Of the three Rollercoaster Tycoon series available in my opinion this is the best. I have reated this as 5 stars as I can't fault this package, the Rollercoaster Tycoon game alone is so addictive, but to add an expansion pack is undoubtedly great value and keeps the fun going. Lovers of any of the other Tycoon strategy games I'm sure will love this one too.
Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 is a game that is intuitive and a one most people can relate to and have fun.
Rollercoaster Tycoon is easy to undertand and with a little practice you'll soon be on your way to spending days playing this. The 'games' are scenarios that you are given to complete. You have an objective and a timescale and with good money management and a marketing strategy they are not too difficult to achieve.
If you want to take on an extra challenge you can build your own rollercoasters from scratch - I personally preferred to use the ready made layouts, but that's just my preference.
Overall the quality of these games is excellent. If you purchase this package I'm sure you'll be hooked into buying Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 (although i found the extra features in the newer version to be unnecessary and adds complications that put me off somewhat).
This would be suitable I would say from teenager to adult and will provide hours of entertainment.
