Customer Reviews
The Original Version of Rollercoaster Tycoon....I
love it!!
Well...I had this version of
Roller Coaster Tycoon for my old Windows and when I got my new puter
with Windows XP a couple of years ago...much to my chagrin, my Roller
Coaster Tycoon did not transfer.
I had gotten this for my son to
play, and he is now grown and gone. We tried other versions of Roller
Coaster Tycoon...but really none were as fun as the original one.
Once
he left...I had empty nest syndrome pretty badly. I looked in the
stores for the original version of RCT to see if they had made it
compatible with Windows XP and could not find it. But I was told it
might be available online...and I was delighted when I found it on
Amazon.
I ordered it and have enjoyed it immensely. I love Evergreen
Gardens and I play it through and accumulate alot of money on it, then
flatten it and make a Serenity Garden where I can make banners with
Scriptures and everything. I make just a few rides that I really enjoy
watching the workings of and then open my Serenity Park for a low fare
and watch the little kids come and play in my low key Amusement Park.
I
set all the rides on maintain every 10 minutes and I have plenty of
maintenance men, so even the coasters rarely crash. I am a very non
violent person and I don't like that feature in the scenario, so I
pretty much edit it out in the way I run my parks.
It is fun for this
older gal to see the kiddies play and it is a drift of imagination that
seems pretty harmless to me. I just try to limit my time, so I am only
truly using it for recreation and relaxation.
At last.
I was most disappointed when I
found I could no longer play the original game on my system and was
really pleased when I saw this game for XP. I am enjoying playing it,
nothing has changed and it is as much fun as the original. The only
drawback is that the amounts are all in American dollars and seeing as
they ship globally you would have thought there would have been a
currency option. Having said that, it is still really good and I spend
many happy hours in my own theme parks!
One
of the best PC strategy games ever.
This game is the original by
Chris Sawyer. My son and I have played it for years. It teaches
strategic thinking, among other things. It has wonderful visualization
facilities. Tremendous fun.
