RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic is back on Android phones

Android phone users will be able to revisit a classic title on their device again.

RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic is back on Android via the Google Play store for $5.99 here. Atari teamed up with St. Louis-based studio Graphite Lab to help bring the game back after gaining the original source code. The title originally left Google Play store last year.

Ethan Stearns, VP of Games Publishing, Atari said this about RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic’s return to Android:

“We’re very excited to bring this fan favorite back to players around the world, and even better as we are celebrating the 25th anniversary of RollerCoaster Tycoon creator Chris Sawyer’s timeless achievement.”
