My Favorite Video Game

RollerCoaster Tycoon

RollerCoaster Tycoon, a 1999 construction and management simulation game published by Hasbro Interactive, is one of my favorite games. As a theme park enterpreneur, your goal in this game is to complete a series of preset scenarios by successfully building and maintaining amusement parks through business ownership.

Theme Park Setting

The main rides in the game are roller coaster with dozen of types like steel roller coaster, mountain coaster and inverted roller coaster. Also you can build a lot of different stuff from paths to food stall, resting place, haunted house, maze, ferris wheels,... There are no limitation in this game, you can even expand or change the terrain of the park in anyway you want: mountain range, big lake, dessert,... Or just mess up and kill all the guest like the guy below:

Maybe even this:

The game maybe old, but it's still one of the best game I've ever played. You can find it on Steam for $5.99.
