    This game is a classic love it or hate it scenario. Even the "professional" reviews are glowing or burning on this title.

    Similar to Rollercoaster Tycoon and Thrillville with some Boom Blox and Flatout throw in. You can build rollercoasters like the former games, but you can also destroy your creations and watch the people riding the coasters go loco as you bring the coaster down. Graphics are nice, though the frame-rate at times goes below 30, but not very often.

    Personally I like it a lot....will I spend countless hours on this? Probably not...but as more of my online friends get it and post scores to beat I will return. That is the drive for me.....

    The only real cons I have are the track sharing could have been done better. It doesn't show how many people have played created tracks, scores, nothing. You can filter down for searches with good detail but this is a major miss in my book. Also...when creating a track in sandbox....once you complete the track I cannot figure out how to go back and edit it.....it gets blacked out and you are stuck with what you have. Only way I have found to get around this is get the track ALMOST finished but don't finish it.

    Overall.....a 8 is a very good score for this game. It is solidly made, fun to play and my wife even enjoys watching the destruction.    … Expand

    Quality game. Downloaded today and its endless fun. Not sure why people are hating on this. If people are rating this a 0 because they have a ps4 and have not played the game then its pathetic.

    This is not a theme park simulator and as long as you dont expect that then you will really enjoy the game.

    A game that is fun to play, who would have thought of such a thing besides Nintendo. I would rather play this then 1886, any day. Xbox One with another solid exclusive.

    this is insanely fun. first off. this game has amazing physics and destructability with particle effects everywhere, amazing to look at.

    i can see myslef playing screamride for a long time, creating tracks just to see your riders crash into a building is always fun and trying to beat your friends highscore is also challenging but keeps you wanting to play more and more. definetely worth it!

    Another Xbox one Exclusive. Microsoft keeps pumping games out. I know this game isn't a AAA exclusive,but it's a lot better than the indie sidescrollers that are on ps now or the game you're getting for free on either console. This games is SOO fun. It's something different and exciting. It has 3 different categories so it doesn't get boring. The career mode is a blast. The animations areAnother Xbox one Exclusive.

This games is SOO fun. It's something different and exciting. It has 3 different categories so it doesn't get boring. The career mode is a blast. The animations are nice though can get sort of repetitive at time. Controls voice is such a breath of fresh air. Her silly humor is so fun and keeps things interesting and keeps you smiling throughout. The game is less than the price of a full retail release its only 39.99 instead of 59.99 and I gotta say it's great value from what I've played so far. Microsoft hasn't let us gamers down with the quality of games!! Thank the lord I bought an XBOX ONE!! Keep EM coming MICROSOFT!!!! … Expand

    ScreamRide is a pleasant surprise. What’s more, it was developed by Elite: Dangerous studio Frontier Developments. As it turns out, they’re adept at both space simulation and theme park design.

    The game modes may keep you hooked, but the good stuff is obscured through a poor UI. [May 2015, p.71]

    If you expected Screamride to be a theme park tycoon, think again, because it’s just a collection of three casual minigames. [05/2015, p.59]
