Beast
Type: wooden
Park: Kings Island, Ohio
Description: The Beast is a wooden roller coaster located at Kings Island in Mason, Ohio. It is currently the longest wooden roller coaster in the world and sprawls over 35 acres (14 ha). It was also the fastest and tallest wooden roller coaster in the world when it opened in Spring 1979. Paramount sold King's Island to Cedar Fair LP in 2006, and The Beast is now under Cedar Fair LP's ownership. (Cedar Fair's main amusement park is Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio.)
The Beast has been constantly rated as one of the top roller coasters in the world since it first opened, having earned itself a cult-like following among some coaster enthusiasts. Even after nearly 30 years, it is still the main attraction at Kings Island, located at the rear of the park in the Rivertown section. To date, over 33 million riders have ridden The Beast.

Chang
Type: stand-up, steel
Park: Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom
Description: Chang (pronounced jä[ng], meaning "long" in Mandarin Chinese) is a steel roller coaster at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom in Louisville, Kentucky. It is a stand-up coaster and at the time it opened, it set the world records for this type of coaster in height, drop, speed, length, and number of inversions. All of these records had eclipsed those of Mantis, which had opened at Cedar Point the year before, and would be eclipsed by those of Riddler’s Revenge, which opened at Six Flags Magic Mountain a year later. Its inversions are, in order: a 121 ft 7 in. tall vertical loop, 103 ft. 10 in. tall diving loop, 72 ft. tall inclined loop, and two corkscrews after the mid-course brake run.

Critter Hunt II
Description: Critter Hunt II has the following gameplay improvements over the original version:
Overall, I like this version much more than the original, as it\'s much bigger and it is much more difficult for a single player to hold a monopoly over the hunting grounds.
192x192
2-6 Players
By Eric Poggel
- Map size is now 192x192
- You must have 500 critters in your pen to win.
- The map now supports six players.
