Summary: great game /tutorial weak
Review: I know, What planet am I from?, but I just recently started playing RCT#1 and think it is great but I really want to master building my own rides and the challenge is to make sure your entrance and exit buildings work and gates etc. Just started excavating land and water. Water rides??? OMG Tutorial sucks and doesn't help you blueprint well enough to design coasters.The whole concept is great maybe I have to try expansion or newer versions

Review: This is a very good game. I used to play this game for hours on end. It's a lot of fun. The best part about it is that you don't need to have a supercomputer to play it. For those of you who's computers can't handle RCT 3, buy this game. Do Not get RCT 2, it's not worth the money to buy a slightly worse carbon copy of a great game.

Summary: Grab Some Popcorn and Take a Ride on the Roller Coaster!
Review: Anyone who has an old computer like mine (6 years old), knows it is getting harder and harder to find quality games that will fit your system. Roller Coaster Tycoon's minimum requirements are only 16 MB RAM, a CD ROM Drive speed of 4x and 50 MB of free hard drive space, so it works great even on my obsolete system. What is more, it is a fun game! The first simulation game I became familiar with was Theme Hospital and, since I enjoyed that game so much, I decided to switch from the hospital beds and psychiatry couches to the roller coasters and concession stands. Theme Hospital was a little easier to learn. At first, I could not figure out how to get the rides up and running, but the tutorial soon set me straight. Now I am having hours of fun with this game.

This game allows you to do all kinds of things. You can build a variety of rides from the kiddie ones (haunted house, curly slide, carousel, Ferris wheel) to scary, complex roller coasters. You can even name the rides! The roller coasters can come pre-made or, when you get more advanced, you can design your own. There are also a variety of concession stands to build including a burger place, soft drink stand, balloon stand, popcorn, pizza, french fries, you name it! Different scenery can be chosen too, including those with a Greek, Roman, or Egyptian theme to really give your park character. As you play the game, new rides, scenery, and concession stands will be introduced. Each time I play, I discover something new! You also get to hire maintenance men, handymen, security guards, and entertainers (guys dressed up like pandas, elephants, or tigers). You do not have to baby-sit the game as much as Theme Hospital, as your workers always go where they're needed. Sometimes, you need to move handymen to different spots to clean up vomit and litter faster. Remember to hire enough maintenance men to inspect the rides, otherwise CRASH! Patrons can die in this game, so watch out! You can also check what the customers are thinking about your park and the different rides. The only annoying part of the game is when customer after customer gets lost and the game keeps beeping at you. You have to adjust the walk ways to prevent this. Otherwise, this game is loads of fun, easy to learn, and very rewarding when you begin to see the amusement park of your dreams taking shape!

Summary: Really good!
Review: I bought this game years ago and never finished it until returning recently to it. It's a lot of fun, especially if you love roller coasters and amusement parks. Given various parks of different sizes and obstacles, you are assigned various missions, mostly with the same main objectives. Build a park which has x number of guests, and make sure the guests like it. You can design your own roller coasters, although they have a few samplers to get you started. The game designers have thought of amazing details, including handymen, restrooms, food, nausea, repairs, scenery, and advertising. A great clean game that's really fun to play. Also try the expansion packs.
