Management simulations have always wielded a strange hex over me. Personally, assuming the mantle of God provides unnatural and unhealthy levels of gratification. I don?t consider myself a rabid control freak; in fact I have a reluctant relationship with utter disorganisation in the real world. So why would a game like Rollercoaster Tycoon appeal then?
