RollerCoaster Tycoon

RollerCoaster Tycoon is a 1999 construction and management simulation video game developed, designed and programmed by Chris Sawyer. It was published by Hasbro Interactive under the MicroProse label for Windows. Frontier Developments developed an Xbox port, which was released in 2003. It is the first game in the RollerCoaster Tycoon series. In the game, players build and manage amusement parks, constructing rides and shops, designing custom roller coasters, hiring staff, and meeting scenario objectives. Sawyer conceived the game after the commercial success of Transport Tycoon and wrote nearly all of it in x86 assembly language, with art by Simon Foster and music by Allister Brimble.
