Planet Coaster

absolutely incredible coaster and theme park building game

really cool game i love creating the rollercoasters and watching the POV of the rollercoasters

A fun rollercoaster sim that gives you a lot of possibilities to live out your creativity. The workshop adds a lot of content too. Its really fun to play and looks great.

Fun, Very fun. This game is very fun to play around with, and see how some rollercoasters are made.

If you are looking to scratch that roller coaster tycoon itch, this is not your game. There is almost no micromanagement on how to do anything in this game. And if you're used to the controls from roller coaster tycoon, the controls in this game is going to make you want to pull your hair out.

It's hard to say this game is a tycoon game. Like sure it has management mechanics, but the actual simulation aspect is vastly underwhelming and the game itself is a massive crawl on progression.

Planet Coaster is A MUST TRY!
It's very creative.
You can do whatever you want to your park.
It's fun.
But the only problem is... the optimization, but most pc's in the day of today, will probably run it.

Honestly I don't have time to figure out a game by going through YouTube videos in absence of any meaningful tutorial. Controls clearly need to be learned as it's not intuitive at all. The game is too complex to just start without a period of classroom work which needs to be done first. Missed the refund window on it.

With the default Community Controller Layout this game runs and controls great on Steam Deck! In some ways I prefer it to keyboard and mouse, especially once you familiarize yourself with the shortcuts and control layout. I recommend setting the graphic settings to medium, but with smaller parks the game even runs well with higher settings.

brain itch, itches like sims building but better, and with coasters!

So far I have only played on the sandbox mode (where money is unlimited) and I love it. It is similar to creative mode on minecraft or zoo tycoon if you are a fan of either of those games. It has been worth every penny--I'm obsessed.

Nice Fun game but the janitors won't stop eating children

An amazing game where you can make your own theme park! You can also just mess around in sandbox mode if you want and has a tutorial if you don't know how to play. Overall i deffinetly recomend this game to anyone who likes theme parks or roller coaster design

For a game that is almost a decade old, it holds up surprisingly well. Granted, if you're more into the coasters it's recommended you install mods, but what is here is well made and fun to play with. Enjoy it for what it is, but I do recommend checking out Planet Coaster 2

This game is so addicting and relaxing! It is a really fun building game where you can make the theme park of your dreams. You can make a park for anything! This game is something I highly recommend for you to play!

it fun if you are creative, and it is a fun little game that i would play for days without end if i could.

Very good game some things better in planet coaster 2 like the paths(they are the WORST in this game) but for the most part the game was amazing i got the base game and the BTTF dlc for a total is 4 US dollars during winter sale pls buy will not regret but buy during sale otherwise very expensive

It's okay. UI isn't very intuitive and the guests get "stuck" a lot in career mode scenarios on the paths that the scenarios start with. Building a custom roller coaster is a pain, not at all as fun as the RollerCoaster Tycoon games I grew up on.

tbh is fun to make the most dumbest park ever with people dying... all with 5 stars

worst 50$ I've spent in my life terrible camera movement and very buggy with many flaws. Would not recommend this game

Very fun in sandbox, but the career mode is kinda trash tbh.

The controls are similar to Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 but in this case this game is different to its Predecessor Roller Coaster games. The Graphics in the game are top notch, I think this game isn't as bad really sure they're things in the game that seem unappealing for one example Creating Pathways in which they don't go in the direction that you wanted it to go to from time to time.

Picked this up during the winter sale and have thoroughly enjoyed it! I was looking to play something similar to roller coaster tycoon but updated and modern, and was instead given a great game that is alongside RCT without being a clone/copy. Some of the staff management does frustrate me, however, I have grown to enjoy the balance and playing through the campaign and challenges, while visiting a sandbox park when I need a break. Overall, the game is great and I look forward to see how they've built upon it in the sequel.

This game is definitely worth it's money. This game is great for young architects and roller coaster enthusiasts!

this game was very recommended to me from many people and i just don't get it cause it should on paper check boxes i enjoy but i really never had any fun in this game

Hey gaming community! 🎢 I’m absolutely loving the coaster building in this game! After being a pro RCT3 player, I can confidently say it’s a massive upgrade! Wish I’d gotten into it sooner, lol! 😄
But here’s the sad part: I have a Mac, and I just found out that Planet Coaster 2 and Planet Zoo aren’t available for me! Anyone else facing the same struggle? Let’s hope for some updates soon! 🤞

I freaking love this game
So first of all, the graphics are perfectly stylized. They're good while staying cartoony, it's amazing

Second, on gameplay, career mode is challenging but really fun if you actually play it. Sandbox is also amazing, because there are no restrictions (as sandbox says) and you just manage a park with no limits but your imagination. I love it!

Third, with the workshop, you can share things and get things that you wouldn't have come up with. You can get new ideas, and that's kind of the premise of workshop items, but that idea really does great with this game.

9/10. Please play this game

Fun theme park simulator that allows my son and I to experience roller coasters we otherwise would not be able to! So fun!

Very fun but the game is complacted in the begining, but its really fun

This Game is so fun and easy i would 100% recommend this game but i hate how some people get stuck for no reason i hate it but this game is so fun.

This is a really cool sandbox game which unleashes creativity. I highly recommend this game to people who dream big.

I saw a deal on the Steam Marketplace that got me wondering — could this be the RollerCoaster Tycoon I used to play from those old cereal box CDs? Nostalgia kicked in hard, so I grabbed it.

After a surprisingly long 6-hour download, I finally booted it up, excited to relive some childhood memories. But once I got into the game, it quickly became clear... this wasn't it. Not even close. The whole thing felt more like a parody than a proper game — clunky UI, awkward mechanics, and just not the experience I remembered at all.

Honestly, I think I grabbed the wrong version or maybe just fell for the nostalgia trap. Kinda feels like I paid for a meme. Lesson learned: double-check before buying!

Well after 131 hours and getting all the achievements in this game... I can officially say it's great, and I love it. Buy this game <3

Fun. Controls are very annoying to get it to work but once you can get use to them, the game is great

Its amazing. Great graphics, So many choices, Its highly realistic and in all its a great game. Good job Planet Coaster Creators.

Amazing simulator! Haven’t got the chance to play it for a lot of time but the game is amazing!

Lost 20000 dollars because 3000 guests were stuck on the same place. Great game.

This is one of the best theme park games out there, you will enjoy this game. The second game on the other hand is okay, but still missing a lot of content and bugs. You're better off getting this game instead.

fun game but get 2

Giving a bad review simply because of the amount of buttons in the game that will direct me to purchase a DLC, and some of them directing to DLC that i believe is unavailable.

Enjoyed the game otherwise but this is such an egregiously annoying practice.

A fun coaster tycoon game where you can do whatever you want, and I mean WHATEVER you want.

its very addictive! and i play on a old laptop but.. Its not laggy for me!

Fun game definitely worth picking up on sale. I got it at the bargain price of £1.50, no-brainer at that price.

At least for now, I recommend this over PC2. There is a better library of theming, even in the base game, and I run into less bugs. PC2 might have better bones and the potential to be better in the future, but give it a few more years to be out and playtested.

It's basically what it says on the tin. Functional update to the "Rollercoaster Tycoon" design. Arguably, the number of customization options can be overwhelming to new players, but I'm glad those options exist. I'd consult some YouTube videos of other people playing before you decide if you really want to buy it. I've been able to make some really cute projects in it, so I'm happy with my purchase.

Minor nitpicks:

1. Walkways don't snap to grids and can't be added to blueprints. This problem was fixed in PC2.

2. The selection of animatronics is decent, but you could always have more. Like... you don't even have figures of men and women waving. The availability of Thememaker's Studio is really cool though.

3. No "Roaring 20's" expansion pack, specifically. It's a niche request, but I'd argue it's less niche than "Back to the Future". I am working on some gangster and flapper human models, but I don't really know enough about Blender to be able to port them to TMT. I'm more annoyed that no new human animatronics came with the "World's Fair" expansion pack.

4. NPCs could use a few tweaks. Specifically, if you put down two high-prestige rides in your park and ten medium-to-low prestige rides, guests will walk back and forth between the two high-prestige rides, no matter how many times they've already ridden it or how long/expensive the queue is. Resulting in lines that absolutely choke some parts of the park while rides like the teacups end up being a waste of money no matter how nicely you decorate them. If the information booth sold maps which better managed foot traffic, that would be really cool. Though given the game was last updated in 2018, I'm really just daydreaming.

This game is really good, it includes everything it should have. My only complaint is how I have a very old mac, So i can't play Planet Coaster 2, and it looks super fun. But, maybe they could add the whole "Attach scenery to ride" Or A scale tool, But overall, This game deserves a 9/10 Rating.

The number of rides, stalls, and scenery pieces in the base game is unmatched. The game really allows you to be creative in how to design your park. I recommend this one if you are into management-style games because the level of detail in how you manage staff members, vendors, rides, signs for advertising, and even the ability to sync things like fireworks with certain triggers. This game provides the nostalgia of the original favorite, Roller Coaster Tycoon, but goes much more in depth, enriching the experience.

Tortured 1000+ people for 10 in-game days straight, built a death-defying rollercoaster, evaded taxes, got in jail, escaped. And then got home and played Planet Coaster 10/10 would evade taxes again

I enjoy limitation in creative games, it both gives you a bar for roughly how good you can make something, and makes the final result both more rewarding and impressive. Sometimes less is more, and this game is far too much more.

Cant have "free roam fun" no cheats for more money or more rides, definitely not what it used to be. Parks arent even big enough to fit more than one coaster.

Never really cared for the scenarios. I always liked going into sandbox mode and going crazy.
