WELCOME TO TIME TWISTER!
Experience a Jurassic safari, confront a mythical skeleton army and relive the golden age of
rock ‘n roll — it’s a trip back through time and forward into the future with RollerCoaster
Tycoon 2: Time Twister! History has never been more fun or addictive!
WHAT’S NEW
RollerCoaster Tycoon 2: Time Twister contains 14 new scenarios — with themes from six
terrific time periods — that you can explore at your own pace. It also includes new rides and
scenery options, but we’ll let you find those on your own. Here are some brief descriptions of
the challenges that await you in Time Twister:
PREHISTORIC
Jurassic Safari
You’ve been given the task of constructing a Jurassic-era theme park.
To optimize your visitors’ access to the exotic plant and animal
exhibits, you will need to build rides going over and into the valley.
After the Asteroid
You own a dusty old meteor crater. In the true entrepreneurial spirit,
you’ve decided to construct an asteroid theme park and convert your
seemingly worthless land into a sizeable fortune.
Stone Age
To thwart the highway developers and preserve the mysterious circle of
ancient stones, you will need to construct a Stone Age theme park and
turn a profit. However, attracting visitors might pose a challenge, as the
terrain can be a tad inhospitable.
SETUP AND INSTALLATION
NOTE: You must have the original RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 CD-ROM game installed on
your computer in order to install and play RollerCoaster Tycoon 2: Time Twister.

then on Run. Type D:\Setup and click on OK. Note: If your CD-ROM drive is assigned to a

Tycoon 2: Time Twister CD-ROM game.
5. Once installation is complete, launch RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 as you normally would — the
Time Twister expansion pack scenarios will appear in the same areas as the RollerCoaster
Tycoon 2 scenarios, at the top of the list.
Note:You must have the RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 game disc in your CD-ROM
drive to play.

run. If you do not have DirectX® 8.1 or higher installed on your computer, click “Yes” when
asked if you would like to install it.

park, which rests on the site of an old movie set. To attract business,
you will need to construct a tribute to the pioneering filmmakers who
originated the art of stop-motion animation.

You own an island of particular archaeological value. You’ve decided to
fund its preservation by constructing a theme park based on the area’s
