An amusement park management sim for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation VR? It should be a match made in heaven – but Bimboosoft's in-development Rollercoaster Dreams definitely has a ways to go. The title – which is clearly targeting the Theme Park market – seems to have all of the pieces in place, but lacks the charm of Bullfrog's seminal PSone simulation.

The problem is that the artstyle's completely devoid of any personality, and the amusement parks themselves look barren. The developer has a history making these kinds of games, with both the Dreamcast's Coaster Works and the PlayStation 2's bargain bin Rollercoaster World in its back catalogue, so at least it has experience with the genre.

And this is promising optional virtual reality functionality, which should prove exciting when you trial your custom made rides. But it's going to need a lot of work to get it up to scratch, isn't it? The trailer looks like it's piggybacked a ride straight out of the late 90s – the character models are abhorrent to say the least. Polish it up and give it some personality, though, and we'll buy a ticket.
