Well of course it will be cheaper to operate a tropical resort in Florida than it is in northern Germany.
Also, if they didn’t tell you they charge extra for each ride (and there were no signs informing you) then you probably needn’t have paid. This would be fraud under german law.
However as the operators know this, I’m quite sure there were signs that you overlooked.

I went there this past weekend. It’s very expensive don’t let the admission fool you. They give you a bracelet and in their broken english tell you, “This is how you get onto the rides… yea?” What they don’t tell you is they charge you everytime you go through a gate to get to the ride and have you to pay as you leave.

It all adds up very fast. The next thing you know you are paying 60+ euros, which is about 85$, for a waterpark.

As a visitor from Florida I see it as outrageously expensive. Considering I can enjoy a full day of unlimited rides at Wet N’ Wild, with a given soda can, for 20$. And for an extra 13 I can purchase a year long pass allowing me to return whenever I want for free.
