Pros: Educational, thought provoking Cons: They hate going to bed.....
Roller Coaster Tycoon has provided hours and hours of "Constructive" computer time for our 9 yr. old and 12 year old Girls. There are not a lot of computer games out there that GIRLS can get thoroughly involved in that do not involve killing,...

Pros: Lots of options, hours and hours and hours of fun! Cons: You'll feel guilty for all the time you spend building parks!
How do you know when your RollerCoaster Tycoon obsession has gone too far? I had an inkling when I started dreaming about how to make better, more exciting rides.

Pros: Everything Cons: None
I received this game for my birthday from my brother and his girlfriend. I am now officially addicted to it! This game, which concept is very similar to the Sim City games, is very entertaining. The point of the game is to build a great theme park...

Pros: Just the most addictive sim I've ever played Cons: Game tends to freeze at times. No clue why...
I loved RCT from the day I installed it. It was so great. The graphics were smooth and the actual point of the game was great.
In RCT, you are in charge of making a Theme park. You have limited time and limited money, but you have to pull...

Pros: addictive, fun Cons: not always realistic
Roller Coaster is about as addictive a video game I have played in a long time. Normally, because of school work and other social obligations, it is rare that I ever have time to play a computer game, much less play one as much as I play RollerCoaster...

Pros: You get to make roller coasters Cons: Once you figure out how to make a successful park it's really hard to lose
Normally I wouldn't even think about playing a game so appropriate for younger audiences. I felt so emasculated with checking RollerCoaster Tycoon at the store that I picked up Kingpin just to redeem my sense of machismo. The reason that I had to buy...

Pros: Great for kids. Lots of attention to detail. Cons: Not for the hardcore gamer.
This game, at first, seems simplistic and relatively easy. You'll find, though, that the further you go, the more scenarios you open, the more challenging the game gets. Certainly its not for those gamers who want to destroy vast regions of the...
