    A nice addition to the franchise. Creating water parks is easy and fun, though I would have liked a few more options for decor.

    Not only does Soaked! include all the latest updates to clean up the gameplay, but it also tosses in a ton of new content that's beautiful to behold.

    Soaked will give you countless hours of fun as long as you take the time to learn how to properly play all of the modes.

    It adds a wealth of new content to the game, not just around the water theme but in other areas as well. RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 feels more complete and polished with the expansion.

    One of the nicer new features are challenges, mini-goals within an existing scenario that you can choose to do if you'd like.

    Not only did they add a bunch of new content, rides, scenery, and events, but they even added completely new features (like the tunnels, elevators, laser shows, etc.)

    Watery additions aside, the rest of the game is pretty much business as usual. The parks need cleaners and repairmen to keep the rides running, and the punters need well-placed ATMs and stalls to shop at.

    Drowning in bonus content. Not only is it worth the admission price, but it's really a must-buy for RCT 3 owners. [Sept 2005, p.71]

    A very nice expansion pack for a very mediocre game. The additions are numerous and well designed, and they give you a lot of new options while playing the game, but they don’t really change how the game is played.

    Owners of the latest tycoon title can expect a wealth of fresh features from this timely expansion pack.

    A wet and wild expansion pack. Fans of the original will be inspired. [GamesMaster]

    The rides are also animated very well, but the best of the graphical action has to be reserved for the ‘Coaster Cam’, being able to view all the new water rides in the park in first person just adds that little bit more to an already decent experience.

    As exciting as a glass of water, but a whole bathtub more depth. [Sept 2005, p.95]

    Delivers some nice little twists on the theme park genre and is worth picking up if you're a fan of the series.

    All RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 fans will certainly love getting "Soaked!"

    The interactivity is a joy, and the amount of content included in this expansion is amazing.

ThisCleans up many issues the original had while adding tons of new content with a main focus on water themed rides and attractions. This expansion is certainly a must if you have troubles with the original game or if the original lacks content. Atari has also made deals with Hershey’s and REESE’S to add a couple of rides with their branding on it… Full Review »

    Water looks amazing. If this is what the results are with DX9 then i can't wait to see how this will look with DX10.
