Tycoon games, what are some easy ones to get into?

[leon101]

I have tried several of them, and I just plain suck (simcity 4, I failed in the first five minutes I went bankrupt and had to delete my city and start new, no joking!) so what are some that are chellenging but that EVEN I couldn't fail in the first 5 minutes.

Try Transport Deluxe for Windows. I'm having trouble running it on WinXP, it is possible to get it to work properly with a patch though.

But if you really can't get it to work, there is also an opensource clone of this game available here.

I would actually recommend the openTTD it has all (I think) the stuff from deluxe, plus it's available in online multiplayer, has improved construction, and a whole bunch of nifty extra-options.

Transpor tycoon and zoo tycoon (the first one, not the second one for god's sake).

OpenTTD is still in it's betà phase and not all of the planned features are implemented yet and not all of the features that are implemented work properly, but it's very well worth a try and it's allready pretty good.

For me rollercoater tycoon 2 goes all out to the max for me I love that one I like zoo tycoon 1 too! haven't played number 2.

I'd say the first Roller coaster tycoon is the easiest to get into. Its easy, and once you get a lot of money, there isn't an end to all the rides you can build. Fun too!

If, like me, you really like Transport Tycoon Deluxe, try OpenTTD. It's a community project that basically re-creates the entire TTD game, but with some nice extras, and versions built for XP, Vista, Linux, OS X and some others.
You'll need the original TTD game files though for the artwork and scenarios.

Same here, for me Rollercoaster Tycoon was the easiest Tycoon game to get into. The first one, not the second :-) couldn't even finish one of the first levels...

I Would say that Railroad tycoon 1 (3 is more harder i think, as there are many other options to beware of as you play the game, but after som tries it will be a little easyer) and Zoo Tycoon are Easy to get into

Roller Coaster Tycoon games are best imo..

They are really good, try get into them..
