The text "FRONTIER" becomes solidified and white and all of wireframes disappear.
Variants:
- On many games, the logo is still.
- On Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, the logo is already formed. Then Wallace appears on a chair being pulled by a string. Gromit (unseen) then pastes an "Anti-Pesto" sign over the globe, and then Wallace and the "FRONTIER" text all fall off.
- On RollerCoaster Tycoon 3, the logo is on a white background, then a coaster rolls over the globe with cheering peeps.
- On Thrillville and Thrillville: Off the Rails, a homemade coaster rolls down a loop the loop near the globe. It wobbles and a wooden person falls off as the coaster makes it through the loop. The person falls back into the coaster car.
- On Planet Coaster, the logo is on a blue background with the "FRONTIER" text in white. King Coaster (the main mascot of Planet Coaster) runs in from a distance from the left kicking the globe from behind, which later makes way to the title screen of the game.
FX/SFX: Nice CGI animation.
Music/Sounds: The normal variant uses loud whirring and synth sounds.
