Average Game
I would have given this game 3 stars back in the day, but as there are so many better options now, I'm dropping a star. I get that many people remember this game fondly and that that often influences a persons score of a game. There is no need to be objective when leaving a review on GOG and I respect that. I myself love plenty of games from the time of this game that others might have a hard time getting into these days. But, this isn't one of those games. This is a game I played during middle school (if I remember correctly) and I honestly never understood all of the fuss. I love these types of games, Roller Coaster Tycoon sucked away months of my life. This game is buggy, unattractive, hard on the ears, and just plain not fun to play. The interface isn't great and overall in the end there isn't a whole lot to do. I can't see how anyone who is being honest could claim that this game stands the test of time and is worth playing with options out there like Roller Coaster Tycoon. If you loved it as a child and want to re-experience it or if you really need to play every bullfrog game or see the beginning of a genre, then by all means pick this up at whatever price suits you. Personally, I'd wait for a sale. Myself? I'm going to choose to leave the painful memories behind me and pop in my copy of Roller Coaster Tycoon for a few quick hours of fun on a lazy Saturday morning.
