Overview

PC Gaming World is one of three promotional scenarios for the original RCT along with PC Player and gameplay. This small park is located in a desert, and has the landscape forming the letters PC GW (which stands for PC Gaming World). There's a ghost train going through these letters, as well as a wooden twister roller coaster built as well. Despite the nearby setting, no further land may be bought. Only $1000 is available at the beginning, and a loan of $20,000 is already taken, leaving only $15,000 available for further loans.

Pre-Built Rides

Calamity (Wooden Roller Coaster)

Excitement Rating: 7.66 (High)

Intensity Rating: 8.89 (Very High)

Nausea Rating: 5.24 (High)

Initial Price: $5.00

Confusion (Ghost Train)

Excitement Rating: 4.44 (Medium)

Intensity Rating: 0.55 (Low)

Nausea Rating: 0.25 (Low)

Initial Price: $3.50

Scenario Guide

A first step here would be to trace a path from the entrance to Confusion, along the western hills, to the left of the park entrance. This would prevent future overcrowding. A second step would be to set the park's research priorities to Gentle & Thrill Rides, with maximum funding as always. The third step would be increasing the rides' prices in order to have some fresh cash rolling in. The fourth step would be placing some shops & stalls, and set their prices accordingly.

Calamity is in danger of undergoing a Crash should it receive the Station Brakes Failure breakdown condition, as the trains enter the stations at breakneck speed with no breaking system in place anywhere on the track. Placing a mechanic near the exit and setting the coaster's inspection time to 10 minutes can reduce the chances of the ride crashing as it ages. Alternatively, adding brakes on the only straight piece of track in the final underground section and setting the brake speed accordingly works as well.

After these steps are done, can the player freely expand the park.
