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.
Gameplay
The player manages many aspects of their theme park. The most important part is ride construction. The player can design roller coasters, build pre-fabricated rides and stalls. The player also needs to build paths to connect the attractions. Finally, the player controls the prices of rides, hires staff, and manages finances to keep the park profitable.
Game Modes
RollerCoaster Tycoon has 3 different game modes, each with different objectives.
Career Mode
In career mode, the player builds their theme park in a pre-designed park, and must meet a set of objectives. These objectives include number of visitors, park rating (popularity and satisfaction), roller coaster specifications, and successful VIP visits. Each scenario has 3 sets of objectives, apprentice, entrepreneur, and tycoon. The higher the level of completion, the more scenarios are available.
Sandbox Mode
Sandbox mode is a free-form building mode, which allows players to build nearly anything. There is unlimited money, no objectives, and the largest available amount of land.
Editors
The editors allow players to design rides, guests (peeps), and scenarios that can be used in other modes.
