Not watched this yet but definitely need to, Defunctland's almost always a great use of time.

So I'm only like halfway through this video, but the more I hear about these parks, the less fun they sound. Dramatically less fun. What kid is sitting around and saying "you know what I want to do today? Simulate the dreary experience of paying taxes and putting your life back together after a terrorist attack!"?

the concept sounds cute at first, but gets kinda horrifying when you dig deeper into things, as the video does here.

The section on crime gets even more wild than I'd have anticipated.

It was funny watching it wonder "Hey, wonder if they'll mention KidZania London in this?" and it turned out, the people who were running the first park rebranded into KidZania.
Can't believe the thing only closed this year.

The section on crime gets even more wild than I'd have anticipated. there are so many weird bits about this. Like one of teh shots had kids walking with a mail cart... who goes there and says "I want to be an office drone!" Then there was the EMT part and they would pick up other children with issues... meaning someone was like "I want to be the heart attack victim."
