Roller Coaster Tycoon is a fun game and very addictive, but only for a while.
The first few weeks were a lot of fun playing this game, but after that it becomes too predictable and boring. The problem with it is that it is virtually impossible to fail at or lose. No matter what you do, within reason, and you will make money and expand your amusement park. After a while this proved boring for me and I felt like it was unchallenging and a waste of time.
Another thing I did not like about the game is that the money values are unrealistic. For example, I can charge $40 to get into the park and $2 for each ride, which is all right. But I can also buy a huge multi-million dollar roller coaster for $10,000. I found this part of the game disappointing.
