Glitched

The game is really fun, but this glitch makes it almost unplayable. Every time I build a new roller coaster, it breaks down immediately after the first ride. It’s incredibly frustrating to spend time building a coaster just for it to stop working after one use. This seems like a pretty major bug that needs to be fixed. It’s unfortunate because RCT Classic is genuinely a great game, but this issue seriously ruins the experience.

Add ons didn’t work

I purchased one of the add ons and Apple told me I had a successful purchase, however it did not go through on the developers end. Disappointed as I would like to play more parks.
