    The great aquatic disaster
    Disaster / Destruction

    Starting with ¨Kevin Conroy Presents: Water World: the Wet Park¨ a string of failed water parks opened and subsequently closed in Kepler. In a bid for more tourists city hall offered generous boons to people who would open other attractions in Kepler. Starting with ¨Kevin Conroy Presents: Water World: the Wet Park¨ many water parks jumped on that offer. In order of construction they are ¨Aqua Land: the Land of Water¨, ¨Swim Swim Swim¨, ¨Splash Splosh Splish¨, ¨Jaws the water park¨. The only one remaining is ¨H2Whoa That Was Fun: Water Park and Drive In theater¨. Although this is most likely due to the second part of its name as its highest recorded capacity was at 57%.
