'''RollerCoaster Tycoon 2''' (or '''RCT2''' for short) is the second installment in the [[RollerCoaster Tycoon (series)|RollerCoaster Tycoon series]]. Like in its predecessor, the player must build successful theme parks to fulfill a set of objectives in various [[Scenario|scenarios]]. The game was further expanded with two expansion packs, ''[[Wacky Worlds]]'' and ''[[Time Twister]]'', which brought more themes and theme-inspired derivatives of existing rides, as well as new scenarios. These two add-ons were not worked on by [[Chris Sawyer]].
