Definately a great game and so glad it got marked down to $30, worth every penny. Not nearly as in depth as Roller Coaster Tycoon, but you can still make some pretty cool coasters. Park management is simple but that makes it more accessible to the kiddies. My only nitpick is the stupid power limitation....you should be able to buy a new generator for $10,000 or something to further expand your park, that would make it 100 times better. Most of the minigames are great straight away, but there are a few that will have you scratching your head until you figure out the point of them. But classic throw backs to 1942, Super Mario Brothers, Super Sprint, and other easily recognizable games are great and you'll be playing them quite a bit. Flirting with girls is pretty funny with the STUPIDEST pickup lines you ever heard...haven't played as a girl yet, but I'm sure they have rediculous lines for the boys as well. Flirting with a robot that then tells you it wants the "creepy human" to leave it alone is a classic.
Adults may want to strangle Doc Brown (or whatever his name is), but I found him funny and tolerable. Perfect game to play with young kids. Even if the youngsters don't understand how to build stuff or whatever, they can easily go around playing minigames and going on rides by themselves.
