Well...I had this version of Roller Coaster Tycoon for my old Windows and when I got my new puter with Windows XP a couple of years ago...much to my chagrin, my Roller Coaster Tycoon did not transfer.
I had gotten this for my son to play, and he is now grown and gone. We tried other versions of Roller Coaster Tycoon...but really none were as fun as the original one.
Once he left...I had empty nest syndrome pretty badly. I looked in the stores for the original version of RCT to see if they had made it compatible with Windows XP and could not find it. But I was told it might be available online...and I was delighted when I found it on Amazon.
I ordered it and have enjoyed it immensely. I love Evergreen Gardens and I play it through and accumulate alot of money on it, then flatten it and make a Serenity Garden where I can make banners with Scriptures and everything. I make just a few rides that I really enjoy watching the workings of and then open my Serenity Park for a low fare and watch the little kids come and play in my low key Amusement Park.
I set all the rides on maintain every 10 minutes and I have plenty of maintenance men, so even the coasters rarely crash. I am a very non violent person and I don't like that feature in the scenario, so I pretty much edit it out in the way I run my parks.
It is fun for this older gal to see the kiddies play and it is a drift of imagination that seems pretty harmless to me. I just try to limit my time, so I am only truly using it for recreation and relaxation.

I was most disappointed when I found I could no longer play the original game on my system and was really pleased when I saw this game for XP. I am enjoying playing it, nothing has changed and it is as much fun as the original. The only drawback is that the amounts are all in American dollars and seeing as they ship globally you would have thought there would have been a currency option. Having said that, it is still really good and I spend many happy hours in my own theme parks!

I was disappointed when my computer was too advanced to run the old roller coaster tycoon. All the new versions were not as fun and had too many graphics for me. I was excited to find out that the original was available for advanced operating systems. Im running Windows 7. Every now and then the game will freeze or have an error but I can just start again and its fine. Just save your game often!

This game is the original by Chris Sawyer. My son and I have played it for years. It teaches strategic thinking, among other things. It has wonderful visualization facilities. Tremendous fun.

What can I say that the other reviewers haven't said already? Rollercoaster Tycoon is a blast! It's one of the best timesucking games ever.
This Deluxe pack contains the original Rollercoaster Tycoon and its two really, really fun expansions! It's bundled together well in that you only load one program to access all three, and it runs very well on Windows XP. I've only had a few issues with it erroring out on me, but that's because I play it on a lower resolution and switch between screens a lot. That isn't common though; and I just save more often.
Highly recommended as a fun, relaxing game! There are hours and hours (more like days and weeks) of gameplay in this little package. Great price for a great product.

My son (14 yrs. old) has wanted this game for a long time. I was afraid I waited too long and he'd outgrown it....but he played it for hours the night it arrived. I like that he is learning as he is playing.

I purchased this a while ago but I have been playing it ever since it came to my door and it really is a good flashback from back in the day when it first came out. No complaints and it was also on time with no damage to it.

I love RCT, but this has one glaring flaw.
I loved Rollercoaster Tycoon. I bought all of the first games as they came out one by one. Before they were stolen I owned an original RCT, Loopy Landscapes, and Corkscrew Follies... Read more

Rollercoaster Tycoon
One of my all time favorites. It is one of those games you can play over and over again. I have installed it and uninstalled it several times over the years.
