What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players appreciate this as a cheap, nostalgic throwback to classic tycoon games with some relaxing sandbox appeal, but criticize it heavily for clunky UI design, lack of essential features like moving objects or copy-paste functionality, and opaque game mechanics that make it difficult to understand why rides aren't attracting visitors. Most agree it's an inferior alternative to RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 or Planet Coaster, though it has its niche appeal for those seeking a retro, low-pressure management experience.
Would recommend this if, like me, you have nostalgic memories of trolling NPCs in sandbox mode with only a ticket booth, a generator, and a soda shop. (Despite their anger, they will still pay!) Otherwise, there are much better management games out there. This one just happened to be my introduction to Greed 101 and now I perfectly understand how U.S. real estate developers think.
I dont know if its good or bad but its fun its basicily planet coaster but worse graphics and very VERY few rides but it has good parts i would recomend it if you want a cheap game overall rating 7/10
[h1]This game is f*cking stupid. Firstly the UI is awful. You can't mouse-scroll down the pages, having the single click on everything. Every. Single. Time. Once you place something, you can't move/rotate it. So you gotta delete it, go back through the tedious menu to find it and place it back. There's also no copy/paste. Want 20 benches? That'll cost you valuable time clicking. Second, WHY do the patrons spawn INSIDE the f*cking park and not from the outside where all my TOLL BOOTHS ARE!? Third, after spending 40 minutes building a massive theme park. NO ONE IS GOING ON THE F*CKING RIDES!?!? And this game doesn't have the capability to tell me WHY!! Play RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 instead. 3/10[/h1]
yes it's not the best tycoon game but its a better than rct 1 and 2 to me because you can at least ride the rides
The game is not Planet Coaster or Roller Coaster Tycoon but for a small old retro carnival game it is something similar and relaxing. It was kinda fun if you watch my YouTube Channel your welcome to give the two videos a look. I believe I got this in a bundle if I remember? It was so long ago I forgot but the game has been sitting in my library for so long I thought ♥♥♥♥ it why not give it a try just to see what it is about. If your looking for something different that is fun and easy going that is similar to Planet Coaster or Roller Coaster Tycoon then look no further.
Here is a game I am also glad to have again. It was always my second favorite amusement park tycoon game.
