RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 (or RCT3 for short) is the third installment of the RollerCoaster Tycoon Series. The gameplay is based on managing amusement parks to make guests happy. The player must build rides, paths, food stalls, and scenery to attract guests. Different game modes have different objectives for the player to meet. RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 is a significant improvement over the last two games because of the 3D graphics and the "Ride the Rides" function.
