The Complete Awards List

From RollerCoaster Tycoon Wiki Wiki, the RollerCoaster Tycoon encyclopedia that anyone can edit.

If you are looking for this wiki's awards system, please see RollerCoaster Tycoon Wiki:Awards.

The Complete Awards List below includes awards from each original game and their expansion packs.

Positive awards will increase the number of guests visiting the park, similar to the effect of advertising campaigns. Negative awards reduce the number of guests visiting the park, ultimately resulting in lower revenue, so they should be avoided at all costs.

Awards can only be earned once the park meets certain criteria. Once said criteria have been met, the award may be given out at random at the start of the following month—it is not possible to increase or decrease the likelihood of earning an award. In RCT1, RCT2 and RCTC, it is also not possible for the park to earn more than one award at the start of each month.

When the park receives an award, it keeps that award for 5 months and the award is displayed in the "Awards" tab in the park window. Depending on the award received, the park will not be able to receive other awards for as long as the received award is kept.

Positive Awards

Image Award Description Introduced in
Best Value Park Award There is a chance of getting this award if the park entrance fee is set to a low amount. Getting this award is also an indication that the player can afford to increase admission prices for more income, but keeping admission fees low to continue attracting additional guests is usually more beneficial.

This award cannot be obtained in a scenario with no money or if the park currently has the Most Disappointing Park or Worst Value Park awards.

RollerCoaster Tycoon
Tidiest Park Award If many guests think "This park is really clean and tidy" and very few guests think "This path is disgusting", "The litter here is really bad" or "The vandalism here is really bad", there is a chance of earning this award. This can be accomplished by ensuring that litter and vomit on the park's pathways are swept fast, the park's litter bins are emptied regularly and vandalised path objects are kept to a minimum.

This award cannot be obtained if the park currently has the Most Disappointing Park or Untidiest Park awards.

RollerCoaster Tycoon
Most Beautiful Park Award The park may earn this award if a considerable number of guests think "Great scenery!" and very few guests think "This path is disgusting", "The litter here is really bad" or "The vandalism here is really bad". The likelihood of a guest thinking "Great scenery!" is higher if many scenery objects are placed within a two-tile radius of footpaths.

This award cannot be obtained if the park currently has the Most Disappointing Park or Untidiest Park awards.

RollerCoaster Tycoon
Safest Park Award The park has a chance of earning this award if all rides in the park do not have a "crash history" and very few guests think "The vandalism here is really bad". RollerCoaster Tycoon
Park With The Best Roller Coasters Award A park with 6 or more operating roller coasters stands a chance of receiving this award. RollerCoaster Tycoon
Best Park Food Award For the park to stand a chance of getting this award, it must have a wide variety and quantity of food stalls constructed throughout the park, as well as a handful of "unique" food stalls (i.e. only one food stall of the same kind built in the park), and as few guests as possible thinking "I'm hungry". RollerCoaster Tycoon
Best Bathroom Facilities Award If the park has many Toilets and very few guests are thinking "I need to go to the bathroom", it may earn this award. Loopy Landscapes
Best Staff Award This award may be given to a park that employs many staff, as well as staff from all four categories. Loopy Landscapes
Park With The Best Water Rides Award The park has a chance of earning this award if it has 6 or more water rides operating and none of them have a "crash history". Loopy Landscapes
Best Gentle Rides Award The park may earn this award if it has 10 or more gentle rides operating. RollerCoaster Tycoon 2
Best Custom-Designed Rides Award The park has a chance of getting this award if it has 6 or more rides operating that are not saved as track design files and each has an excitement rating exceeding 5.50. RollerCoaster Tycoon 2
Most Dazzling Ride Color Schemes Award There is a possibility of getting this award if more than 5, and more than half, of the tracked rides in the park have their main track color set to bright purple, bright green, light orange or bright pink. RollerCoaster Tycoon 2

Negative Awards

Image Award Description Introduced in
Worst Value Park Award This award may be given to a park that has a high park admission fee. The park admission fee should either be lowered or more rides should be built to justify the high entrance fee.

This award cannot be obtained in a scenario with no money or if the park has the Best Value Park award.

RollerCoaster Tycoon
Untidiest Park Award The park may get this award if a consistent number of guests keep thinking "This path is disgusting", "The litter here is really bad" and "The vandalism here is really bad". Getting this award may be an indication that a certain part of the park is perpetually filled with litter, vomit and/or vandalised objects, or that the player has to organise their handymen and/or security guards better.

This award cannot be obtained if the park has the Most Beautiful Park, Tidiest Park or Best Staff awards.

RollerCoaster Tycoon
Most Disappointing Park Award If the park has a Park Rating below 650 and more than half of the rides in it have less than 3% popularity, it stands a chance of getting this award. Rides tend to be unpopular if they are built too far away from the main guest traffic or do not fit the preferred ride intensity of most guests; in parks where ride admission fees are charged, overcharging for rides can also make them unpopular. A low Park Rating is usually caused by a combination of factors, including litter, vomit, vandalism, crashed rides and poor path planning.

This award cannot be obtained if the park has the Best Value Park award.

RollerCoaster Tycoon
Worst Park Food Award This award may be given if the park does not have enough food stalls and/or lacks food variety and a considerable number of guests think "I'm hungry". More food stalls should be built; different kinds of food stalls from the ones already existing in the park should also be built.

This award cannot be obtained if the park has the Best Food award.

RollerCoaster Tycoon
Most Confusing Park Layout Award The park may obtain this award if several guests think "I'm lost!" or "I cannot find <ride name>". RollerCoaster Tycoon 2
