Features
The game was noted for its imaginative use of colour and eye-pleasing novelties. Small cafés and sweet shops with bright and differently coloured frontage are found in abundance, lining the streets of the amusement park in colourful little rows. Beauty features, such as artificial waterfalls and exotic animals in zoo enclosures, also add to the colourful quality of the game. Palm trees and thatched beach huts are also found on almost every screen and perhaps indicate a tropical location of the park.
There is at least one part of the game which is based on a real amusement park: part of the Log Flume in this game is held up by a giant Gulliver statue, a reference to the similar statue which holds up part of the Monorail at Pleasure Beach Blackpool.

Famous quotes containing the word features:
“All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“However much we may differ in the choice of the measures which should guide the administration of the government, there can be but little doubt in the minds of those who are really friendly to the republican features of our system that one of its most important securities consists in the separation of the legislative and executive powers at the same time that each is acknowledged to be supreme, in the will of the people constitutionally expressed.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
