How to level backyard for playground?

Hi guys again

Its been a tedious and expensive journey for our “dream house. From dodgy carpenters losing 40k on “materials order” and not showing up and disappearing- to finding hidden expensive flaws in our property.
We have finally reached the fun time for the garden and our kids to reap in the benefits of our anguish.

I purchased a lifespan swing set but wanted a level ground rather than a 20 deg slope, after finally getting rid of the AWTS and trying to level with topsoil i figured it would be an impossible exercise without some sort of retaining solution

using the colorbond fence as a guide for the degree of slope, what suggestions would say is suitable for making our kids dream a reality?

options are:

1) level as is and put on top

2) sleepers around and level and recycled rubber or turf

If there are more suitable options or more practical solutions please advise.

Kind of a Big Deal
