Pros: Creative freedom, flexible, loads of designs
Cons: No time acceleration, some poor AI
It is certainly refreshing to know that a game can be creative, constructive, educational, non-violent, and so much good fun all at once. Microprose / Hasbro Interactive has really rolled a lot into this game. They even consulted with Chris Sawyer, a...

Pros: A really fun game that will keep you occupied, especally on a rainy day.
Cons: Learning what the icons mean.
The Game that has matched the popularity of the classic Sim adventures has arrived. Roller Coaster Tycoon lets you build your own theme park in the middle of a forest or in a desert. You also can add on to already successful parks designed by the...

Pros: Tycoon management, rollercoaster design, addictiveness
Cons: Lousy unit AI, saved design only usable on flat land, no 3D coaster ride
At its heart, Rollercoaster Tycoon is a RTS, or "real-time strategy" game, in the same league of Command & Conquer, or Starcraft. However, this is a non-violent game, no combat, almost no death (we'll get into that later), and your...

Pros: Very Solid Simulation!
Cons: Could be touched though in some areas..
This game in my opinion is a very good simulation which has it's high point and it also does have its downfalls.
While this game may keep you entertained for a good long while, once you have a achieved the park that you wanted then there isn't...

Pros: More than just a fun game, it's educational too
Cons: Very, very addicting
This game is not just a game, it's also a great secret educational device that kids also will love. If you look beyond the cool rides, scenery, and music you will see a game that will also teach your child the value of money and how the business world...

Pros: Overall a great game
Cons: Not the best though
I was told by a friend that Roller Coaster Tycoon was one of the most addicting games on the market. Wow, was he ever right. After installing the game, I played it for eight hours straight. I know you guys don't know me, but I do have a short...

Pros: lots of options, looks like a real park
Cons: complicated when custom making coasters
The commercials on TV had me hooked. Build my own amusement park? Oh yeah.
Roller Coaster Tycoon starts you off with a large chunk of land, and from there you can build your own rides, or use the ones that come pre-loaded. It's up to you to...

Pros: Great game about money
Cons: Sometimes to realistic
Roller Coaster Tycoon is a really cool game for all ages. This game is so realistic that you actually feel like you are making your own theme park.
When you first get your park it is covered with trees just like a real theme park today would start...

I found this game by accident. I was reading a review one night, and decided to download the demo. Well, it was love at first play!
The day after Thanksgiving, I stood in line waiting to get into Best Buy to purchase a VCR for our 11 year...

Pros: Park wide simulation, "Sky's the limit" creation
Cons: Game requires lots of time to finish a scenario
Pro:
Whatever Chris Sawyer, the 'brains' behind RollerCoaster Tycoon, designs I will buy. His past work with Transport Tycoon and Transport Tycoon Deluxe was outstanding and RollerCoaster was beyond all my expectations for a Amusement park...

Pros: Great control, customizable, rides, pretty much everything is great.
Cons: Can get boring on the long levels
RollerCoaster Tycoon is a very good game because it is very easy and you can build almost anything you would see in a normal theme park. There are many different levels, and each one takes time, because you have to build a theme park and have it do well...
