LucasArts announces that Thrillville, its new video game where players experience all the fun of their very own theme park, is now available at stores throughout the United States. A major new initiative for LucasArts, the game was built from the ground up to appeal to a wide-ranging audience by promising a fun, accessible theme park experience for the entire family. Created and developed by LucasArts in conjunction with Frontier Developments, Thrillville is now open to owners of the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, PlayStation Portable and Xbox video game system from Microsoft.

In their effort to create an entirely new gaming experience, LucasArts and Frontier discarded established blueprints for games of this nature and started from scratch. The result: a nonstop party in a theme park that players create. Thrillville allows players to customize their own amusement-park creation, interact with guests like never before, and build and hop into their own roller coasters and other rides. Thrillville also lets players race on go-kart tracks they construct, play miniature golf on courses they design, and build roller coasters so high, fast and furious they couldn't exist in the real world. A multiplayer feature allows up to four friends or family members to play a plethora of mini-games, from bumper cars to arcade action. Rather than seeing the world from a bird's-eye view, in Thrillville players tour their creations on foot, chatting and joking with all of their guests to help them out and make sure they're enjoying themselves.
