But what will it be like? That’s the important thing, surely.

While On5 is the developer of the mobile version, however, a different developer is working on the PC version – though Chesnais would not say who “because we’re working on a bigger announcement.”

Chris Sawyer is involved with the PC project, though, which should give fans hope to hold on to. Sawyer was also involved with the recent Transport Tycoon mobile version, and we can’t give that enough praise. Seriously, you should buy it.

Elsewhere Chesnais had described Rollercoaster Tycoon 4 on PC as an online game, adding that social features will be key to the experience.

“You will be able to gift things to friends, you will be able to give a code to give something to your friend.

“We’ll be adding other things but the first things you’ll be able to do is you’ll be able to add friends to the game, be able to visit their park and you’ll be able to have access to the leaderboard and you’ll be able to see where you rank on the global level.”

It’s a feature that would actually fit quite well into Rollercoaster Tycoon 4, but will the PC game be more like the isometric original two, or the 3D third one? Sadly, all we got was “more about that in a few weeks”.

Mercifully there won’t be too long a wait for gamers to find out just how the PC equivalent of Rollercoaster Tycoon 4 will turn out, but the truth is that it’s clear Atari is determined to ensure series’ fans will want to be involved.

In the meantime, Chesnais says Atari is taking feedback from the Rollercoaster Tycoon Facebook page where Atari is “getting a lot, a lot of feedback”.

“And after that we have a splash page on PC on the website, and we’re going to expand the website to engage more efficiently with the community for the PC game.”

The mobile version is horrendous. I recommend that no one in the slightest thought ever think about buying it.

I have never played around with its predecessors but I get it is a bad game but it did get fixed. The only big change that the series needed that they added was a new a hotel.

I'll agree the game is horrible, and thats coming from someone who likes simulation games for mobile
Totally not worth $3
Mostly because the coasters defy physics

it was only $.99 when I got it
