Guide Review - "RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 Wacky Worlds Expansion Pack"
Expansion packs are made to expand and add more elements to a game. "Wacky Worlds" adds new scenarios, rides, and scenery to "RollerCoaster Tycoon 2." That's it. There are no changes to gameplay at all. Don't buy "Wacky Worlds" thinking it will change the way you will play the game, it won't. Instead it takes the same rides we've been seeing since the first "RollerCoaster Tycoon" and changes the graphics to fit the theme.
The problem with "Wacky Worlds" is that it will remind many gamers of their disappointment with "RollerCoaster Tycoon 2." If you didn't like the game before, you won't with the pack. If you adore the game just the way it is, you'll enjoy adding more rides and scenery to the game. You just can't use mix and match theme scenery throughout parks. We'll have to wait for the next version of the game to enjoy new gameplay and graphics.
