RollerCoaster Tycoon overview
RollerCoaster Tycoon uses a real-world physics algorithm to model its coasters accurately. If you build an all-wooden coaster track, with an 80-foot drop and a hairpin turn to the left, without angling the track properly, the cars will go flying off the track, and you can expect a reduction in.

Game Hints & Tips
- When building thrilling rides, such as large roller coasters, place small rides to help build the confidence of your park visitors.
- Manage your staff crews to zones (patrol areas). If your staff is not managed ,you will find several staff members in one area and not in areas where they may be needed.
- Place park benches at the exit of large or dizzy rides, which allows visitors in the park to rest if they are sick.
- When creating a cleaning staff member, it is recommended that you order that staff member NOT to mow. If ordered to mow, you will find your cleaning staff mowing more than they are cleaning.
- Always place an 'Info and Souvenir' store towards the entrance of your park. You will notice that, as most visitors enter the park, they will purchase maps and umbrellas from this store, adding quick additional revenue.
- It is a good idea to always have bathrooms, even if your park does not have any food or drink stands. Opening a bathroom in your park allows your visitors to relieve themselves, as well as use the bathroom after an intense ride.
- When needing to increase your park's happiness to achieve an objective, use the Pincers and pick up visitors that are unhappy and place them in the water. Doing this will drown the visitor, but also increases your happiness objective.
