Roller Coaster Tycoon does it again. with even more variety & a "facelift"
Roller Coaster Tycoon (AKA: RCT) does it again... with keeping what was liked from previous RCT games and then adding more variety, rides, scenarios, thrills, challenges and fun... and making other rides, features, etc, better.
this game just keeps up the roller coaster tycoon tradition of more, more more... only in a good way.
more scenarios, more rides, more new additions that were never in the previous games. improvements and additions on what was already there, and much, much more.
and of course the bettering of some features of previous games was nice to.... such as "assigning staff" now instead of being able to assign only by 3X3 square areas at one time, like previous RCT games... one can now assigns staff a single square at a time.. it may seem like a lot of work, but it's not and the benefit is being able to make your staff patrol ONLY the area you want them to.
another addition is the standard ramp for foot paths (sidewalks) there is the small incline (to build above your park as always)and now there a steeper hill for paths as well for you to use, so one can get more height on their paths (to go over & under other rides/paths) without taking up as much space in your park.
i have only played RCT3 briefly, so far (half dozen hours or so) and i feel i've barely scratch the service of all the wonderful things to do. but i am very impressed with all the new features, rides, etc. and the improvements on old features, designs, etc. that i've seen thus far. i can't wait to play more
and the updated 3D graphics are really nice. (previous RCT games have 2D graphics) which are nice. but the 3D graphics are a nice improvement. for those who see pictures of the new 3D graphics... my first thought was "they look horrible" and to be honest, the promo pics, screen shots, etc. don't do the graphics justice.. they look great on my PC. so, do not go by the pictures of the game, imo.
BOTTOM LINE: roller coaster tycoon always delivers with fun, excitement, challenges and fun for the whole family from young to old.Read full review
