• RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic (Nintendo Switch) Review - 5 December 2024

  Seeing RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic finally make it to the Switch genuinely caught me by surprise. For a game with such a sterling reputation, it’s amazing that it wasn’t mentioned during any Nintendo Directs or given any kind of fanfare. Regardless of how it got there, it’s finally here, and that’s pretty cool on its own. I’ve mentioned in the past that RollerCoaster Tycoon was one of two games I was allowed to have on my computer back in the early 2000s. Despite being a soft-brained 12-year-old and having almost no capacity for sim games, I always enjoyed its unique gameplay and distinctive charm. I’m not exaggerating when I say I probably haven’t revisited RollerCoaster Tycoon in decades, and the Switch version has definitely left me with mixed feelings. I won’t spend much time talking about the game because, at its core, it remains the same game that defined an era of PC gaming. Pla…

• RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic rides onto Steam tomorrow - 27 September 2017

  Last December, RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic—a remaster of 1999's RollerCoaster Tycoon—launched on mobile devices. Tomorrow, it arrives on Steam.  Remastered by series creator Chris Sawyer, RCT Classic aims to "combine the best features" from the 18-year old original and its successor RollerCoaster Tycoon 2. And it comes with the game's Toolkit, Wacky Worlds and Time Twister expansions in tow. Here's the trailer for RTC Classic's mobile iteration: Speaking to those expansions, Wacky Worlds adds an extra 17 park scenarios to the base game, as well as famous landmark pavilions—Big Ben, the Statue of Liberty, etc.—each with its own specific challenges. Time Twister adds 14 scenarios based around historical and/or fantasy themes; while Toolkit offers up a Park Scenario Editor.  If the latter is your cup of tea, this story from Michael…
