I like the game since the first time I saw it. The game's graphic is good, soft, fun, attractive, cute, and nicely done. We can build a theme park as good as we want. Sometimes if you go to a real theme park, you probably would say, "This rollercoaster must be very crowded if they put it over there" or "What does this snack kiosk doing here?" or maybe "If only I was the owner, I could make this theme park the best ever" or some comments like that. Well, you can! This game allows you to make your own best theme park. This game has almost everything you could find in the real theme park. You could build an observatory tower, a most scary roller coaster, a haunted house, restaurants, kiosks, souvenir kiosks, etc. You could add fountains everywhere to make you park even more beautiful and there's a lot of sceneries and plants in the game. You must bring out your handymans to prevent guests from vomitting, put up security guards in your park, entertain your guests while waiting in the line and cheer up your guests if they are not happy, etc. My sister, her husband, and her kids have been playing this game until now, that was after I showed them how to play, and they said that its easy to play the game and they got a lot of fun. Its a good game for a family. You can find and do a lot of things in this game. Go ahead, try it yourself, and lets see how you like the game ^-^Read full review
One of my clients told me about this game and how great it was for her grandkids. I often get frustrated when my boys are simply sitting at their PCs playing games that seem to put them in a vegatative state (for hours). This game (the first version of three) requires them to create rides at an amusement park and then to make money doing it. When we received the game, I loaded it and the boys took it from there; no instruction on my part! So, if you have kids about 7 years or older, throw one of these games in the PC and watch them create and make money right before your eyes. I highly recommend these games.
I love this old pc game it is better than the ones that they make now when it comes to rtc games. This is a must have game believe me buying a game like is a must.

Not as good or complete as Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 but a good starting point or if you, like me, haven't played in some time and need a refresher. Great little game that can teach a lot about management, people and money. It's just plain Fun!

I bought it as I needed a replacement. My other one went somewhere....and this was the ONLY copy I could find on e-bay. It has a few scratches, but works just fine. I couldn't use the other 3 discs that I have for Roller Coaster Tycoon without it. Thank YOU ebay and the seller as it is not available in stores any more. You can still get it at www.atari.com, but it only downloads to the desktop. You cannot use the expansion CD Roms by purchasing RTC off the internet site.....You HAVE to have the original CD Rom! I am very happy to have won this on ebay so now I can play ALL of the extra CD Roms that I have to this great game.
I am a HUGE fan of RCT and I love the original version and all of its expansions!!! If your a beginner you can start out by taking a tutorial to learn how to play. Once you beat Forest Frontiers (1st level) your eyes are literally glued to the screen. This game features a lot of scenarios and if you beat them all you unlock Mega Park!!!!! This game features the original roller coaster like the steel coaster and wooden coaster. You can launch the steel coaster off the track and blow it up. It has lots of cool cheats you can use. You click on the info button in a guests screen and you notified about every thing he does!!! You can name the guests, put them in holes, and drown them!!! If you are a fan of roller coaster then you must buy this game. After you beat the original version you have to get Corkscrew Follies and Loopy Landscapes. This offers new themes, music for rides, and all sorts of new exciting things. If you buy the Deluxe version then you get to build roller coasters that other fans have made. Thanks for viewing my guide!!!Read full review
As an active seller (kalidascope_eyes) and buyer of many eBay seller's products 10+ years, I naturally was looking for PC games for my 2 boys, ages 8 & 9, who would live on the computer playing on-line games if I allowed it! My concern with their playing on-line games is the limited control I have as a parent. Even though my boys are very good at following my rules (no violent games, no games with blood, no games with guns, etc), I recently caught my 8 year old playing an on-line game with explicit sexual content which I definitely did not approve of! As a result of the reasons mentioned as well as others, I decided to provide them with games that were age appropriate and fun. Roller Coaster Tycoon was the perfect choice! My children LOVE playing the game without realizing that it does actually teach them about many things. They must read directions and figure things out for themselves since I always insist they try to work out any problem on their own first. So they learn problem solving skills, they can play the game together and teach each other as well as learn how to help others and be fair and respectful to each other. They also learn how much fun to actually build something from the ground up and take pride in what they accomplish. I highly recommend Roller Coaster Tycoon for any children in the 10 year old price range. It is also a lot of fun for adults to play with or without their children!Read full review
I Absolutely LOVE Roller Coaster Tycoon. I remembered playing it when I was a teenager and I was FULLY addicted to it. I like the fact that your able to create a Roller Coaster that isn't really safe, let people get on it and then it kills the people. It's not just some kind of Fluke thing that happens, they Die!! Which is NOT really good but it's kind of amusing. And it's not that they are all Bloody or anything, that's just a cute aspect of the game. What I like to do is build up a HUGE park, Complete the objective and then Block off the Exit. I take away all the rides and all the refreshment buildings and put only one of each of them, right next to the entrance with some footpath Right in front of the buildings and one square out and around to make a Circle that they just Wander on. it's really fun to herd them into that little area and then when they are all on like 3 squares, (I believe i've gotten it down to 2 squares)... You release them so they can leave. I just love the FLOW of people out that Front Gate. It's just absolutely beautiful. It handles really well, it's SUPER easy to learn and when you DO learn how to play it, It's SUPER awesome and FuN! Enjoy!Read full review
Roller Coaster Tycoon may not have the best graphics or anything, but it's fun to play. The only thing I really didn't like about it was that you couldn't go on the rides yourself. It would have been so much better if you could actually go on the ride and follow it on your screen as if you were aboard. They might have added this feature in later games, but I haven't played any of them. In this game you can do most anything from making people throw up, to drowning them. It's fun mostly because of the little glitches in it. It's an old one, which makes it nice for computers with crappy graphics cards (like mine). All in all, it's fairly fun to play, but not amazingly addicting.
My wife loves it and uses it to practice for her Monday match at the Senior Center.
