We're running a second closed beta weekend for Captain Contraption's Safari Park, and we'd love to have some new faces in there.

If you haven't played before the idea is that you build a safari park with a fully simulated ecosystem. Clone bizarre species, design paths to guide guests through the attractions, and try to keep everything under control.

What's changed since the first beta

The build has had a significant overhaul based on feedback from the first test:

  • A new path-building mode — you now lay out looped routes for visitors to follow rather than placing waypoints. It sounds small but it makes the game feel quite different.

  • A reworked tutorial that does more than just explain the controls.

  • Much better UI clarity so you can actually see what's going on in your park.
