To celebrate Rollercoaster Tycoon Adventures Deluxe now being available on Playstation 4 and 5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox Series X|S, Atari are asking a question of the ages; which type of rollercoaster tycoon are YOU?
If you’re at all familiar with the game, you may already have an idea about where you fall on the spectrum, but usually they fall into five main categories: industrialists, competitors, artists, designers, and architects.
Curious about the type of tycoon you are? If so, let’s have a lookit the five types of tycoons, below, as defined by the team at Rollercoaster Tycoon HQ (who I envision to work in a building called Tycoon Towers):
Industrialist
Players who fall under the Industrialist archetype can be found meticulously managing every aspect of their park, with a focus on maximizing profitability and efficiency. Their unwavering dedication to in-game excellence infuses every decision they make, ensuring that their park operates at the pinnacle of success.
Competitor
Competitor players’ fulfillment comes from engaging with RollerCoaster Tycoon’s meticulously crafted scenarios, where they embrace the opportunity to tackle intricate challenges and conquer formidable objectives.
Artist
The Artist type of player brings an unparalleled eye for creative expression to the virtual world of RollerCoaster Tycoon. In the pursuit of creative passion, they invest countless hours carefully sculpting visually captivating parks and engineering breathtakingly unique rides. For the Artist, the allure of crafting immersive, picturesque environments takes precedence over the traditional pursuit of financial success within the game.
Editor note: Not going to lie, this is me right here.
Designer
The Designer takes no greater pleasure than meticulously planning their parks. The happiness of park visitors and the success of the park is a secondary goal, their true delight lies in crafting the park’s design, creating themed sections, and intricately designing pathways and gardens. The joy for them is found in the act of design itself.
Architect
The Architect type of player is passionate about building intricate roller coasters, utilizing all available tools and tricks to design the most thrilling and visually impressive rides in the game. Their focus lies in engineering and creating the most awe-inspiring roller coasters in their parks, pushing the boundaries of engineering and thrill.
