Criticism
RollerCoaster Tycoon 4 Mobile was criticised by many fans due to the use of freemium features (microtransactions) and charging an additional cost of having to buy the game first before the in-app purchases. Many fans also note missing features, such as ride queues and landscaping tools. The fans also criticised the game for not making the camera able to rotate and making objects transparent, this makes gameplay more difficult.
