RollerCoaster Tycoon Wiki:Ride Exchange/Androgeos Exeunt

Ancient Dynamics

Since 2005

Greetings, and welcome to Ancient Dynamics! This is the ride exchange page of Androgeos Exeunt and features several ride designs created over the past decade.

In operation since 2005, Ancient Dynamics prides itself in manufacturing crash-proof, semi-compact track designs.

RollerCoaster Tycoon 2

Name	Ride Type	Cost	Size	Capacity	First Appearance	Exc.	Int.	Nau.	Description
The Abyss	Vertical Drop Coaster	$43,281	17 x 22	18 guests x 9 trains	Cloudburst Creek	8.95	9.10	5.12	Extremely tall (and expensive) ride design. Conceived as a towering vertical coaster design with a large guest capacity. The Abyss is Ancient Dynamics' first attempt at designing a track with more than 4 block sections. Features 17 drops, 2 inversions and over 7 seconds of 'air' time. Up to 6 trains can run concurrently on the 11-block circuit, giving The Abyss a maximum capacity of 96 guests at any one time. Exorbitant construction cost limits the use of this design to park managers who are already turning huge profits in a developed park and are looking for ride designs to sink their funds into.
Cave Canem	Log Flume	$6,238	17 x 14	4 guests x 15 cars	Cloudburst Creek	5.82	2.72	1.47	A medium-capacity log flume design that utilises several Classical/Roman Theming objects. Uses Classical/Roman Theming objects.
Gold Rattler	Wooden Wild Mouse	$7,262	15 x 9	4 guests x 8 trains	None (Concept)	7.04	8.96	5.07	Compact design created with the intention of pushing this coaster type to its specified limits. Designed to bleed off the speed of each train through sheer ride length such that they will always enter the station well below the 48 km/h crash threshold.
Juno	Giga Coaster	$92,173	12 x 49	36 guests x 4 trains	Six Flags	10.85	8.91	5.80	Juno is one of Ancient Dynamics' newer designs and attempts to combine an incremental upgrade to Sandstorm's 4-block circuit with an extremely tall and long but still somewhat narrow profile and a considerable amount of Classical/Roman Theming objects. The end result is a staggering, 3-minute, 6-block circuit comprising nearly 3500 m of track that includes a 119 m drop, a top speed of just over 180 km/h, nearly 15.00 seconds of "air time" and an optimised block section circuit that ensures that all four trains on the track are always in use, giving the Juno an actual ride capacity of 144 guests. Juno's impressive ride statistics and incredible height means that it is nearly impossible to ignore regardless of wherever it is built; it will draw guests towards it (and nearby rides around it) like moths to a flame. For sure, the cost of constructing Juno is staggering—the scenery items that are included with it alone cost almost as much as a small roller coaster—but there aren't that many other similar ride designs at Juno's scale that are as compact as it is and/or offer nearly as much drawing power. Uses Classical/Roman Theming objects.
Phalanx	Floorless Roller Coaster	$19,231	36 x 15	32 guests x 3 trains	Infernal Views	7.86	7.47	4.21	This high-capacity design was originally named "the Phoenix" in response to the Andy Hine Easter egg. The current version has a reduced chain lift speed to provide for a seamless ride on this 4-block circuit and adds Martian Theming objects, including Infernal View's volcano trio (sans fire), into the mix. Uses Martian Theming objects.
Sandstorm	Floorless Roller Coaster	$20,840	27 x 11	32 guests x 3 trains	Gemini City	7.44	7.13	3.94	Regarded as Ancient Dynamics' magnum opus. This is a high-capacity, semi-compact 4-block circuit design featuring two barrel rolls and a large vertical loop that interlocks with a helix. The amount of empty space at ground level means that this design can be used alongside most scenery/theming objects.
Supercircus	Mine Train Coaster	$26,660	21 x 21	8 guests x 11 trains	Six Flags	6.83	8.90	6.10	This non-conventional design was an experiment by Ancient Dynamics to expand on the running block design that was first used on The Abyss. In this regard, while Supercircus has more block sections—15 versus The Abyss's 11—it fails to make full use of its 11 trains, so its actual maximum capacity is only 42 guests at any one time. Park managers intending to build Supercircus in a giant pit are strongly advised to have lots of cash—equal to double the design's construction cost—lest they run out of funds during excavation works.
