 sweet November 2, 2008
i don't spend much time on it but when i do, i thoroughly enjoy all the new options up from rct 2 (and 1 even).
its not hard to adjust to after the old ones, just takes a few minutes of clicking around and playin around
Very Fun, But Has Problems July 15, 2008
Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 is a great game with great features, and it is very fun. I enjoy playing it a lot.
BUT, some of the controls are hard to use, and the instruction manual doesn't help much. The staff management is annoying, but you get used to it. Also, on some computers, it is slow. You need lots of memory, horsepower, etc. Also, difficult to learn at first.
Still, the game itself is fun, without the several bugs. Not suitable for very little kids.
4 stars for kids 10 and up
Alots of goods...Some bads June 27, 2008
There is alot of goods about the game like being able to ride the rides but there is alot of bads. when you create a roller coaster theres a 50% chance it's going to be too extreme for the park-goers. Where in real life I would ride it meaning other people would too! Graphics are pretty good though. And it's hard to get guests to travel to all parts of the park. And at night (the game has days and nights) my computer gets slow but don't let all the bads make you not buy it because I love the game anyway.

This was purchased for our son. He totally loves playing this game! Very happy with this purchase.
Very Good Sequel to the Previous Games March 20, 2008
Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 is a really great game. Many people think that it's not that great just because of the different interface. I strongly disagree. Before I bought this game, I read the reviews and thought twice about getting it. Countless reviews spoke of new features that just dragged the game down. But I am a fan of the RCT series, so I decided to take a chance and buy it. Luckily, I made the right choice.
It's true; the game is very different than the other RCT games, but that's not a bad thing. The new 3-D graphics let you fully experience your park. You can move the camera to unlimited angles and zoom in or out as close or far as you want. There are loads of new coaster types, rides, shops, and much more. You can customize your own buildings exactly as you please. Bring the park of your imagination to life.
Another plus is that you can ride the rides. One really good feature is this - have you ever played the previous RCT games and wished you could ride the roller coasters you built? Well, if you have any previous titles installed on you computer, the game simply transfers them to 3-D and you can place it in your RCT3 park.
The other features are great as well. You can play the career mode, in which you meet certain objectives in parks that are already started. Unlike the other RCT games, however, there are three levels of objectives - apprentice, entrepreneur, and tycoon - for each scenario. Each level consists of one or more objectives. You must complete apprentice to unlock entrepreneur, though, and so on and so forth. You must also complete these scenarios to unlock new scenarios.
Another mode is Sandbox Mode, in which you have a large piece of land and unlimited money to do whatever you want with. You can even design your own scenarios and objectives, or make your own customized guest, or "Peeps." You can add your own music from your computer to play during a ride.
Overall, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 is a really great game. Buy it, and you won't be disappointed.
