Get ready for an entirely new RollerCoaster Tycoon experience... it's wet, wild and totally soaked!
For the first time, run your own water park - and ride all the rides - with this expansion to the smash hit RollerCoaster Tycoon 3. Celebrate summer as hundreds of peeps (that's RollerCoaster Tycoon talk for "guests") catch rays and waves with an amazing line up of super-splash flume rides, massive water slides, aquatic shows, beaches and more. Blast peeps with water cannons, build them outrageous coasters, and wow 'em with laser light water shows! Get drenched with this splashy summertime addition to one of the biggest games of the year.
With RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Soaked!, the park guests will catch rays and ride the waves on more than fifty new rides and coasters including super-splash flume rides, massive water slides, wave pools and more. Players will also be able to create aquatic spectaculars with performing dolphins, killer whale shows and customisable aquariums as well as design dazzling laser light water shows and synch them to music with the H20 MixMaster. A new Swimming Pool Designer and Waterfall Designer will let players add hundreds of new park enhancements to create the ultimate summer fun experience as well as other new features that extend and enhance the original game.

The game itself is brilliant, the ability to create your own fully personalised theme park is great. You can even go online and trade rollercoasters with others (You can make other rides than rollercoasters in the game!). There are nearly a 100 or so different types of rides (different types of coasters too!)maybe more. There are weather effects and scenarios and different areas to build your own park. Or you can create you own area with the sandbox mode. This is where you get a huge piece of land and build whatever you like. Such as reforming the land, don't forget the rides. You can even design your own guests. There are loads of facilities to choose from as well as rides, staff also. You can create beautiful gardens and amazing landscapes. The soaked expansion adds even more fun aswell, there is another expansion out now aswell. Where you create your own zoo aswell. Soaked gives you more rides and features and scenarios and other things. The main thing with soaked is to build more of a water park!
The game has a huge lifespan (I'm still playing it) and a must buy. Thanks to Atari and Frontier for their great efforts into making a great game!
Being completely new, the interface at first was overwhelming. I completed the tutorials but still found myself getting lost with so much to deal with, and ended up leaving the game after a few hours.
Soon enough though, I felt the clarion call of the game pulling me back, and this time found myself maddeningly addicted. After a while spent with the game you learn to recognise things such as raised entrances/exits (as the landscape is fully 3D) and how to deal with them appropriately. Attention to detail is the key here; a fantastic amount was put into the design of the game, and as such it demands a fair amount back from you. After the first few scenarios though the workings are second nature, and you won't be able to stop yourself creating enormous parks long after you've achieved your gold medal (Tycoon status). Contrary to another reviewer I found the scenarios very well paced and challenging whilst never impossible, and they provide a great sense of purpose compared to the endless and open Sandbox mode, which quite frankly bores me to tears.
The central feature of the game, as the name suggests, is the joy of rollercoasters. These rides will pull in more customers and money than anything else in your park, and if well designed can keep a park going almost on their own.... Read more ›
So how is the game? If you have played 1& 2 then 3 continues on, you have to build up a them park from nothing into a glorious business empire. The first few scenarios wont be of any trouble to get you familiar with the game, but then it starts to get challenging and you get better rides and coasters as you progress.
The graphics are pretty good, and the attention to detail is top notch...it is certainly an improvement on RC2. Sandbox mode is good fun if you dont want to play the career as you can build anything (unlimited money). The soaked expansion pack is also really good, giving you the ability to build brilliant pools with great water slides and features.
Overall a top notch game for simulation lovers and would recommend it!
So please, if your going to slate this game, make it for a genuine reason!
10/10 - the most realistic theme park game ever produced!
It just makes no sense at all. Read more
I loved rct 1 and 2 and will still play 2 after playing 3!
Yes the graphics are great, BUT unfortunately that is it!!!! Read more
