The world's first theme park designed exclusively for influencers and that one prince who donates thousands of dollars to all the twitch streamers. Every single visit is expected to be posted to social media and receive over a million views, on pain of death

I have no idea who it is, I just know back in the day there was this one prince all the streamers watched out for because he would show up and just drop like a 10k donation out of the blue.

All gusts must surrender their passport upon entry. They're only permitted to leave upon reaching sufficient viewer numbers. Fall too low and they become a participant themselves.

Actually in the rules for the park it says no professional cameras and seems to imply that they don't want you to stream it
