The Soaked expansion adds loads of new features to RCT3, including the ability to add water parks, waterfalls, lazer and water shows. There's also many new rides and coasters.

Paticuarly cool is watching the peeps play in teh swimming pools :-)

Anyone who does encounter a problem should visit the Atari forums, the developers are known to hang out there and there's lot of frindly fans to meet.

I would say this is a pretty good expansion pak; it adds new elements to the theme park and some of the additions gives a theme park countless possibilites. This expansion gets a 5- star fun factor for its creativity and effort. But overall, I will just give it a 4 star because it still has glitches and many has experienced lagging. But when compared to the RCT2's expanisons (time twister and wacky worlds), this one is a winner by far. Just a reminder, there's another expanison coming out in October call Wild!

This screwed up our computer

This game would be cool... if it ran. i got the game and was all happy loaded it and the thing wouldnt run. i called tech support and the person told me to download a new driver for our graphic card. i did this and installed it on our computer. when this didnt work we tried to uninstall rctycoon 3 soaked and instead it uninstalled rctycoon 3 and i still have the soaked thing that doesnt work on my computer. so DONT GET THIS GAME UNLESS U WANT TO SPEND COUNTLESS HOURS WITH THE VERY BAD TECH SUPPORT. now i am rctycoonless and i have 30 dollars less in mmy wallet

Great but i think it could have been better

I really enjoyed R.T.3 but this expansion pack is very hard to master and has a few bugs of its own. It takes forever to actually make a water fall work and is very frustrating.
You have the ability to build rides through terrain now but this to is virtually impossible to accomplish. And often the rides won't function. I receive constant pop-ups saying the ride stations are not long enough for the ride cars, even though you can see the cars sitting in the station. Terrain is a major problem as que lines no longer line up with the ground, forcing you to spend alot of time trying to adjust the surrounding land to the proper height.
This expansion pack, if anything, is very frustrating, much more so than the original problems with RT3.
In the first 2 version of this game it was very easy to build through mountains and underground, those days are long gone here. Unless you have hours to spend mastering this new stuff, you may want to think twice before you add this pack.

This could've been an awesome expansion, but the bugs hold it back. When you zoom out it slows way down, the screen messes up, freezes, etc. You have to restart your computer. This one bug makes the game unplayable. There are minor bugs expressed in other reviews. It is incredibly frustrating. A side note: when you create your own scenarios and you're selecting what you want to have available in your park and what won't be available in your park, wouldn't it be nice to be able to select more than one thing at a time? Overall three stars. But if it worked, five all the way.

I allready have RT3..I been addicted to it..than this water park comes out...It took me a bit to kinda figure it out even with the directions. To connect the slide to the pool u gotta tweak the slide..so that means a little construction after u make the pool. Sometimes u gotta make the end tilt up a little bit. As soon as it is conntected and u drag the stairs straight up to connect it you can add extra's to the pool, like a life guard or diving boards, or even a wave runner. U just have to make sure u put down an extra path. To open the pool u gotta make an entrance and from the entrance u can control the wave runner the cycle of cleaning of the pool, from low, med or high cleaning. It is a lot of fun.
I highly recommend this to anyone!

RCT3 Soaked is the first expansion pack to be realeased and it solves some problems that have occured in the orginal RCT3. There are loads of new features and they all are very fun. Some of the things that are addressed are the tunnels. Like in the first and second edition, you can build tunnels right through walls. Also instead of having to click on a single person to view their opinions. There is a new button to group them all together like in the orginal RCT. This makes it easier to plan what you need to do to fix problems. The new feature gives you a concensus on peoples opinions. Also the mixmaster has been improved greatly. Now you can add water shows and lazer lights to it too. But the real improvement is the preview screen where you still select it, it will show you a preview of what it looks like. This feature is great since in RCT3 orginal. You had to put the fireworks in the schedule and then preview what it was by playing the whole fireworks segment. This makes it a lot easier to put fireworks together.

The new features in soaked are very good like you can build a water park altogether or add it with our original park so you can have a water park within a theme park. There are slides, flumes, and a river pool or lazy pools. Also a killer shark and dolphin show are here. It's like RCT 3 meets Sea World. There is also a neat shuttle hop on hop off transit shuttle. It looks like Universal Studios Backlot tour vehicles. They can be used as shuttles but you can place ride events like erupting volocano and make a ride out of it. It really makes it seem like the Backlot tour at Universal Studios. Many features plus a couple of new carnival type attractions and beach stores like sunscreen store keep this expansion pack fresh until the next expansion pack in Sept/Oct.

Of course, there is still room for more rides and attractions not yet released in this expansion pack, they are most likely saving those for the next expansion pack.

Great buy of any RCT 3 fan.

Cannot wait for WILD!!!

This game is great, I have had so much fun designing the water themed parks, I cannot wait for the WILD expansion to get here.

This program is also good for exploring the Physics of rollercoaster designs also. So any budding designer might be able to create rides for Disney, Busch, or Six Flags et al...
