Roller Coaster Tycoon is a game that you build your own theme park.It might look boring, but once you start playing it,it's very fun and creative.This game's got lot's of cool rides like corkscrew rollercoaster,inverted coaster,swining ships and gravitrons and more.And there are lot of mild rides and shops like car rides,space rings,gift shops and pizzas.
This game is creative is because you can almost do what you want to do in this game.For example, you can make a vertical loop go through a vertical loop when you build a rollercoaster.
But there are also some problems.You have only two kinds of objectives in this and that is makeing guest come two your park and increasing park vaules.This might make the game boring but you have to accomplish these objectives in different park situations.Like you have lots trash in your park or something like that.
I give this game 5 stars because it,s very creative and with a little imagination you can build a park that even you are going to be suprised!
Awesome is all I can say!

This was the first simulation game I ever got, and it is certainly one of the best. It is easy to learn and control and even easier to get addicted. Unlike other simulation games, RC Tycoon is a game that allows you to freely design your park and rollercoasters without worrying about challenging scenarios (if you want a challenge from this game, I'd recommend the Loopy Landscapes expansion). But the lack of a "real" challenge doesn't hurt: who ever had a problem with a "worry-free" game, when it comes to building an awesome simulation. It might be old, and it might seem low compared to all the new sims, but I don't think that the RC Tycoon craze ending is anywhere in sight, and if you like simulations, this is the game to get (and can you possibly ignore the price...).
One of the Best Games

Roller Coaster Tycoon is one of the greatest games ever! There are just some things that are not good. It is hard to get the hang of it. But once you know what to do, it is fine. It is really easy for your park to get crowded too. But the different roller coasters are really cool! Overall, this is a really great game!
Great Game For Anyone You're Shopping For!

Roller Coaster Tycoon is the most fun I've had on this computer. It's not just for designing and building rollercoasters. You have to build bathrooms, food stands, kiddie rides, and everything else. I hate when I have to exit out of the game because it is "addictivly fun". I suggest this game to anyone!
Blows Sim Theme Park away!

This game is great, and extremely addictive! I bought it a few years ago when it first came out, and I have bought both expansion packs. But now I am devestated because I got a new computer that didn't it have it installed, and now I lost the original CD, so I can't install any of them. But if I don't find it, I am going to definitley buy a new one!
Wow!!!!!!!!!!

Every single PC game gets boring for a while,so I havent played Roller-tyc.for a while,but that doesnt mean its not fabulous.YOU are totally in charge of the carnival,you can even colour the rides yourself.It is a very good game and if you dont feel too guilty you can pick up people with a hook and throw them in the ocean and drown them.So funny.
Great Family Game -You'll get caught up!

My ten year old son received this game as a gift and loves it! With very little outside instruction from(parents)he was on his way to building fun and challenging amusement parks.It teaches many things including making & losing money.It also encourages taking care of what you own and that you can build something that works well if you try. I pass by and end up standinding behind him for 1/2 an hour. I can't wait to try myself. This is a great game if you want to avoid the dark magic or violent action ones that parents try to avoid.
Great Game

This is a great game! amazing graphics. if you like roller coasters or not this game will impress you. building your own roller coaster is a blast! But, you have to make sure your intensity and nausea ratings aren't too high, or they will not be popular. you will not regret buying this game. the exspansions are awesome too.
How fun!

In this game, you can build your own dream park with lots of rollar coaster, shops, merry-go-round, beautiful games, etc. You can design your own rollar coaster with any colour and can design your own park. Except this, you can also kill people in your park. You can build a non-finish rollar coaster and then start it, when the rollar-coaster-car reach there, it will throw away and 'BOMB', all the people in the car will die immediately! But this is a healthy game for children and kill people will diminish your park's rating so I don't think you should do that.
