"Mr. Six isn't around but Six Flags Entertainment launched a new social Facebook game called Mascot Park today. The theme park company is known for doing contests and giveaways from its Twitter account but this is its first Facebook venture courtesy of casual game developers, Making Fun."
Last month theme park giant Six Flags announced that it was riding onto Facebook with Six Flags Mascot Park, a game where players can create colorful mascots and make them dance and perform. The game is being developed through a collaboration between noise and Making Fun, whose co-founder is none other than casual gaming veteran and former PlayFirst CEO John Welch. Gamezebo chatted with Welch about Six Flags Mascot Park and what it's like going from Diner Dash to social games.
Last month, Six Flags announced it would be expanding its brand into the realm of Facebook games with Six Flags Mascot Park. The game is set to launch on June 28, and IGN got a sneak peek at the game today.
Pimp mayor? Gold tooth hip-hop rhino? Sounds like another day at a Six Flags park.
This is so silly... I really don't think it'll help market Six Flags much, but good for them for trying, I guess.
Yeah, it may appeal to the people who like to dress up characters and play mini-games but the whole thing is kind of meh yet facepalm at the same time.
