Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Roller Great Coaster Wonderful Tycoon Perfect
Review: This game is great.There are 22 scenarioes for you to proceed through and you get an ultimate surprise if you win all 22 challenges.Building Roller Coasters can be a hit.But don't build them too intense or people will jump, or otherwise vomit. (yes, I said vomit, but it's not that bad)This coaster game has it's props and cons.
Props
-lots of rides
-realistic
-good game

cons
-it should be if the ride is boring people won't ride it, instead of if the rides too intense latter won't ride it.
-little parks
-too hard

Overall, GREAT!

Summary: RCT is killer.
Review: Who doesn't get a kick out of seeing a roller coaster explode into space after twicking with the speed?!! ;) I enjoy this game immensely and would highly recommend it and the addons, as well. Although some scenerios are tough, patience plays an immense factor.

Some of the peeves I have are: money and stupid AI. First, money. Hard to come by and quickly spent before you realize it. Second, the AI is awful. Maintainence men that do [nothing], even if you twick them to do the things you want them to.

Great game and a great way to get irked, mad and want to drown all of the stupid AI's in the game!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Oh, nothing...only THE COOLEST GAME EVER!
Review: I remember way back when I was 9 or 10 years old, playing this game until the point where I wouldn't need to press the button to change my disk. This game is a totally fun, addicting game that will have you playing with your eyes glued to the computer screen for hours instead of doing your math homework! This game: is TOTALLY worth your money.
Here are some of the types of rides:

Water Rides
Roller Coasters (wooden or steel)
Thrill Rides
Calm Rides
(Not only are there rides, but stalls for bathrooms and food+drinks too. There are also additions like trees, fountains and flowers to add to the scenery)

Of course, the object to this game is to beat the objectives, which are set up in the game, and if you defeat them, you get some more scenarios, until you achieved them all, and finish the game! To do this, you must obtain a certain amount of guests, get a good rating for your park, within a couple of years (don't worry; this isn't really 2 years, a year goes by if you're playing it steadily), and you get another scenario! You can also receive trophies for good scenery, good roller coasters, ect. and loan money when you run out of it.
Here are the ratings I have for the CD's content:

Originality-A+
Roller Coasters, new scenarios? At least it's not the normal plot where you have to run all over the place and save the Princess/King/Easterbunny!

Graphics-A
Nice, and well-fitted together, but doesn't seem too realistic. How can you 'stop' the ride to work on it and the guests suddenly disappear off of it? But, that's OK, that makes it interesting!

Sound-B+
Sound doesn't matter much on this game. All you really hear is guests laughing, and having a good time! You also can hear the music on the merry-go-'round, and roller coasters swinging around on their tracks.

Entertainment-A+
Can you say 'addictive'? You'll be playing this game for hours! Buy it, you won't be disappointed!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Way too Addictive!!
Review: Rollercoaster Tycoon takes in the path of all simulation games but adds more to it. First of all this game is highly addictive. I played for 5 hours straight without noticing the time. Next, It is hard to beat some levels but, that shouldn't be a problem. Last, I reccomend the 2nd one more than this. Thanks for reading!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I play hours on end.....
Review: This is one of my favorite games. I enjoy the realistic features. The rides/stalls, such as:

Food Stalls
Roller Coasters (of course!)
Merry Go Rounds
Ferris Wheels
Ballon Stalls
Information Booths (that sell umbrellas and maps)
Water Rides

Just to name a few.

You get different weather as the year goes on, and the umbrellas make lots of money when it rains. Rain is a little bit of a downside, because then people don't want to go on certain rides when it rains.

Also you have 4 kinds of workers:
Handymen-who clean up when people throw up (yes, people throw up after going on intense rides), clean up litter, water flower beds, empty trash cans, and mow grass.
Mechanics-who fix rides (rides do break down),and inspect rides to make sure they don't break down or explode because that is dangerous to guests, who die if your rides explode.
Security guards-who watch for vandalizim
Entertainers-who make your guests want to stay and keep them happy. They can be panda bears, tigers, or elephants.

Also, my younger sister's teacher kept this game in their class room at school, because it taught them how to spend money on important things, loans, etc.

It's a wonderful game and if I could have a SimsCity game or this game I would choose this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: RollerCoaster Tycoon
Review: This game is awesome! It's so fun to create different parks. It really sparks your imagination! It also teaches skills on keeping a budget and not spending too much money at once. I would recommend it to kids 8 and older.

Summary: Oh my God!!![.]
Review: This is such a great game. I am totaly addicted. You can play the scerinios that are great also you can just start your own theme park. There are lots of different rides, shops, scenery, and roller coasters. It is a wonderfulllll[!!] game.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Get this Game!
Review: This is a great computer game. It is not the best game i have played but it is way better than some of the other tycoons like mall tycoon or fast food tycoon. You get a lot of different rides to choose from, and you can get food places too. You get rides right away so you dont have to wait for them to finish researching them. Unlike other tycoons, you can really make the park your own by decorating it and changing ride colors. You can also hire workers that actually do stuff and you can see what the customers are thinking and they stay for a long time and spend a lot of money. I like this game a lot and think that whoever is thinking about getting it should get it if you love computer games like this!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Game
Review: Roller Coaster Tycoon would be my favorite game, right next to The Sims. You wouldn't believe how much fun it is designing your own amusement park. You wouldn't believe how much fun it is to make your guests happy and reach objectives. This game is tons of fun, and is extremely addicting.
