So is this basically like getting two games in one? Have never played the orig. so wondered if this will work as both versions.

It is possible to play Tsuro of the Seas without using the dragons and have it play essentially like the original Tsuro.

You can definitely play this one without having played the original. This one has the added dynamic of the dragons roaming the seas (that have the ability to sink your boat) and being able to change direction and how many are on the board. This is not an expansion pack, so no worries. I don't know if you can play "without the dragons" but I don't see why not, especially if you have smaller children that may have a harder comprehending the dynamic of rolling dice to add dragons/change direction.

You can play it in the same way as the original, the only difference being that in Tsuro of the Seas you're a boat instead of a dragon. Both games are more or less identical, except that of the Seas features Daikaiju you need to roll for and avoid with your boat.

no differences in gameplay. just the design. it's an update from the company. that's all. the first edition will be some sort of an collector's edition now since it's out of print.

Absolutely. This isn't a continuation of the first game. This is a version of the first game with expanded game play. Set-up and reading the instructions is simple and you should be able to play and understand the game pretty quickly.

Yes. They used to be separate games, but now they all work on both platforms

You can definitely just buy this one and jump in if you are looking for an online multi player game. If you start with 1 it is not online or multi player, it is just a solo game. It depends what you are looking for.

Let me explain more in detail have you ever played a game that comes with two disks inside? The game and the other the installation for the game? It's the same thing. But this one you have you pay xD just put the disk inside your ps4,pc,or PS3,install the content,and play the game ^^

There is just one disc, so no need to change anything during the game. It worked fine with my Windows 7 laptop. I just got a new Windows 8 laptop -- haven't tried it on that yet.

If you are getting the RCT2 original version it works ok but sometimes you will have to try multiple times to launch the game. If you order RCT2 Triple Thrill Pack, that works a lot better with windows 8 and rarely crashes. I have played this game since mid 2005, I have 2 copies of each version. Very satisfying and relaxing game. I recommend it MOST HIGHLY!!!!!

I have read a post elsewhere that said it doesn't have Starforce at least on The Two Thrones, for the current $9, I'll buy this since I have been holding off on the third game because of it. Can post again once I install it and check for myself... EDIT: The game came up clean after doing a scan with ProtectionID. Unless it's hiding deep in the game, it's good! In fact, all three discs came up clean.

Game play wise, there is no difference at all. The only difference is what the Special & Collector's editions come with, (which is explained in the description) and what you are willing to pay for.

You get both. The saved games are on line and every time you play it starts exactly where you left off. Great game glad I bought it

It is an online game, you can play WITH more than 2 people at the same time. As far as yourself controlling 2 characters at the same time, I don't believe so.

I purchased this for my son. I have no idea about the in and outs of these games. He is the expert. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Yes, it is a stand alone game and you do not need to get the earlier copies. However there is additional dlc that you can purchase to expand the normal gameplay.

Looking at the other answers, it seems to vary, depending when the game was ordered. The one I got was the original version.

It depends on which version you order now. As of today, they release the trilogy all together now where some of the bonus content is included. Before purchasing, I'd do more research to make sure. This one I ordered did not though. Find the trilogy where it's all of them together and you may be able to find the package where each game has its bonus content included! :-)

Hi Kendyl, Yes this is the listing for the "original" larger game. You will see that there is also a statement that there is a newer version - this is the one one you do NOT want to purchase.
