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.
1. Start Windows® 98/Me/2000/XP.
2. Insert the RollerCoaster Tycoon 2: Time Twister CD-ROM game disc into your CD-ROM
drive.
3. If AutoPlay is enabled, a title screen should appear. If AutoPlay is not enabled, or the installation does not start automatically, click on the Start button on your Windows® taskbar,
then on Run. Type D:\Setup and click on OK. Note: If your CD-ROM drive is assigned to a
letter other than D, substitute that letter.
4. Follow the remainder of the on-screen instructions to finish installing the RollerCoaster
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.
Installation of DirectX®
The RollerCoaster Tycoon 2:Time Twister CD-ROM requires DirectX® 8.1 or higher in order to
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.
SAVING AND LOADING
Saving and loading games and rides in Time Twister is exactly the same as saving and loading
games and rides in RollerCoaster Tycoon 2.

ROARING TWENTIES
Prison Island
The infamous Prison Island — whose population once swelled with
bootleggers and racketeers — is now up for sale. You’ve decided to
convert it into a top tourist attraction, and money is no object!
Schneider Cup
The 75th anniversary of your grandfather’s Schneider Cup victory is
coming up in a few years.You’re going to honor his achievement by
building a theme park based on the famous seaplane race.
Skyscrapers
You own an empty lot near the low-rise part of town.To squeeze the
most out of your urban property, build a skyscraper theme park inspired
by the soaring art deco architecture of the twenties.
MYTHOLOGY
Film Set
You’ve been given the task of running and improving an existing theme
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.
Cradle of Civilization
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
rich mythological heritage.
DARK AGE
Cliffside Castle
Local members of the battle re-enactment society are rather serious
about their hobby. They’ve entrusted you with the job of constructing a
Dark Age theme park on the grounds of Cliffside Castle.
Robin Hood
To liberate wealth from the rich and distribute it to the needy, you and
your Merry Men have decided to build a theme park in Sherwood Forest.

Great News! We’ve improved our Automated Systems so that you can get product-specific
Troubleshooting help more quickly.All you need to do is enter the product’s Part # when
prompted to do so. This will take you directly to all of our known issues and solutions for this

Automated System, enter the last five digits of your product’s Part #. (For example, Part #
