It was my 14th birthday, my parents decided to get me this. I was thinking that it would be a waste. But it would have been more of a waste if I didn't play it at all. But I did, and it was so worth it. I was expecting a clone of Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, but this was far from it. This is a very unique game, I have never seen anything like this and I probably won't ever see anything like this. This is Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 in almost an RPG form, I have never really liked RPGs, and no this isn't an RPG but it does have RPG elements in it, but really this is one that I enjoyed a lot. The graphics aren't awesome, and the frame rate struggles at times, but overall this is a solid game.
Pros. - Minigames are great - Good controls - Lots of different places to unlock and build rides - Riding the rides is fun - Building unfinished roller coasters is awesome - Somewhat addicting - A game the whole family can enjoy - Lots of character customization options
Cons - Weird and sometimes unfinished graphics - Choppy frame rate - Not always clear what you have to do next
Overall this is a good game that you should think about getting. I'm warning you though DON'T get the Nintendo DS version, its terrible.
