Water Park Game

Water Park Game is a water slide racer: you sit in an inner tube and ride down 8 twisting slides, seen from just behind your rider. Steer to stay in the channel, hit boosters, duck under low bars and scoop up rubber ducks, but take a curve too fast and you fly over the lip into the splash pool. You can play this water park game online free in your browser with no download, on a keyboard, a mouse or a phone’s touch screen.

How to play

The game opens on your park map. Tap or click a slide to ride it. Only the Lazy River is open at first, and finishing a slide opens the next one. After a 3, 2, 1 countdown the clock runs until you pass the finish arch.

• Steer: use the arrow keys or A and D, hold the left or right side of the slide with a mouse or finger, or use the Left and Right buttons under the game.
• Watch the curves: every bend pushes your tube up the outside wall, harder the faster you go. Steer toward the inside to stay in. Ride past the lip and you fly out into the splash pool.
• Splash pool: flying out does no harm. You restart at the last checkpoint (the green banners), but the clock keeps running.
• Low bars: red and white bars hang across some parts of the slide. Hold Down, S, Space or the Duck button to duck under them. Hit one sitting up and you lose most of your speed.
• Boosters and ducks: ride over a glowing green arrow pad for a burst of speed, and steer onto the yellow rubber ducks to collect them.

The 8 slides

The slides get longer and harder:

• Lazy River: a slow float with wide bends for learning the steering.
• Twister: left and right bends one after another.
• Black Hole: a dark enclosed tunnel. You can’t fly out inside the tube, but low bars come out of the dark.
• Speed Drop: steep drops and boosters, where even gentle bends push hard.
• Racing Mats: a wide, lane-marked slide where you race three rival riders to the bottom.
• Python Coil: long, tight spirals that keep pushing you toward the outside wall.
• Rapids Run: a mix of drops, bends, low bars and a short tunnel.
• Thunder Finale: the longest slide, mixing everything with another three-rider race.

Stars, best times and your park

Each slide awards up to 3 stars. You get one for finishing, one for beating the par time shown in the top corner, and one for collecting at least 80 percent of the ducks. On the two race slides, the time star is replaced by a star for finishing 1st. Your best time, ducks and stars per slide are saved in your browser.

Ducks also build your park. Your best duck counts add up to a park total, and at set totals new decorations appear on the map: a palm tree, a beach umbrella, a snack hut, a flamingo float, a wave pool, a lifeguard chair, a tipping bucket, a rainbow arch, a fountain and finally a duck statue. They’re for show only, and the map header shows how many ducks the next one needs.

Tips

• Steer early on curves. Lean toward the inside as the bend starts, not once you are high on the wall.
• Think before you boost. A booster just before a sharp curve can send you over the lip.
• Duck on the straights. Ducking cuts drag, so you go faster, but you steer only half as hard while you do it. Use it on straight drops. It is the main way to beat the race rivals.
• Outside ducks are a gamble. Ducks on the outside of a curve sit close to the lip, and a splash costs more time than a duck is worth.

FAQ

Is Water Park Game free?

Yes. It is free to play with no account and nothing to install. Tap the game or press Space to open the park map.

Does it work on phones and Chromebooks?

Yes. On a phone or tablet, hold either side of the slide or use the Left, Duck and Right buttons, and the page won’t scroll while you play. On a Chromebook or laptop, use the arrow keys or WASD.

Can I pause?

Press P or Esc, or use the Pause button. The game also pauses if you switch tabs. Press R to restart the current slide.

Can I lose a slide?

No. Flying out only sends you back to the last checkpoint, so every ride reaches the finish. Your time, ducks and race place decide the stars.
