This was also the first coaster game to feature a Sandbox mode, allowing the user to just mess around and build what they want without a game objective. This allowed numerous features, including the game-changing Coaster Cam that allows a POV of the coaster to be "ridden." This feature allowed for much more advanced landscaping, building construction, and of course, ease in designing a coaster. However, this was the first of the games to be done in 3D, unlocking the isometric perspective of the first two. Like the other two games in the franchise, RCT3's coasters are built by laying track pieces end-to-end, similar to building a Brio train set as a child. Rollercoaster Tycoon 3- RCT3 is one of the most commonly played coaster games by enthusiasts, though its popularity has dwindled somewhat recently. It was also the first coaster game to come with themed expansion packs, with Time Twister offering content themed to different historical eras and Wacky Worlds offering content themed to different geographical regions of the world. The game is also known for a licensing deal with Six Flags that allowed users to manage in-game versions of a few American and European Six Flags properties. Key additions to the game included the ability to add buildings to your parks, expanded theming and scenery options, and the ability to create park landscapes and coaster layouts and save them for use later. Rollercoaster Tycoon 2- Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 was essentially an expanded version of the original game. To my knowledge, it was also the first coaster game to come with expansion packs, with players able to add content from the Corkscrew Follies and Loopy Landscapes packs. It has also been recently adapted into RCT Classic, an iPad version of the iconic game.

This is unarguably the most iconic and famous theme park game that has ever been made, one of the most famous PC games ever made, and there's even argument that it's one of the great classics in PC gaming. Keeping Theme Park's grid structure (though isometrically projected unlike Theme Park), players have the option to build flat rides, a wide variety of different roller coasters, tracked rides, paths, scenery, and modify the landscape of your park. Rollercoaster Tycoon- By far the most famous coaster game, Chris Sawyer's iconic Rollercoaster Tycoon has kickstarted god knows how many aspiring roller coaster engineering dreams. You get a grid and you get to build flat rides and pretty simple roller coasters on it while managing the park financially. I've played a version adapted to Nintendo DS and it feels like a watered down version of the super familiar Rollercoaster Tycoon. Theme Park- This is the original roller coaster game, it's so dated that when it first came out it was packaged with an external CD drive. I know very few enthusiasts who have never played a coaster game, but which one is your favorite? Here's a rundown of all the major ones, in case you've not played all of them. To some degree, I've always loved roller coasters since my mother got me a copy of old school Rollercoaster Tycoon from the library and ended up buying it for me because I loved it so much, and I still have the disk from over fifteen years ago.
