So there I was, playing Xbox, browsing through the games store, when in my recommended feed comes a game called "Disneyland Adventures" It's free for game pass subscribers and I wasn't in an entirely sober state of mind at the time, so I figure heck. Why not, I'll download it. Turns out, it's pretty great.
It's a kiddy game. full of mini games and puzzles that I have zero interest in. What's really fascinating is that the game world is the Disneyland park, and it's a very literal interpretation. It's been recreated in painstaking detail. Every popcorn cart, planter, tree, even abandoned people mover track is right where it should be. The sound is also spot on as well, with real park audio. So it's pretty cool to be able to virtually wander around the park when I can't in person. What's really interesting though is that this is the park of when the game was in development in 2011. Big thunder ranch is still there for you to wander around in. The old rivers of America is intact. But oddly enough, when at the entrance of the park staring towards DCA, it's the opening version of it, complete with the giant CALIFORNIA letters in the esplanade.
Anyway, I had a good time exploring the park in this game and was genuinly impressed at the detail they put into it. If you have Xbox Game Pass you should pick it up for free.
