RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 expands the theme-park management formula with more attractions, construction options, scenarios, and creative possibilities. Players design elaborate amusement parks, build custom roller coasters, manage finances, and attempt to keep increasingly demanding visitors happy. The sequel improves the construction tools while retaining the addictive balance between creativity and business management that made the original so popular. Designing a coaster is only half the challenge; it also needs to make money, attract visitors, and ideally avoid becoming a monument to poor engineering. RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 encourages experimentation, making it easy to spend far too long adjusting a single curve until the ride looks perfect. It is a wonderful simulation of the theme-park business, provided you ignore the fact that your virtual customers will happily queue for a ride that looks absolutely terrifying.
