I hope you weren't hoping to sleep this weekend, because it's time to revisit those long nights of the late '90s and early 2000s with RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic. It's a blend of the first two games in the franchise with 95 scenarios to play through.

The game's been developed by Origin8 Technologies, but Chris Sawyer, developer of the original RollerCoaster Tycoon titles stepped in as producer for Classic. "It was my long term ambition to bring the classic game to modern touch screen devices as its visual style and tactile nature are so well suited to smartphones and tablets," Sawyer said. "Working with Origin8 Technologies' development team, we have been able to modernize the classic gameplay for touch screen devices while preserving the unique graphical style of the original RCT games."

Classic is fully featured, allowing you to build pre-made coasters in parks you are probably well-acquainted with, but you'll still be able to design your own physics-defying rides. RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic will cost you $5.99, and the only in-app purchases you'll stumble across are the expansion packs from RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 for $1.99 each.
