RollerCoaster Tycoon: Loopy Landscapes

Review by prankster1221

"Damn you guests! Why won't you go on my ride!?"

The first Roller Coaster Tycoon was a classic. Most people have probably seen or played it. This expansion just adds more fun and excitement to the original.
Graphics - 8/10
The graphics are great for this game. You can what each individual person is doing from your view. Whether its eating pizza or throwing up, you can see it. Yes the graphics are just fine, there is nothing wrong with them so I'll stop about it.

Control - 10/10
Click, click, and click. It's all you do. It's very simple. Your mouse is all you'll need for this game. So there is nothing wrong with the control.

Sound - 6/10
The sound is great, but it's incredibly annoying. The songs from the rides sound like crap. I just turn off the volume when I'm getting sick of it and turn on the radio. You'll probably do the same. The talking of the guests, the rumbling coasters, the music is all annoying. I've said enough.

Gameplay - 10/10
I don't have to explain the gameplay because you need to have the original to play this and obviously, you all know what the gameplay is. It's great. So I'm going to talk about what has been added and what should've been added to the game.
Some nice things that were added were of course were all of the new missions. Also the new coasters, shops, rides, and everything that made us all say ''hey, I have to play this game! I must try the new stuff!''. That's what made me buy it, and I wasn't sorry.
I am very disappointed to say, that still everyone in the park are guys. Not one girl. It makes guys that play this game feel like...very strange, and it makes girls that play this game offended. I'm a guy and I wouldn't want to imagine if there were only girls in this game, so I can imagine how the girls feel.
I also hate this intensity rating for the rides. Because if the intensity rating is the slightest over the limit, people won't ride your ride. I know it makes the game more realistic but couldn't they have made some kind of special intense mission or something? Where you could make any kind of coaster and everyone would ride on it, or something like that. I hate it when I spend my time and money making some coaster and the people won't even ride on it.
Basically, this expansion is all of the original game with some stuff added and still has the same annoying problems.

Replay Value
You will play this game over and over again whether it's the first mission or the last. You'll love it forever. Making roller coasters is in my opinion the number one feature and you keep coming back to this game.
Good Points
Cool new rides, shops, scenery, etc.
Cool new missions
You can make your coasters crash and explode.
All the cool stuff of the original game!
Bad Points
All guys
People don't ride intense rides

Value
Get this game. You'll love it. I did, and so will you.
