TLDR

This theme park does not look abandoned enough…

What it's about

After being raised by his maternal grandparents, teenager Eric Dalaras decides to run away and return to his hometown Cabo Qwert to find answers about his parents’ disappearance, leading him to the abandoned amusement park Tierra Incógnita.

The take

Returning to your hometown can be an eerie thing, mostly because of the way plenty of things would feel familiar, but they’ve either stayed in stasis all these years, or they’ve changed so much. Tierra Incognita takes that eeriness and uses it to craft a mysterious vibe in the small town of Cabo Qwert, a town now best known in the series for its titular abandoned amusement park. It relies a tad bit on jump scares and family melodrama, and the theme park itself seems much more pristine than an abandoned park would look like, but Tierra Incognita would be an okay series for kids to enjoy.

What stands out

You would think that a cursed, abandoned theme park that hasn’t been open to the public for years would have more dust, rust, and overgrowth.
