I think the thing I learned the quickest is that using a mouse is absolutely essential. The controls for the game are fairly straightforward, but there are some nuances to moving the camera view around and navigating the coaster building controls that definitely take some getting used to. Now, of course I know that the job is very much watered down for us non-engineers in Planet Coaster form, but even still, it’s a challenging task to get used to. However, I soon realized why being a coaster designer is such a lucrative job: designing roller coasters is really hard.
With an unlimited budget and all of the possible designs unlocked, you pretty much have the entire coaster library at your fingertips. The very first thing I did in the game is most likely what many enthusiasts will do, I went into Sandbox mode and began designing coasters. Now that there’s a Mac version available, it means I can take it on the go now with my MacBook Pro! With many false starts of the series and similar games over the years from various companies, when I heard Frontier was going to come out with a new game, who were the makers of RCT3, I was quick to see what it was about! Planet Coaster is definitely a spiritual successor to the RCT franchise with new upgraded graphics, tools, ride designs, and so much more. I’ve been a long-time RollerCoaster Tycoon player and have put many hours in the series from 1 through 3. What Planet Coaster does so well is combine these two aspects, you can build a variety of custom coasters in the style of existing manufacturers, but also have the ability to manage the park, and cater to guest’s needs. Roller Coaster Tycoon was mainly about management of the park, and NoLimits is a software dedicated to giving users the best possible simulation for their mock-up coasters, even being used by many parks to promote their new attractions. While there are other coaster designing games out there like Roller Coaster Tycoon or NoLimits, they didn’t quite have the complete package that Planet Coaster does. All of the pictures below are from my own personal parks!Įver since Planet Coaster first came out, I had been dying to get my hands on it. Planet Coaster was nice enough to provide us with the game, so now that we’ve had some time to play around with it and get used to how it works, here are our reviews as well as some tips and tricks that will help your in-game park become successful. With the holiday release of Planet Coaster: Console Edition and Planet Coaster for Mac, the game is now available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Mac devices via Steam.
When Planet Coaster first arrived on PC in November of 2016 to all-around positive reviews, fans began asking for the game to be available on more platforms, and now that day is finally here.
