About the Game
The graphics style is charmingly cartoonish which adds to the fun, and the 3D gameplay is great for when you test out your own, newly created, rollercoaster rides. But do not let the cheerful and childlike animations fool you: the spreadsheets on the management side are tight, well-plotted and concise, allowing you to see exactly where your money is going and, more importantly, where it is coming from so you can make even more!
Within the game you have a lot of control, even in the more challenging modes when resources are restricted. You can even pick the font that is used on your park signs, so you really can plan out and place your amusement park exactly the way you want it.
Manage Everything!
The management part of the game is fairly intense and while it starts out easy – paying one mechanic and one janitor to fix one ride and clean the small park is a doddle. When you have so many employees that you start to lose track of them all, then it becomes a little more hair-raising.
Rides must be maintained to prevent queues and customer dissatisfaction, janitors must sweep and clean (and you have to provide a good number of bins around the park to keep them happy!), research and development must be ongoing so customers keep coming back, and you also have to keep an eye on your profits, balancing your desire for fat bank accounts with good staff morale and happy customers to keep the lucre rolling in!
Three Ways to Play
Sandbox: This is the creative bit, where you have unlimited resources and access to all the surrounding land. You can design the most sumptuous and exciting rides for others to enjoy, and you can enjoy them yourself – all in the name of testing only, of course! Some players much prefer this mode of play, taking their time and using the best possible materials to make enthralling and exciting rides – or recreating real life ones that they have seen for themselves
Challenge: Perhaps the most exciting way to play. You start off with a small amount of land and money, and must invest all your ingenuity and skill into turning that into profit to buy more land and build more rides. As you go along, you will be issued with challenges, the successful completion of which will bring you rewards, such as resources, cash or pieces on land on which you can build even more rides, facilities and features
Career: In this mode the goal is for you to make as much money as possible, maximising the use of your existing funds to build rides that will bring in the customers and keep them in the park, happily spending their money for as long as possible. You must balance your profits against the needs of the park and customers, fighting to keep everyone happy and pouring their currency into your pocket, while paying staff and maintaining the park well
In all three modes, you are able to use auto-finish on rides, which means that instead of agonising over angles and speeds and precise measurements, you can plot in your exciting twists and turns, your beginning and your end, and then let the computer plot the bits of track in between, presenting you with a fully completed and functioning ride.
Planet Coaster for PC is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.

Amazing game, as a fan of planet zoo, this game is pretty good. does vary a bit, but easy to get used to. Sometime you would want more freedom and removal of limitations on the roller coaster tracks to make a ride perfect, bit then again adds to realism
Sandbox
Fun vibe

I know this game has been out for a really long time, but I finally got into it. I was always a huge roller Tycoon player and I love playing the games when I was younger. I decided I wanted to get back into something like that and I found a planet coaster. I started watching videos and I couldn’t stop so I ended up getting the game and I have no regrets about it. Paths and building is a little difficult to begin with, but once you get the hang of it, you can do anything you could possibly imagine.

Amazing game, I'm rubbish at building good parks but the creativity to make whatever you want is bar none, to come up with a crazy idea in your head and recreate that is incredible. IG are amazing and I've never had any problems having bought multiple products before, would recommend to anyone!

This game is so much fun to play and so enjoyable. For those who wants to buy it, if you liked Rollercoaster Tycoon, this game is so much better then! If you are not familiar with IG, this site is LEGIT! I never had any issues with the games I bought or gifted to others!

Literally the best version of rollercoaster tycoon.
It's a spiritual successor that has almost everything you could ask for.
Many levels, coasters and rides with a much deeper mechanic then previous RCT titles.
Endless Possibilities
Updated Nostalgia
Designed with the RCT fan in mind
Deep Mechanics
UI Design
Could use better optimization

It's alright.
This game is one of those games you play when you get bored. The career mode is pretty fun and there are a lot of ways to play. You can build roller coasters, theme parks, and manage your own park. You can also download other people's parks from the Steam workshop. Overall, I think this game is pretty good for the price you can get it for on Instant Gaming. If this is something you've wanted to try, I think it's worth the ten bucks.
Realistic roller coaster simulation with detailed statistics.
Repetative gameplay.
