'''''RollerCoaster Tycoon''''' ('''RCT''' or '''RCT1''' for short) is a theme park management simulation game. The player must build successful theme parks to fulfill a set of objectives in various scenarios. The player can build custom roller coasters and tracked rides and add pre-designed rides, shops and stalls, path systems, and scenery to their park. ''RollerCoaster Tycoon'' is the first game of the [[RollerCoaster Tycoon (Series)|''RollerCoaster Tycoon'' series]]; it has two expansion packs - ''[[Corkscrew Follies/Added Attractions]]'' and ''[[Loopy Landscapes]]'', and has two successful sequels - ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon 2]]'', and ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon 3]]''.

Higher resolutions won't work, though lower resolutions should be possible.

==Compatibility==
RollerCoaster Tycoon, being made in 1999, is still somewhat compatible
 
== Criticisms ==
A common complaint was the lack of a scenario editor or a 'free build' mode. Several trainers were released but the expasions included anti-cheat code that disabled them. Sawyer's belief that RCT was a game, and that as such, should include rules, goals and conditions to keep it from becoming just a design tool[http://www.rctstationarchive.com/knowledgebase/scenariomaking.shtml]; this is likely why there are no money codes included. [[Rollercoaster Tycoon 2]] later added the scenario editor.
