ROLLERCOASTER TYCOON CLASSIC APP ANDROID
Based on reviewing on an Android device I would say that at £5.99 the base game is fairly priced and definitely worth the price. My verdict for the game, well it’s a bit complicated. Note that, due to being a mod, to use OpenRCT2 you do need to own a copy of RCT2.
ROLLERCOASTER TYCOON CLASSIC APP MOD
This mod brings many features such as variable speed, a day/night cycle and multiplayer support to RCT2 and I would suggest if playing on a PC it is better to use this option. Whilst this won’t include the changes mentioned above, there is a mod package for RCT2 called the OpenRCT2 Project. I say this is strange however, as both RCT and RCT2 can be purchased on Steam for a combined price of 11.78GBP, although they do go on sale and can be picked up for less than this. Strangely, the game was also later ported to PC and made available on Steam for 14.99GBP, however this version does come already bundled with the three packs. One of the alternative terrain styles showing a disused mine The RCTC Toolkit is a bit more expensive at 5.99GBP (the same price as the base game) and brings the scenario editor, ride designer and a tool to enable you to import and export saves between RCTC and RCT2 on your PC. These add 17 and 14 new scenarios respectively, along with new rides, stalls and scenery items.
The Wacky Worlds and Time Twister expansions cost 1.99GBP each. This is the content which is available as modestly priced IAPs. Whilst the base game contains most of the content from RCT including both expansions and RCT2, it does not contain the RCT2 expansions packs, or additional tools such as coaster designer and scenario creator. In terms of RCTC there are 3 IAPs available. I mentioned in-app purchases earlier which everyone loves to hate. This is obviously problematic with a touch device and so the UI again has been redesigned with a simple toggle to enable stacking, however the simple act of selecting the relevant tile edge for placing walls and fences can be extremely frustrating. Where in RCT2 to stack items, such as walls and roofs, you simply pressed shift and they stacked easily. Scenery placement is something which I never really bothered with when playing RCT games and other than basics I haven’t done much in the mobile version either. It is important to note, however, that whilst unlocked scenarios will carry there is no cloud saving so you cannot play the same save on a phone and a tablet.Ĭonstructing a custom rollercoaster layout This integration also allows you to save progress across devices. This brings 11 achievements to the game for completing each of the scenario groups and a secret achievement. There is also Google Play Games integration.
The UI has been redesigned with ‘smoother’ icons which, whilst still in the RCT style, feel a little too polished against the rest of the game, although the layout of buttons does fit better for a mobile game. Whilst the game has many similarities to the original in the gameplay, such as the scenarios and gameplay loop of building rides, designing rollercoasters and ensuring the needs of guests are met, there are also some changes due to the nature of being a mobile game. Each scenario also takes place in a unique map across a number of different landscapes ranging from forest and desert, to arctic and even alien planets, again keeping the gameplay fresh with each level. These are well mixed between the scenarios and vary quite a lot meaning that each scenario you play means you are trying to focus on something different. In some cases there may be multiple conditions, for example have 900 guests in your park at the end of year 3 with a park rating of 600. These range from a simple have x number of guests in your park at the end of year y, achieve a company/park value of z etc. Scenario selections showing available, locked andĮach scenario has a certain win condition that you must meet to unlock new scenarios and therefore complete the game.
