Summary
Arguably the most successful tycoon game to hit the industry, Chris Sawyer’s Rollercoaster Tycoon has already become one of the most extensive and well-supported simulation games ever created. The original game was released in 1999 and saw the release of several expansion packs before its sequel was released. And now the second game in the series is to get its second expansion pack, aptly named Time Twister.
Rollercoaster Tycoon is a mix of two playing styles - construction and management. The management aspect of the RC Tycoon 2 is what drives the game forward. Charged with running a growing theme park, players must look after everything financial and keep the park clean and up to date.
Coaster design is the most appealing aspect of RC Tycoon 2. With coaster design progressing on a day-to-day basis, Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 (RCT2) comes with the latest state-of-the-art machinery and elements from the past couple of years. These include Intamin's infamous giga-coaster, Arrow Dynamics' 4D coasters, the best coasters from industry innovators B&M (manufacturers of Alton Towers' Nemesis, Oblivion and AIR) and the financially-troubled Vekoma.
The Time Twister add-on pack helps expand and diversify players’ parks with a variety of new themes, objects and environments. Tycoons can now decorate sections of their parks to look like a number historical or forward-looking “ages” including prehistoric, mythological, dark, deco, rock ‘n’ roll and future ages. Attractions such as the Raptor Ride, Minotaur Maze and Jet Pack Coaster are on hand to make the experience more authentic for your virtual guests, and there are 14 brand new scenarios for veterans of the series to try out.
Time Twister is a comprehensive addition to the Rollercoaster Tycoon series and is a huge bonus for fans of Chris Sawyer's fabulous creation.
