It takes money to make money, right? We will put that to the test by seeing if we can still beat the game if we start every scenario with no money at all.

    So ehhh, one of the four "impossible" scenarios has been solved by Banananana on my Discord server. Guests do need a path piece to go on a ride, but a ghost piece (a path piece that you're about to build but haven't yet) works for that too. So in Crazy Craters you can get some guests in the park, remove all the path, build a maze, and put a ghost piece in front of it to allow the guests to ride it. You need just two guests to get enough cash to build the path piece for real, after which you're in the same situation as Icicle Worlds. In Octagon Park and Pleasure Island you can research the maze, but by the time you get it the loan interest will have made you broke, so this strategy doesn't work there. And obviously for Micropark it doesn't work either. ------------------------- I guess my mind saw the abstract scenery pieces in Icarus Park as trees when I wrote this video, but of course you can remove those for money and get over €2000 to build whatever you want, putting it in the "plenty of scenery & path" category.

    I still remember a SpiffingBrit video where he tried to beat the game "starting with £0", and his amazing strategy was just taking out a loan, i.e. playing the game completely normally 😂 Nice to see it done properly!
  • @vulcan6460
    I love how Marcel still has all those saved designs from that one inescapable maze experiment
  • @MrDawn
    15:40 killed me, a single track piece in front of the entrance to keep guests entertained. And it works!
  • @SemiHypercube
    the one tile hedge maze truly is the most powerful ride in the game
  • @cho4d
    50% off advert, with you doubling the list price as they walk up, feels extremely authentic to the modern capitalist experience.

    The waiting has started for the "You proved me wrong xxx is not impossible with €0,-"
  • @fathertimejr
    Man, guests won't ride a dang ol' $20 untested boat hire in RCT1. So... gonna take you 4x as long to get going in Crater Lake.
  • @stocks_9750
    Prepare yourself, within a month we will see a video "I WAS WRONG AGAIN" and Marcel will show how the community beat the 4 scenarios marked impossible by Marcel Never say impossible Marcel !! Learn from the past 😂
  • @SapphireCrook
    I remember the fake 'cheat' that if you close your park and wait like, X years or something, some dude shows up and gave you a buncha money. Ah, the old days of fake cheats. Some of them even ended up in guidebooks. Physical, paper guide books.
  • @ShayyTV
    Chris Sawyer deciding to allow the maze to be one tile might be the most impactful "tiny" decision in the whole game's development
  • @Deurklink
    Shout out to the sellable cave man
  • @just--harry
    Honestly as someone with adhd who never has consistency with what they do, channels like yours are such a comfort, how do you stay so focused on rct2 for so long 😭
  • I can't wait for the die-hard RTC players to see this video and SOMEHOW find a way to beat those 4 "impossible" scenarios...
  • @1vite
    15:52 i love how you named micro park the "micro fart". sneaky.
  • @Jerorawr_XD
    The poor caveman went on to start a career of criticizing Marcel's strategies on Reddit 💀
  • @dougowner
    Marcel in a couple of weeks: "I was wrong! You can beat these 4 impossible ones" and proceed to blow our minds within 5 minutes.
