'''''Time Twister''''' is the second expansion pack to ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon 2]]'', and is based on a time theme, exploring various time periods. '''Time Twister''' offers many new themed rides, scenery items, and scenarios.


Much like with [[Wacky Worlds]], this pack was also criticized for its lack of new gameplay options or new rides, since the rides included in the expansion pack are merely re-designs of previously available rides.
Many game critics and gaming websites compare this expansion to it predecessor, ''[[Wacky Worlds]]'', and criticize the expansion for a lack of new gameplay options or concepts.
