OpenRCT2 is a construction and management simulation video game that simulates amusement park management. It is an open source re-implementation and expansion of the 2002 video game RollerCoaster Tycoon 2.

In order to create an accurate clone of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, the game was incrementally written in the platform independent C programming language.[2]

OpenRCT2 was praised by multiple sources as major breakthrough of the community after the original RCT2 was orphaned by the developers.[3]. This is partly due to the reduced limitations which allow players to more easily create bigger and more complex parks.[4]
