Needs Soaked and Wild
I like RTC3 but not having the Soaked DLC or even the Wild DLC that’s available on the PC version would be awesome 🤩 we have lots more options…

Needs a update BADLY
I’ve played this game since around 2015-2016 and I’ve loved this game since. The problem is that this game has not had a update in 10 years. I’m not sure if they just abandoned it at this point but I would love for them to update this game at least one more time.

Park is Full
I bought RCT 3 for iPad. It was great for a couple days. I was building a beautiful park and having fun. I had only built on maybe 1/4 of the land available. My iPad is new and I had a lot of space on iPad. However RCT3 suddenly gave me a message that my park was full and I could no longer build.

Needs to be updated here’s why…
The reason why this game needs to be updated is because this game is very fun and I played it on my iPhone 11 it wasn’t bad except for the borders on the screen but I got a new phone and the game has big borders. I mean it is playable but still it has not been updated in 9 years. Devs please respond.

Park Full
Can no longer build in any of the parks because it says park full. There is space in the park for new and I even tried deleting rides and starting a new park. Such a disappointment, I enjoyed it for the week I got to use the app, sad I paid for it.

THE BEST
I downloaded this a couple days ago and I love it! You’re able to try out some of your rides, and I’ve been playing Sandbox mode, so I have unlimited money! I have 700+ people (peeps) in my park! Only thing, wish you could pay coins to hav more space! Please read!

Could be better.
You get cut off on building in sandbox mode. I was so excited to find this app since I played it when I was young. Started building and I got cut off with a message saying I’m no longer allowed to build because my park is full. I used maybe 40% of the space provided to me and now can’t go any further. So why give that huge space if we can’t use it? I have reach out to the developer with no response so if this is something I’m doing wrong please let me know. Otherwise, I think I wasted $5 😑

Good game but needs updating
I love this game a lot I’ve been playing this for a couple years and ever since I’ve been playing I’ve always felt like it was in need of updating, like maybe adding features that are in other versions of the game and making it feel more dated and possibly cropping the screen to fit for newer phones/iPad’s. This version of the game is in need of some love !

Needs Updated for Modern Phones
I used to play this all the time on my old iPhone 6 Plus back when this game was re-released for phones (RCT is my favorite computer game series). But I recently redownloaded this and realized the screen is super cropped in and still runs the same (if not, a bit worse) than it did on my 6 Plus. It’s in seriously dire need for a touch up.

Wonderful game but needs to be updated
I’ve started playing again because I got hooked on RCT2 from the Arcade. Would love to see this game as well as the expansions in the Arcade! These are some of my favorite types of games and love that they have become accessible on my phone. It’s unlocked a new mode of gaming for me and see potential in releasing older titles on the Arcade.

Good but some thoughts
I love this game but RCT classic is just better because it’s well… Classic Atari plz give us the option to play in the classic game style? And more of a difficulty curve in the career mode and make it easier to make a coaster without ultra intense intensity plz. Thank you for reading this and have a good day 😁

Game Keeps Crashing

Best roller coaster game at mobile, but...
The game is ended great, it has awesome controls to build rides, and it makes it easy to make loops, it even has its own themes at the "props". Like space themed, western themed, I forgot how it was called but something like Jurassic themed. But the space is ended large but it's limited, and also I can build roller coasters at only half the space and then it will say "park full", so it is ended great, but there are some downs. Oh, and you can't make water parks or a zoo.

Building has been disabled notification in sandbox mode
I have been playing this game for a year now it’s a great game, very fun and relaxing. But one problem when you’re in sandbox mode it’s limited due the “building has been disabled” notification I wanted to expand more but I can’t because of the notification. I have to keep making new parks, so I don’t know if this is a bug or something, please fix this, thank you.

Park Full?!
I paid for this app, built 10% of a park in Sandbox mode with only 5 coasters, and now it’s telling me the park is full and it disabled any more building. Nice.
Unless you want to pay for an hour of playtime and then get a “brick” for an app, DO NOT BUY IT!!!

Crashes on opening Career Mode
* DO NOT BUY THIS VERSION ! *
Opens tiny window on M1 Max Mac Pro w/32GB memory. Then CRASHES when clicking on Career Mode. UNPLAYABLE. Tutorials take you to YouTube videos which you CAN NOT watch unless you have a signed in Google account. Luckily it was only $4.99, and I'll try to get that back.

Needs “Soaked” & “Wild”
For a start, it’s great to be able to build parks again, but one of things I miss from here is the Soaked and Wild themes from RCT3. Would be nice to have that included.

Great for a port.. however, missing the add ons like animals and soaked.
Also missing fireworks and transition from night to day so you can see the lights turn on.
Add those and it’ll be a true port

It's a really good classic game but horrible port
The game on PC is good but this mobile port is terrible, you can only have 3 parks and if you make a new one, it deletes one of your other parks without telling you, it's missing the Soaked and Wild expansion packs, it doesn't fill the screen on modern iPhones, it instead runs in a small black box, it run sat an even lower resolution, like 480p, it's locked at 25 FPS, it has auto save but it turns itsself off in the settings Everytime you play the game so you'll have to turn it back on every time, the graphics and pop in are terrible, the game was designed to run on the iPhone 5 and still runs the same on every phone and you can't change the graphics, sometimes pop-ups come up and there is no "ok" button and there is literaly no way to make it go away, also the game sometimes crashes when placing entrances and exits, it's also missing some options that the PC versions has like being able to change the park location in the background and the park size and stuff, also the camera and touch controls are good but it's annoying how the camera is stuck looking down at a specific angle, you can pivot the camera down but it will only stay there for like 1 second before moving back up by itself. Also this game does not work with controllers, I know it came out before the Nintendo Switch Port but that would be cool if you could connect a controller and then play the game with the same UI and stuff as the switch verison has, also the graphics on the switch version look so much better than the mobile port, that's proof that newer phones can run the game in better graphics. Also sometimes a message comes up saying that your close to the park limit but then there is no park limit, it's really weird. Also the worst part about this game is that you cannot listen to music on your phone in the background, it pauses the music no matter what, I tried everything, I tried turning the music in the settings completely off and trying everything, nothing works. Also the you cannot toggle on and off open and closed water slide pieces for the Dingy Slide and Water Tracks for the Water Coaster, there is a mysterious button that spears but it seems to be blurred out for some reason, as if they were making the Ui for toggling on and off water tracks and then just never finished it and pushed the game out like that. There is so much wasted potential here, they could have remastered the game to work better on phones, like they could add in a multiplayer mode where multiple people could work on the same park over Bluetooth or wifi, or different touch screen controls and ways to control the camera like in the PC edition, or maybe a way to render a POV of your coasters or something, like stuff that would be exclusive to phones or something. Or at least they could just update the game and make the graphics better and make it run in the right resolution

That Was A Waste of Money
Downloaded it only to have it error out every time I try to open it. Was a waste of time and money. Now I have to "request" a refund... I'm sure that will happen easily (he said sarcistically).

Please Fix The Issues
Downloaded the game and decided to play the sandlot version just to get practice. I built up my entire park just to realize later that I could not save any of my progress. Later i tried to play in career mode and the game continued to crash every time i tried to play. I currently have a iMac. When i first downloaded it said that it was compatible with this device. Anyone else having this issue? Where you able to fix the problem?

Exactly like the PC version!
What more could you want! I still play this game on PC and honestly that's the best place to play it, but if you're not home or don't have a PC this is the second best place! It's def worth the price!
Edit: I still play this! Please update it for the newer phones and add 120fps, or at least 60! The 30 fps is terrible in 2024!
