Visitors Gone Wild
Steam Park: Robots includes two new types of "wild" Visitors: the V.I.R. Visitors and the Stingy Visitors.
Setup
At the beginning of the game, place the V.I.R. Visitors (gold) and the Stingy Visitors (grey) in the Visitors pool, together with the Visitors from the base game. But, when you put the initial Visitors into the bag during Step 7 of Setup, don't put any Wild Visitors in the bag.
When you draw a Wild Visitor out of the bag, you can place them on any Ride, regardless of its color, and they will stay there until the end of the game. There are also special rules for how to attract them and how they behave (see below).
Boring rules
Wild Visitors are considered to be their own color, not the color of the Ride they are placed in (so take this into account when you check the effect of some Bonus cards).
Note
Stingy Visitors are also included in the Steam Park: Play Dirty expansion. If you already have it, you can use the plastic miniatures included in this mini-expansion to replace the original wooden ones. If you do not have Play Dirty, no worries: just keep reading to know how they work! Did you think we were that greedy? Steam Park: Play Dirty contains other new, exciting rules, though: Espionage dice, new stands, new rides, and you can even play with up to 5 players! Doesn't it sound great? Ok, now that we are done with shameful advertising…
V.I.R. Visitors
V.I.R. Visitors are snobby elitists, they don't like to car pool with the mob. But they like to spend, and you like money, don't you? Yes, you do.
How to attract them: You can Attract V.I.R. Visitors into the bag only if you spend exactly one Visitors symbol when you perform the Attract Visitors action.
When you perform the Attract Visitors action by spending only 1 Visitors symbol, you may choose and take 1 regular Visitor AND one V.I.R. Visitor from the Visitors pool and put them both in the bag. If you do, when you draw Visitors to complete the action, you must draw out TWO Visitors instead of only ONE.
How they behave: Aside from the above, V.I.R. Visitors behave just like regular Visitors. During the Income phase, you gain 3 Danari for each V.I.R. Visitor you have in your park. During the Dirt phase, you receive 1 Dirt for each V.I.R. Visitor you have in your park.
Stingy Visitors
Unlike V.I.R. Visitors, Stingy Visitors are poor as church mice! However, they have a higher regard for their personal hygiene.
How to attract them: You can Attract Stingy Visitors into the bag only if at least one of the base colors is no longer available in the Visitors pool (they can still be present in the bag, though).
How they behave: During the Income Phase, each Stingy Visitor only pays you 2 Danari (instead of the normal 3 Danari per Visitor). However, during the Dirt Phase, you don't gain any Dirt for any Stingy Visitors you have in your park.
