Older PC Games
I would love to play the old Zoo Tycoon game and the old Barbie PC games. Everywhere I find online, the files are not correct. Is there any way we can ask Steam to supply some more of these older PC games to play? I LOVE Roller Coaster Tycoon. Just trying to find more of the older games I loved playing as a kid.

You have to ask their publishers, not Valve/Steam

So are you saying that you tried to pirate, but files are not correct?

Sounds like skill issue to me.

You have to drop a line to the current IP holder for those games and let them know that people wanna buy. Though I don't think the Barbie game is gonna be a go since there are likely licensing issues between the dev, the pub, and Matel

Zoo Tycoon: Ultimate Animal Collection is on Steam

RollerCoaster Tycoon Deluxe, RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic, RollerCoaster Tycoon 2: Triple Thrill Pack, RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Editor are all on Steam.

Any games not made by Valve that you want to see, you'd want to contact the Rights Holders for those. There was also recently a sale that ended on Monday for some classic games.

Another series of older games you might want to look into:

This is a good way to keep track of not only old PC games, but also old console games that become available on Steam:

I don't have many computer skills lol. I found some websites that have older games to play but the resolution is never correct no matter what I do with the settings on my computer. Steam has been the easiest place I've found to play older games. Just looking for assistance/answers

Indeed. That is sthe best way to easily and legally buy older games that are mostly playable 'out of the box' on modern PCs.
