by

Atari has released RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic on iPhone and iPad, combining the best features of the popular PC and Xbox titles RollerCoaster Tycoon (1999) and RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 (2002) to create "a new RCT experience" for long-time fans.

RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic

Create and run amazing parks complete with the most outrageous rides imaginable. RCT Classic includes a mixture of authentic playability, depth of gameplay and unique graphical style of Chris Sawyer’s original best-selling RollerCoaster Tycoon® PC Games, now enhanced for handheld devices.

Packed with content, players can enjoy designing and building roller coasters and rides, landscaping parks and managing the staff and finances to keep their guests happy and the money flowing in.

The game includes hundreds of pre-made designs and classic building tools for bespoke coaster construction, a fully featured park designer and park management tools, 95 classic park scenarios from the two games, and the original graphics, park music and sound effects.

RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic costs $5.99 and is available on the App Store for iPad and iPhone, with the expansion packs Wacky Worlds, Time Twister and Toolkit available as in-app purchases. [Direct Link]

I remember the trick was finding all the visitors who were unhappy, picking them up, and dropping them in the lake to die. That was the best way to get your happiness rating up quickly.

Theme Park was so much better! The original. There would be sick everywhere and the cleaners would be on a fag break or stuck in a loop walking in circles!

The engineers would all sit and eat their lunch whilst the rides were burning down and people were screaming!!

I wish they would bring this game back!

Wow. I used to love this game! Definitely going to buy it! The young kids may not like this because of the graphics but this is exactly how it look back in '99.
You think so? This game has better graphics than Minecraft!
