OpenRCT2 is a construction and management simulation video game that simulates amusement park management. It is a free and open-source re-implementation and expansion of the 2002 video game RollerCoaster Tycoon 2.[2] In order to create an accurate clone of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, the game was incrementally written in the platform independent C programming language.[3] In addition to various gameplay changes, the developers fixed a number of bugs and issues that were in the original game.[4]

Gameplay


See also: RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 § Gameplay

The gameplay of OpenRCT2 is by nature of the project, very similar to the original RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 game upon which it is based. However, the re-implementation features a number of changes:[5]


Development


Development of the game was started on April 2, 2014 by Ted "IntelOrca" John, and was continued by 250 other contributors.[9][10]

In 2019, the game was brought to custom firmware Nintendo Switch systems by modder rsn8887 as a homebrew game, including touchscreen support.[2]

A major update in 2022 allowed the game to use RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic (an official port of the original games) as a base install path.[11]


Reception


PC Gamer praised the increased scope for creativity with the new toolset, adding: "you can build the park of your dreams with coasters that no sane person who values their intestines would think about riding. It’s a great way to return to such a wonderful classic PC game."[5] Vice noted that OpenRCT2 "allows players much greater freedom in what they are able to build."[8] Kotaku Australia pointed out that OpenRCT2 allows RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 to run on modern systems "just fine", and features multiplayer support, weakening the incentive to purchase the later released RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic.[12]

In 2020, Nerdist suggested OpenRCT2 among other stress-relieving games to play during the COVID-19 pandemic.[13]
