The game's load screen

The game's menu screen follows the load screen The three icons are: - Build a roller coaster - Ride a roller coaster - Exit to Windows

The 'Build A Roller Coaster' menu screen The three panels allow the player to select a location, a style of coaster and a style of coaster carriage

The first screen in building a coaster. The buttons on the left change the players viewpoint The bar along the bottom of the screen shows the pieces of track that can be laid next

Here the game offers no more track sections This is because track would enter the scenery. The last piece must be deleted and a design rethink is needed

It's very easy to design a complex track

While it's easy to design a complex track there can be problems when the ends don't meet up Another design rethink is needed

A track has been completed and immediately this menu pops up. The options are save, load, exit, ride the track (greyed out), test the track and demolish the track

While the track is being tested the camera follows the carriages around. This is one of those tracks where passengers hang beneath the track instead of riding on it

The test results Not exactly stomach churning but it's early days

This is the 'Save Track' option Got to be careful not to overwrite a previous track

Now the track is tested the player gats a chance to ride on it. This is one of those tracks where passengers hang beneath the track instead of riding on it

This is a rebuild of the track layout shown in previous screen shots but built using a different style of roller coaster

A more traditional style of roller coaster is being tested

This is the coaster selection screen The game comes with five pre-built roller coasters which the player can ride.

Riding one of the pre-build roller coasters The 800x600 screen resolution does not really do it justice

Riding a pre-built roller coaster This shows something of the size of the terrain that is available to build in

Pulling into the station house at the end of a ride The web site is for a company that sells component parts for roller coaster modellers

Before the game starts up the player is asked to select an appropriate video mode
