Video Game Reviews of Roller Coaster Tycoon

Customer Review: Ok
Summary: 3 Stars

YOu can waste your money on this game or spen a few extra dollars on the second one. The second one has more rides and is easier to control.

Customer Review: Really good!
Summary: 4 Stars

I can't say five stars, but the game is excellent. Yes, the 2-D Limited graphics are dated and primitive. The tree-removal is costly and boring. That aside, the game is fun and fairly easy. I was doing pretty well after a few weeks of attempts at the first scenario.

A flaw is that their are only a few ride choices in Thrill Rides and they are generally underrated for intensity. The Pirate Ship is probably a High Intensity.

Another flaw is the lack of more realistic rides, like a Giant Slide, or Funhouse --- things you see at the carnival. Also, the rollercoasters are primative. For some reason, the already-built ones in some of the parks are super intense yet say "High Excitment, Very High Intensity, Medium Nausea" than if you duplicate it, you get Low, ULTRA EXTREME, Very High" for the same thing! I'd call it cheating.

But the game is so excellent I can't be mean to it. The ease is incredibly, the scenarios actually achievable (but from here to the expansions and on they become totally impossible) and the pace relaxed.

I do think a park year should be Jan-Dec so you can have Holiday things. Oops! They don't have holiday rides/themes/shows -- flaw.


Customer Review: Classic simulation fun
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this game years ago and never finished it until returning recently to it. It's a lot of fun, especially if you love roller coasters and amusement parks. Given various parks of different sizes and obstacles, you are assigned various missions, mostly with the same main objectives. Build a park which has x number of guests, and make sure the guests like it. You can design your own roller coasters, although they have a few samplers to get you started. The game designers have thought of amazing details, including handymen, restrooms, food, nausea, repairs, scenery, and advertising. A great clean game that's really fun to play. Also try the expansion packs.
