Development and release[]

It was released on September 26, 2001, alongside a website, by Walt Disney Imagineering, for members to upload and share their designs and rate rides based on Adrenaline, Technique and Originality. Designers of each week's five top-rated rides were awarded "Roller God" titles.

Two versions released in 2002, "Ultimate Ride Coaster Deluxe" and "Disney Coaster", added new features. The website closed in 2003.

Reception[]

The game received "average" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[2] Eric Bratcher of NextGen said of the game, "It's slightly under-ambitious, but this is one ride that you should definitely consider taking."[11]
