Guest get stuck and cant charge to enter park

Jdkiller091

We need the standard scenarios to have the ability to get more rides and charge to enter the park. I understand this is an old game i loved it as a kid....but add some enhancements to make it more like the old game. And please make people less dumb....they see a path and then cant figure out how to stop walking back and forth....big crowds build up like they are idiots lol


Perfect

Ross_boss_14

So many games attempt to bring a console or computer game to mobile, and fail. Atari, however, has hit the mark. The game is smooth, doesn’t lag, and creates basically the exact same experience that I grew up with. The nostalgia is strong. Not sure why they had to change the ride names, but I don’t care, the game is beautiful. Hats off to the designers.


Needs update for iPhone X

please choose

Great game. Just like the original. Will change to 4-5 stars when the game is updated for iPhone X. Some of the buttons are off-screen and can’t or are hard to be reached on the new phone.


iPhone X issues

Evandh

I’m a long time RCT fan, RCT2 being my favorite of the franchise, after hearing good reviews I sprang for this port and I’m deeply disappointed in the lack of iPhone X optimization. Certain windows get stuck behind the menus and can only be closed out by opening a different window which cancels out the stuck one. When renaming an attraction you can’t even see what you’re typing because it extends beyond the screen edge. This is just from the first five minutes of playing, I’m sure there are more iPhone X problems I haven’t yet come across. Please please please optimize this game for iPhone X, you already have my money, all I want is a fully compatible game.


Doesn’t have everything the original had.

Ok i have been playing this for quite a bit now and i was super hyped about it. Usually you don't see ported classic computer games for the phone like this. They usually water it down and pretend its anything like the original. So i was definitely pleasantly surprised by this. And it works really well. There are some odd glitches here and there with the scenario editor and the audio cuts out if you tap on a phone notification, but nothing i thought was too bad. Until i realized that theres definitely elements of the original game missing. Having some premade rollercoaster designs missing was one thing and i don't really care about that stuff, but theres actually scenery missing. This bothers me. Mainly the terrain tools. At least 6 other terrain sidings are missing... and at least 2 terrain grounds that make roofs. This makes a difference in gameplay because what they took out was the ability to make houses with the terrain. I know you can do it with whats in the walls and roofs scenery option but its definitely not the same and its also a massive pain to get right to do it that way if you are building something even somewhat large. So... not cool. Plus theres a bunch of paths and queue paths missing too. Not much... but enough. And its missing the ability to actually customize your paths. And the paths there are... most of them are yellow! It gives you like 7 different options of the same yellow path! Whats up with that??? So yeah no... not as good as the original yet. I can appreciate the improvements it HAS made to the original gameplay though. But I am definitely hoping that some time soon this app gets an update to actually give us paths and terrain like the original game had. Because now I'm just thinkin ok, what else is this game missing? Does it have less rides and stalls too? Idk. Its been so long i cant remember what it had and didn't have. But see you just cant skimp on these details. They're important.


Near-perfect port

Purple7392

This has everything I love and remember from the original game, right down to being able to pop loose balloons and making ducks quack by clicking on them. I've been enjoying the trip back into my childhood, and it is more than worth the price of the app. My only complaints are a few glitches; some were from the original game so I don't mind those as much, but the most major is app-specific: whenever anything pops up on the screen (control panel if I'm trying to change volume or music, "20% battery remaining", etc) or if I switch out of the app, the game loses all audio. Sometimes closing the app fixes this, sometimes I have to do it 3 or 4 times before I get my audio back. I've rated it 4 stars out of 5 for this, and would re-rate if they can fix it.


iPhone X

Loving the game but it has yet to be optimized for the iPhone X

Kevinkhabbaz

This game is amazing! By far the best game on the App Store. This is must buy for all you RCT fans.


Don’t have your phone in low power mode

StuntManMeg

The app doesn’t work in low power mode but other wise it’s a ton of fun, wish it was a little easier to buy land instead of clicking each plot one at a time.
