear Vertical Explosion within 1 minute 10 seconds (Easy)
See Master Of Arranging The Tiles (Normal) for an explanation. This time, you must complete it on Easy. The time is shorter, but less rows to complete.
Master Of Arranging The Tiles (Very Easy)

Clear Vertical Explosion within 30 seconds (Very Easy)
(1)
See Master Of Arranging The Tiles (Normal) for an explanation. This time, you must complete it on Very Easy. The time is shorter, but less rows to complete.
I'm Not Afraid Of Ghosts (Normal)

Clear level 3 of Haunted House (Normal)
This mini-game can be found inside the Haunted House. It's just a haunted house maze with ghosts. Your screen will start turning red if a ghost catches you, but you can keep going and outrun them.

The goal is to find the white door on each level. Don't worry if you get caught, you just restart the current level.

You only have to finish 3 levels on normal, but there are more ghosts than on easier levels and you die faster.
I'm Not Afraid Of Ghosts (Easy)

Clear level 4 of Haunted House (Easy)
Same as I'm Not Afraid Of Ghosts (Normal) , but you have to clear through level 4 on Easy.
I'm Not Afraid Of Ghosts (Very Easy)

Clear level 6 of Haunted House (Very Easy)
Same as I'm Not Afraid Of Ghosts (Normal) , but you have to clear through level 6 on Very Easy.
I'm Not Afraid Of Zombies (Normal)

Survive 2 minutes in Zombie Mansion (Normal)
This mini-game is located in the Zombie Mansion. The goal sounds simple: Survive a set amount of time on a zombie dance floor without being caught. By far, the worst mini-game.

2 minutes will feel like 2 hours on this mini-game. There are only certain zombies that will chase you down. The others tend to just dance around in one place. The outside of the floor is red and will kill you, and there are no "safe" spaces. Similar to the Ghost Maze, the zombies won't kill you automatically, but your screen will start to go red and you will begin to lean. You die faster on normal, and there are more zombies on the dance floor.

My tactic was to run to a corner where I couldn't be blind-sided and stand there as long as I could. When a zombie got close, I ran to another corner, rinse and repeat.

There's a bit of luck involved with the placement of the zombies. I got lucky and one half of my dance floor was pretty clear, so I was able to stand in a corner for over one minute before a chasing zombie got close.
I'm Not Afraid Of Zombies (Easy)

Survive 4 minutes in Zombie Mansion (Easy)
(1)
See I'm Not Afraid Of Zombies (Normal) for a description. Same tactics apply, but less zombies and you have to survive 4 minutes on Easy. Try not to die of sheer boredeom.
I'm Not Afraid Of Zombies (Very Easy)

Survive 4 minutes in Zombie Mansion (Very Easy)
See I'm Not Afraid Of Zombies (Normal) for a description. Same tactics apply, but less zombies and you have to survive 4 minutes on Very Easy. Again, try not to die of sheer boredeom.
Master Of Escape (Normal)

Escape from the Maze within 50 seconds (Normal)
This mini-game is found within the Pyramid. This, by far, was the toughest one for me. You only have 50 seconds to escape a rather large maze with tons of dead ends. It's randomly generated each time, so it's sheer luck. You will have to try, and try, and try, and try over and over until you get lucky enough to find the exit within 50 seconds.

There's no real strategy here. I turned my turn speed up near max so I could turn around faster if I ran into a dead end. Just keep pushing towards the outside of the maze and pray you make it.
Master Of Escape (Easy)

Escape from the Maze within 40 seconds (Easy)
See Master Of Escape (Normal) for a description. A bit easier but you only have 40 seconds on Easy.
Master Of Escape (Very Easy)

Escape from the Maze within 20 seconds (Very Easy)
See Master Of Escape (Normal) for a description. A lot easier but you only have 20 seconds on Very Easy. Just run like there's no tomorrow!

Run 3 laps within 1 minute 30 seconds in Go Kart (Driver Camera / Normal)
This mini-game can be find on the Go-Karts. Make sure you choose Driver Camera. You must complete 3 laps within the time limit without crashing. This does use the motion sensors on the DualShock 4, so make sure you're using that controller even on PS5.

is gas, is brake. Easy enough, just make sure you use the brake on this difficulty on the hairpin turns and you'll beat it with plenty of time to spare.
Prince Of Sonic Speed (Driver Camera / Easy)

Run 3 laps within 2 minutes 30 seconds in Go Kart (Driver Camera / Easy)
See Prince Of Sonic Speed (Driver Camera / Normal) for description. Select Easy, and complete 3 laps in 2 minutes 30 seconds. Much easier, and you barely need to use the brake at all.

Score more than 150,000 points in Bumper Car (Normal)

The goal is to bump into other cars; the faster you go, the more points you get. Get hit, lose points. You have 2 minutes to score 150,000 points on normal.

Just aim for large groups of cars and go crazy. Always hold down for Thrust and you'll rarely lose points.

Time's a bit tight, so stay busy and hit hard.
Master Of Thrusting Away (Easy)

Score more than 90,000 points in Bumper Car (Easy)
See Master Of Thrusting Away (Normal) for trophy description. Just get 90,000 points on Easy and the trophy is yours. Your car is a bit slower, so you get less points for hits.

Your ship will heal if you go for some time without more hits, so don't be afraid if your screen starts turning red.

See I Am An Astronaut (Normal) for trophy description. You must complete the course in 3 minutes 20 seconds on Very Easy. You can take more hits before a game over screen, so don't be afraid to just keep held down the whole time.
Master Of Dodging Stones (Normal)

Run the course over 1,200,000 faltosgigarons in Asteroid Rally 2 (Normal)
This mini-game can be found in Asteroid Rally 2. Similar to Asteroid Rally, the goal is to fly down a tunnel while dodging asteroids. The biggest difference is this time you have no control over the speed. Your ship will go faster and faster, so it's all about dodging asteroids.

Your guns automatically fire. Hit or to change between long range guns and wide guns. Hit to upgrade your equipped weapon, to add shields, or to buy a bomb. Hit to shoot your bomb.

You must earn 200,000 points on Normal for this trophy.

My tactic was to get my long range guns to level 10 as quick as possible. Use every upgrade you get on your guns. If you're taking some hits, don't be afraid to buy some shields, but keep upgrading those guns. At level 10, they fire very fast and make the game much easier. Once you've got your long range guns maxed, just add shields and the occasional bomb.
