Roller Coaster Tycoon 3
« on: November 13, 2009, 09:21:46 PM »
Anyone play this game? It seem pretty fun...

(NOTE: Info from wikipedia...)

RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 is a strategy and simulation game in which players manage all aspects of an amusement park by building or removing rides, scenery and amenities, adjusting the park's finances, hiring staff, and keeping the park visitors, known as "peeps", happy. RollerCoaster Tycoon features two main game modes. The career mode features scenarios where players must accomplish goals, such as impressing a visiting celebrity or attaining a certain park rating. Each scenario has three levels of objectives ranked as Apprentice, Entrepreneur, and Tycoon; the higher the level, the harder the goal to complete. A third of the scenarios are initially playable, with the rest unlocked by completing objectives at each level. The second mode of play is the sandbox mode. Players are given a large, empty plot of land and unlimited funds with which to build their custom parks.

RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 includes new gameplay features such as the CoasterCam, which allows players to "ride" roller coasters and other rides, and the MixMaster, which allows the player to coordinate firework shows and time them to in-game music. Another new feature is an in-game recorder allowing players to record their parks, rides and more. Unlike the two previous versions of the game, RollerCoaster Tycoon and RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, the guests, called "peeps", arrive in groups and show variation in gender and age, including children, teenagers and adults. A day/night cycle changes the demographics of the park's peeps; rides at night appeal to teenagers, while the daytime attracts families with children. Parks now have opening and closing times, and the time of day is displayed. Scenery is divided into themes to customize parks, with western-, spooky-, science fiction- and adventure-themed pieces. Another feature is the ability to import coasters from previous games in the series into RCT3.

The game uses fully 3D graphics instead of the isometric viewpoint of the previous games; players can rotate and zoom the view of the park to any degree. However, there is an option to fix the camera's rotation to 90° angles, as in the previous games.

I played it earlier, right now my com is too slow to play any game where it's enjoyable.
However, I'm considering not to install it again, because it creates some annoying empty folders which I don't want.

But I like the game. :)
