Description
Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 is the sequel to the award winning
Rollercoaster Tycoon.
RCT2 keeps the same graphics engine as the original, and adds a few new touches, such as guests looking at rides as they move, and is a real-time, isometric theme-park simulation.
As a theme park manager, you are tasked with building a park, using various rides and attractions, such as washrooms, restaurants, bumper cars, ferris wheels, go-karts, and, of course, rollercoasters. There are over twenty different rollercoaster types you can build, from steel coasters to wooden coasters to inverted coasters.
New in RCT2 is a bunch of new attractions, such as the ATM machine, and lots of new scenary and theming items, such as the Pirate theme.
There are a bunch of scenarios for you to attempt, from easy ones such as making a yearly profit of $10,000 to extreme ones such as making a yearly profit of $100,000 with rides that must have a certain rating without letting your reputation drop below 800.

Trivia
In Germany, Infogrames started a nice Point-of-Sale-Promotion for RCT2. There were Scream-o-Meters, which measured the scream intensity of people attending a Scream Competition. Very loud, as I recall... ;)
