RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 2002

Is it still worth playing?

Chris Sawyer's 2002 amusement park management game for Windows, in which you build and run parks to complete the goals of each scenario. The view is isometric. You add transport, gentle, thrill and water rides, roller coasters, shops and stalls, plus landscaping and decorations, build facilities such as bathrooms and ATMs, hire staff and balance expenses against income. Each wall and roof piece can be placed individually, at varying heights above and below ground, and a Roller Coaster Designer lets you make and test coasters that you can reuse in other levels. A scenario editor lets you set landscapes, objectives and available rides, and content from the park company Six Flags provides scenarios based on five of its parks. Every scenario still gives you a park to design, and coasters you make and test yourself give each one something to build toward.
